These units are to be connected to the equipotent conductor. Due to the increased safety
requirements medical instruments may not be connected via extension leads or multi-way
connectors.
1.4 Protection against the danger of electrical shocks
Casing and cover: Parts of non-medical electric devices
within the surrounding of the subject, which, after
having taken off the coverings etc. without the use of
tools for a routine maintenance etc., are in touchable
reach, have to operate with a voltage that does not
exceed 25 volt alternate voltage and 60 volt direct
voltage, which is produced by a separate source as
described in IEC 601-1. According to this example the
leakage current would flow from the electric device to the earth end subject via the therapist/doctor.
1.5 Environmental requirements
MediTouch systems are not to be used in medically utilized rooms with a danger of explosions or in
easily inflammable atmospheres. The devices must not be installed near to e.g. an x-ray device,
motors or transformer with high connection power, as the electric and magnetic interference can
falsify measurements or even make them impossible. High voltage lines must be avoided nearby the
device. MediTouch electrical devices with mains connections must neither be used in wet and humid
areas (e.g. swimming pool, sauna, etc.) nor in environmental chambers.
If not stated otherwise in the delivery information MediTouch devices are designed for operation in
normal climatic surroundings (DIN IEC 601-1):
Temperature: + 10° ... + 40° C
Relative humidity: 30 ... 70 % (non-condensing!)
Air pressure: < 1.5 bar (approx. 10,000 feet (3000m), without pressurization)
The system has to be protected from high humidity. Store the devices at a temperature of
–
20° ... +
50° C.
Electrical equipment [3] and a subject [1] must never be touched by the doctor or trainer [2]
at the same time.
