TL12 multiroom IVF incubators
The MIRI
®
TL6 and MIRI
®
TL12 multiroom IVF incubators are intended to be used in an electromagnetic
environment in which radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The customer, or the
MIRI
®
TL6 or MIRI
®
TL12 multiroom IVF incubator user, can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a
minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters). The MIRI
®
TL6 and MIRI
®
TL12 multiroom IVF incubators are recommended below, according to the communications
equipment's maximum output power.

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 transmitter
manufacturer.
NOTE 1:
At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range's separation distance applies.
NOTE 2:
These guidelines may not apply in all situations.
Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and reflections from structures, objects and people.
Medical Devices may be affected by cellular telephones and other personal or household
devices not intended for medical facilities. It is recommended that all equipment used
near the MIRI
®
TL6 and MIRI
®
TL12 multiroom IVF incubators comply with the medical
electromagnetic compatibility standard and checks before use that no interference is
evident or possible. If the interference is suspected or potential, switching off the
offending device is the standard solution as it is the usual practice in aircraft and medical
facilities.
According to the EMC information, medical electrical equipment must be treated with
special precautions indicated by EMC and installed and put into service. Portable and
mobile RF communications equipment can affect medical electrical equipment.
