Safety Information

 

 

· 

Equipment Classification

 

 

As per the International Electrotechnical Commission standard IEC 60601

-

1, and 

the European standard EN 60601

-

1, Medical Electrical Equipment, General 

Requirements for Basic Safety and Essential Performance, the NexWave is 
classified as follows:

 

 

· 

Type BF Equipment

 

A Type BF piece of equipment is one that provides a particular degree of 
protection against electric shock, particularly regarding allowable leakage 
current.  Type BF applied part is one that is floating above ground and is 
isolated from all other parts of the equipment.

 

 

 

· 

Internally Powered Equipment

 

When the NexWave is powered by the internal, 9 VDC, MN1604, battery it is 
classified as Internally Powered Equipment.

 

 

· 

Class II Medical Equipment

 

When powered by the external, 12 VDC, medical grade, power supply, the 

NexWave is classified as Class II Medical Electrical (ME) Equipment.  Note:  
When the external power supply is connected to the NexWave device, the 
power supply is considered part of the ME equipment.
