Notes on EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility)
•
The ICS Aircal device is part of a medical electrical system and is thus subject to special safety precautions. For this
reason, the installation and operating instructions provided in this document should be followed closely.
•
Portable and mobile high-frequency communication devices, such as mobile phones, may interfere with the
functioning of the ICS Aircal device.
IEC 60601-1:2012 and IEC 60601-1-2:2014
Guidance and manufacturer's declaration - electromagnetic emissions for all equipment and systems
The ICS Aircal device is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment specified below. The user of the ICS Aircal device should ensure that it is
used in such an environment.

RF emissions CISPR11
Group 1
The ICS Aircal device 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.
RF emissions CISPR11
Class A
The ICS Aircal device is suitable for use in hospital and clinic environments.
The EMISSIONS characteristics of this equipment make it suitable for use in industrial areas
and hospitals (CISPR 11 class A). If it is used in a residential environment (for which CISPR
11 class B is normally required), this equipment might not offer adequate protection to
radio-frequency communication services. The user might need to take mitigation
measures, such as relocating or re-orienting the equipment.
