PXCM Safety and Compliance Information
Environment
The operating environment is 10
°
to 50
°
C (50
°

Humidity (non condensing).
Certification
UL Recognized Component certified to be in compliance with applicable
requirements of:
•
UL 2601-1, Second Edition including Amendments 1 and 2

CAN/CSA C222 No. 601.1-M909
Use of the PXCM-S with equipment not complying with equivalent safety
requirements may lead to a reduced level of safety in the resulting system. There
must be evidence that added equipment has been certified for safety in accordance
with the appropriate IEC 601-1 and/or IEC 601-1-1 harmonized national standard.
Otherwise use within the defined Patient Vicinity is not approved. Testing of the
PXCM-S in combination with the end use equipment shall include leakage current
test, ground continuity tests, temperature tests and other tests as required by the
appropriate standards. The maximum operating temperatures of certain safety
components, as defined in the applicable safety standards, must not be exceeded in
the end use installation to maintain the intended safety. The PXCM-S is intended
to be installed within X-ray equipment and serviced only by persons trained and
approved to work on that specific equipment, using the appropriate tools.
