Recommended Separation Distances between Portable and Mobile RF Communications
Equipment and the ZZABP01
The ZZABP01is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF
disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of the ZZABP01can help prevent
electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile
RF communications equipment (transmitters) and the ZZABP01 as recommended below,
according to the maximum output power of the communications equipment.

Your BodyMed
®
Digital Blood Pressure Monitor (ZZABP01) is warranted to be free from defects in materials and
workmanship occurring within one year from date of purchase when used in strict accordance with the instructions
provided with the BodyMed
®
Digital Blood Pressure Unit. The sole remedy for a breach of this warranty is
replacement of the defective materials or components. This warranty extends only to the original purchaser. The
purchase receipt or other proof of date of original purchase is required before full replacement will be provided.
Limited Product Warranty
For transmitters rated at a maximum output power not listed above, the recommended separation distance d in
metres (m) can be estimated using the equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter, where P is the
maximum output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter manufacturer.
NOTE 1: At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the separation distance for the higher frequency range applies.
NOTE 2: The ISM (industrial, scientific, and medical) bands between 0,15 MHz and 80 MHz are 6,765 MHz to 6,795
MHz; 13,553 MHz to 13,567 MHz; 26,957 MHz to 27,283 MHz; and 40,66 MHz to 40,70 MHz. The amateur
radio bands between 0,15 MHz and 80 MHz are 1,8 MHz to 2,0 MHz, 3,5 MHz to 4,0 MHz, 5,3 MHz to 5,4
MHz, 7 MHz to 7,3 MHz, 10,1 MHz to 10,15 MHz, 14 MHz to 14,2 MHz, 18,07 MHz to 18,17 MHz, 21,0 MHz to
21,4 MHz, 24,89 MHz to 24,99 MHz, 28,0 MHz to 29,7 MHz, and 50,0 MHz to 54,0 MHz.
NOTE 3: An additional factor of 10/3 has been incorporated into the formulae used in calculating the recommended
separation distance for transmitters in the ISM frequency bands between 150 kHz and 80 MHz and in
the frequency range 80 MHz to 2,7 GHz to decrease the likelihood that mobile/portable communications
equipment could cause interference if it is inadvertently brought into patient areas.
NOTE 4: These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption
and reflection from structures, objects, and people.
