REGULATORY & ENVIRONMENTAL
3.1
Regulatory Overview
As this is an electronic device, it is governed by different regulations and standards around the world. In
order to comply with these standards, iPulse performs rigorous compliance & safety tests through
registered test centers across the globe and uses these results to apply for certification from different
authorities and bodies.
As many of these standards are self-regulated, iPulse stores copies of all test results, and related
documentation, in physical files, which are kept at various addresses depending on the requirements of
the specific standard.
At a minimum, iPulse keeps copies of all documentation at its US headquarters, which are based at the
following address:

United States of America
The Federal Code of Regulation (CFR) FCC Part 15 is a common testing standard for
most electronic equipment. FCC Part 15 covers the regulations under which an
intentional, unintentional, or incidental radiator can be operated without an
individual license. FCC Part 15 covers as well the technical specifications,
administrative requirements and other conditions relating to the marketing of FCC
Part 15 devices. Depending on the type of the equipment, verification, declaration
of conformity, or certification is the process for FCC Part 15 compliance.
More information about FCC certification can be found on Wikipedia at the following web address:

The iPB4 range of biometric devices has been extensively tested and found to be compliant with
Part 15
of the FCC Rules
, under which it is defined as a
Class B Digital Device
.
A Digital Device is defined as an unintentional radiator (device or system) that generates and uses timing
signals or pulses at a rate in excess of 9,000 pulses (cycles) per second and uses digital techniques; inclusive
of telephone equipment that uses digital techniques or any device or system that generates and uses radio
frequency energy for the purpose of performing data processing functions such as electronics
computations, operations, transformations, recording, filing, sorting, storage, retrieval, or transfer.
Furthermore, the iPB4 range of biometric devices are defined as Class B Digital Devices, which means that
they are marketed for use in a residential, commercial, industrial or business environment. The Class B
certification means that they may be used by the general public or in the home, as well as in the workplace.
