Radio Frequency (RF) exposure limits
for operators of this device
In order for this device to comply with FCC-adopted RF exposure limits, precautions must
be taken. To meet the requirements of the FCC’s Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE)
guidelines, persons should not be closer than 20 inches (23cm) to a transmitting
antenna.
For installations where an operator must handle a tag or diagnostic tool closer than 20
inches to the transmitting antenna, the operator should ensure that the RF antenna is not
transmitting prior to positioning the tag or tool. Once the operator has positioned the
tag or diagnostoc tool, and moved away a minimum of 20 inches from the antenna, the
antenna can be re-activated. For all installations labels must be placed on individual
antennas, or signs must be displayed, indicating “CAUTION: A minimum separation
distance of 20 inches must be maintained between an antenna and persons for meeting
FCC RF Exposure compliance. See Users manual for details on operation requirements.”
For more information on RF Exposure , where incidental exposure may exceed the above
guideline, please refer to the FCC Office of Engineering and Technology Bulletin 65,
Supplement C, Guidelines for Human Exposure to Radiofrequency Electromagnetic
Fields, available online at:
