Safety considerations
Before you connect system to the mains socket, carefully read
and understand all the installation instructions in Section 6.
The system has been designed to comply with the following
regulatory standards for Safety and Electromagnetic
Compatibility:
• IEC60601-1, UL60601-1 & CAN/CSA-C22.2 No 601.1
• IEC60601-1-2
Although compliant with applicable EMC standards, this
equipment may still be susceptible to excessive emissions and/or
may interfere with other more sensitive material. This system
should be installed and used following the EMC environment
guidelines contained in section 13 of this manual.
This system should only be used in conjunction with the relevant
accessories and mains leads as supplied by the manufacturer or
distributor. Failure to do this may affect the EMC performance
of the system i.e. increased emissions or reduced immunity.
Relevant accessories are listed in the Spare Parts and
Accessories section.
Ensure the equipment is positioned in such a way that it can
be disconnected from the mains easily.
For your own safety and the safety of the equipment,
always take the following precautions:
• Ensure that the system is inspected by properly trained
personnel once per annum for performance and safety checks
• Inspect the Cryo probe hose and silicone ‘O’ rings for damage
before every use. If there is any sign of damage return to the
manufacturer for servicing prior to use
• Do not try to straighten a bent Cryo tip
• Do not try to re-shape a Cryo tip
• Ensure that the system is clean and dry prior to storage
• Keep this operator manual safe for future reference.
