Health Support Equipment
The ProLine 2200 system creates electric and magnetic fields that may interfere with
certain types of health support equipment, such as pacemakers. Any person who uses a
pacemaker or similar item should consult a doctor before operating, observing,
maintaining, or servicing the ProLine system. Observe the following guidelines to
minimize exposure to these electric and magnetic fields:
•
Stay as far away from the ProLine power supply, torch, torch leads, and remote
high frequency console as possible.
•
Route the torch leads as close as possible to the work ground cable.
•
Never place your body between the torch leads and work ground cable. Keep the
work ground cable and the torch leads on the same side of your body.
•
Never stand in the center of a coiled up set of torch leads or work ground cable.
