Electromagnetic Emission and Interference Immunity
ERGO-FIT machines were developed in accordance with DIN EN 60601-1-2: 2015
standard for electromagnetic interference, requirements and tests. This standard provides
basic safety information and covers the essential performance characteristics in the
presence of electromagnetic disturbances and the electromagnetic disturbances
emanating from the medical devices, depending on the electromagnetic environment in
which the machines are used. Locations for the intended use of ERGO-FIT devices are
professional healthcare facilities, except in the vicinity of RF surgical equipment and
outside the RF shielded room of a ME system for magnetic resonance imaging, as well as
in home healthcare areas (e.g. medical practices that are associated with the public supply
network).
As is the case with any electrically operated device, 100% fault-free operation cannot be
guaranteed. Interactions or disturbances may occur in certain areas with high intensity
interferences. The following warnings should be observed:
WARNING:
⊗
Danger of malfunction!
Avoid operating the machine immediately next to other devices or when
stacked with other devices. If such use becomes necessary, ERGO-FIT equipment
and other equipment must be monitored to ensure proper operation.
⊗
Possibility of increased electromagnetic emissions and reduced electromagnetic
immunity of this device! Danger of malfunction! Do not use accessories or
cables
other than those specified or supplied by the manufacturer. (machine
connection cable, interface cable (network))
⊗
Deteriorated performance of the machine!
Portable RF communications equipment (including such accessories as
antenna cables and external antennas) must be at least 30 cm (12 inches)
away from any part of the
ERGO-FIT
system, including the cables specified by
the manufacturer.
If electromagnetic interference should occur in connection with a device, we recommend
the following measures:
⊗
Change the orientation or location of the neighboring device.
⊗
Increase the distance between the devices.
⊗
Connect the monitor and the other devices to sockets of different circuits.
⊗
Contact the manufacturer or a service technician.
These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected
by absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people.
