Powered Chair Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) 

Because  EM  energy  rapidly  becomes  more  intense  the  closer  one  moves  to  the 

transmitting antenna (source), the EM fields from hand-held radio sources (transceivers) 

are  of  special  concern.  It  is  possible  to  unintentionally  bring  high  levels  of  EM  energy 

very close to the Powerchair’s control system while using these devices. This can affect 

the  Powerchair’s  movement  and  braking.  Therefore,  the  warnings  listed  below  are 

recommended  to  prevent  possible  interference  with  the  control  system  of  the 

Powerchair. 

 

WARNINGS 

 

The  following  warnings  listed  below  should  reduce  the  chance  of  unintended  brake 

release or Powerchair movement, which could result in serious injury. 

1.  Do  not  operate  hand-held  transceivers  (transmitter-receivers),  such  as  citizens 

band  (CB)  radios, or  turn ON personal communication devices, such as cellular 

phones, while the Powerchair is turned ON. 

2.  Be  aware  of  nearby  transmitters,  such  as  radio  or  TV  stations,  and  try  to  avoid 

coming close to them.  

3.  If  unintended  movement  or  brake  release  occurs,  turn  the  Powerchair  OFF  as 

soon as it is safe. 

4.  Be  aware  that  adding  accessories  or  components,  or  modifying  the  Powerchair 

may make it more susceptible to EMI.   

 

NOTE: There is no easy way to evaluate the overall  immunity of the powered 

chair. 

 

Report all incidents of  unintended movement or brake  to  your Powerchair provider, and 

note whether there are sources of EMI nearby. 

 

NOTE: The Shark controller EMI rating is FDA Regulated and conforms to federal 

regulations.
