6. Important information
Power connection – Equipment with internal power supply
•
This equipment must be earthed.
•
Power requirements: The equipment must be powered by the AC mains voltage.
•
The equipment should be installed near an easily accessible outlet.
•
The equipment is intended for continuous operation.
Power cords:
•
Europe: H05VV-F or H05VVH2-F PVC cord with appropriate EU plug.
•
US and Canada: “hospital grade” cord-set has to be used, provided with instructions to indicate that
grounding reliability can be achieved only when the equipment is connected to an equivalent recep-
tacle marked hospital only or hospital grade. These instructions need to be marked either on the
equipment or on a tag on the power cord.
Transient over-voltage
If the device is not used for a long time, disconnect it from the AC inlet to avoid damage by transient
over-voltage.
To fully disengage the power to the device, please disconnect the power cord from the AC inlet.
Connections
Any external connection with other peripherals must follow the requirements of clause 16 of IEC60601-1
3rd ed. or Table BBB.201 of IEC 60601-1-1 for the medical electrical systems.
Connection of PEMS by network/data coupling to other equipment (MDSC-8255
MNA version only)
•
Connection of the PEMS to a network/data coupling that includes other equipment could result in
previously unidenti
fi
ed risks to patients, operators or third parties.
•
The responsible organization should identify, analyze, evaluate and control these risks.
•
Subsequent changes to the network/data coupling could introduce new risks and require additional
analysis.
•
Changes to the network/data coupling include:
- changes in network/data coupling con
fi
guration;
- connection of additional items to the network/data coupling con
fi
guration;
- disconnecting items from the network/data coupling con
fi
guration;
- update of equipment connected to the network/data coupling con
fi
guration;
- upgrade of equipment connected to the network/data coupling con
fi
guration
Water and moisture
The equipment is IP20 compliant. The monitor front side is IPX5 compliant (for versions with front protec-
tion glass only).
Moisture condensation
Do not use monitor under rapid temperature and humidity change condition or avoid cold air from air-
conditioning outlet directly.
Moisture may condense on the surface or inside of the unit, or create a mist residue inside the protection
plate, this is not a malfunction of the product itself, although it may cause damage to the monitor.
If condensation happens, let the monitor stand unplugged until there is no condensation.
