Avoid operating high-frequency, remote control and
radio equipment near electronic circuits and feeder
cables. If use of such equipment cannot be avoided,
verify the system and the plant for possible malfunc-
tions at all possible positions of normal use before
the first start-up. If necessary, perform a special
electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) test on the
plant.
2.8
Protection against magnetic and electromagnetic fields
during operation and mounting
Magnetic and electromagnetic fields generated by current-carrying con-
ductors and permanent magnets in motors represent a serious health
hazard to persons with heart pacemakers, metal implants and hearing
aids.
WARNING
Health hazard for persons with heart pacemak-
ers, metal implants and hearing aids in proxim-
ity to electrical equipment!
Persons with pacemakers, metal implants and hear-
ing aids are not permitted to enter following areas:
- Areas in which electrical equipment and parts are
mounted, being operated or started up.
- Areas in which parts of motors with permanent
magnets are being stored, operated, repaired or
mounted.
If it is necessary for a person with a pacemaker to
enter such an area, then a physician must be con-
sulted prior to doing so. Pacemakers, that are al-
ready implanted or will be implanted in the future,
have a considerable deviation in their immunity to
interference. Due to the unpredictable behaviour
there are no generally valid rules.
Persons with hearing aids, metal implants or metal
pieces must consult a doctor before they enter the
areas described above. Otherwise health hazards
will occur.
