Radio Frequency Interference
Medical Electrical Equipment needs to be installed and used according
to the EMC information in this manual.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with EMC limits
specified by IEC/EN 60601–1–2. These limits are designed to provide
a reasonable protection against electromagnetic interference in a
typical home health care environment.
Portable and mobile RF communications equipment can affect the
operation of this equipment. Use of this equipment adjacent to
or stacked with other equipment should be avoided as it could
result in improper operation. The battery charger operation should
be observed to verify normal operation in the presence of such
equipment.
Other devices may experience interference from even the low levels
of electromagnetic emissions permitted by the above standards. To
determine if the emissions from the battery charger is causing the
interference, turn the unit off. If the interference with the other
device(s) stops, then the unit is causing the interference. In such
rare cases, interference may be reduced or corrected by one of the
following measures:
•
Reposition, relocate, or increase the separation between the
equipment.
•
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from
that to which the other device(s) is connected.
Refer to the Platinum Mobile Oxygen Concentrator user manual for
additional information on EMC.
