Electromagnetic Compliance (EMC)
Warning:
Note important information on electromagnetic compliance (EMC). The growing
number of electronic devices such as PCs, displays, TV sets and washing machines may sub-
ject medical devices to electromagnetic interference. This may cause malfunctioning of the
medical device and create potentially unsafe situations. Medical devices should also not
interfere with other electronic devices. The norm IEC60601-1-2 was introduced to regulate
the requirements for EMC and prevent unsafe product situations. This norm defines the de-
grees of immunity against electromagnetic interference and the maximum electromagnetic
emission levels for medical devices. CardioSecur complies with norm IEC60601-1-2:2001 con-
cerning immunity as well as emissions. Nonetheless, special precautions should be taken. Do
not use devices that cause strong electric or electromagnetic fields in the vicinity of Cardi-
oSecur.
A minimum distance of 2 meters is recommended. If the distance is less than 2
meters CardioSecur may not perform properly.
In accordance with the norm IEC60601-1-
2:2001, contact our customer support (see section 13, Contact) to request further documen-
tation.
