ICS Aircal
Notes on EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility)
Recommended separation distances between portable and mobile RF communications equipment and the ICS Aircal device
The ICS Aircal device is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user
of the ICS Aircal device can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF
communications equipment (transmitters) and the ICS Aircal device 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 transmitter manufacturer.
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.

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 all environments, including domestic
environments and those directly connected to the public low-voltage power supply
network that supplies buildings used for domestic purposes.
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.
