Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)

WARNINGS:

Changes or modifications to this system not expressly approved by the manufacturer may result 

in increased emissions or decreased immunity performance of the equipment or system and could 

cause EMC issues with this or other equipment. This system is designed and tested to comply with 

applicable regulations regarding EMC and shall be installed and put into service according to the EMC 

information stated as follows.  

Use of portable phones or other radio frequency (RF) emitting equipment near the system may cause 

unexpected or adverse operation. The equipment or system shall not be used adjacent to, or stacked 

with, other equipment.  If adjacent or stacked use is necessary, the equipment or system shall be 

tested to verify normal operation in the configuration in which it is being used.

Guidance and manufacturer’s declaration – electromagnetic emissions

The EQUIPMENT is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment specified below. The customer or the user 

of the EQUIPMENT should assure that it is used in such an environment.

The EQUIPMENT uses RF energy only for its internal function. Therefore, its RF 

emissions are very low and are not likely to cause any interference in nearby 

electronic equipment.

The EQUIPMENT is suitable for use in all establishments including domestic 

establishments and those directly connected to the public

low-voltage power supply network that supplies buildings used for domestic 

purposes.

Portable and mobile RF communications 

equipment should be used no closer to any part of the EQUIP-

MENT, including cables, than the recommended separation 

distance calculated from the equation applicable to the 

frequency of the transmitter.  Recommended separation

Where 

P

 is the maximum output power rating in the transmitter in watts (W) according to

the transmitter manufacturer and 

d

 is the recommended separation distance in meters (m).

Field strengths from fixed RF transmitters, as determined by an electromagnetic site

survey, 

a

 should be less than the compliance level in each frequency range.

b

Interference may occur in the vicinity of equipment marked with the following symbol:

Note 1: At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.

Note 2: These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is

affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people.

 Fixed strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land 

mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with 

accuracy. To access the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, and electromagnetic site survey 

should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the EQUIPMENT is used exceeds the 

applicable RF compliance level above, the EQUIPMENT should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal 

performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as reorienting or relocating the EQUIPMENT.

b

over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 3 V/m.

Recommended separation distances between portable and mobile

RF communications equipment and the EQUIPMENT

The EQUIPMENT is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances are con-

trolled. The customer or the user of the EQUIPMENT can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a 

minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communications equipment 

(transmitters) and the EQUIPMENT as recommended below, according to the maximum output power

of the communications equipment.

For transmitters rated at a maximum output power not listed above, the recommended

 

separation distance d in meters 

(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 higher frequency range applies.

NOTE 1: At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the separation distance for the higher frequency range applies.

NOTE 2: These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by

absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people.
