Recommended separation distances between
portable and mobile RF communications equipment and the PiCCO
2
The PiCCO
2
is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances are controlled.
The customer or the user of the PiCCO
2
can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum
distance between portable and mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters) and the PiCCO
2
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 higher frequency range applies.
NOTE 2
These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by
absorption and reflection of structures, objects and people.
CAUTION:
The PiCCO
2
is subject to specific precautions concerning EMC (Electromagnetic
compatibility) and is only allowed to be installed and used according the EMC advice contained
in this user´s manual.
Portable and mobile high frequency communication devices may influence the PiCCO
2
.
When high frequency devices are used during surgery, the applying standards for high
frequency devices for surgery have to be followed.
