Guidance and Manufacturer’s Declaration – Electromagnetic Immunity
The Bone Growth Stimulator is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment specified
below. The customer or the user of the Bone Growth Stimulator should assure that it is used in
such an environment.

Portable and mobile RF communications
equipment should be used no closer to
any part of the Bone Growth Stimulator,
including cables, than the recommended
separation distance calculated from the
equation applicable to the frequency of
the transmitter.

where P is the maximum output power
rating of the transmitter in watts (W)
according to the transmitter manufacturer
and d is the recommended separation
distance in meters (m).
Field strengths from fixed RF transmitters,
as determined by an electromagnetic
site survey,
a
should be less than the
compliance level in each frequency
range.

Interference may occur in the vicinity of
equipment marked with the following
symbol:

NOTE 1: At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies
NOTE 2: These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is
affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people
a
Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless)
telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast
cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due
to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured
field strength in the location in which the Bone Growth Stimulator is used exceeds the applicable
RF compliance level above, the Bone Growth Stimulator should be observed to verify normal
operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as
reorienting or relocating the Bone Growth Stimulator.
b
Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than [V1] V/m.
