CARDIOVIT AT-1 G2
1.8 Operation with other Devices
1.9 Maintenance
Accessories connected to the analogue and/or digital interfaces must be certified
according to the corresponding IEC standards (e.g. IEC/EN 60950 for data
processing equipment and IEC/EN 60601-1 for medical equipment).
Furthermore, all configurations shall comply with the valid version of IEC/EN
60601-1. Everyone who connects additional equipment to the signal input part or
signal output part configures a medical system and is therefore responsible that
the system complies with the requirements of the valid version of IEC/EN 60601-
1. If in doubt, contact the technical service department or your local
representative.
Any other equipment used with the patient must use the same common earth as
the CARDIOVIT AT-1 G2.
Special care must be exercised when the unit is used with high-frequency
equipment. Use the special high frequency SCHILLER patient cable to avoid
possible signal interference during ECG acquisition. However, the stimulation
units should only be used at a sufficient distance from the electrodes and both
devices must be connected to the same potential equalisation. If in doubt, the
patient should be disconnected from the device.
There is no danger for patients with a pacemaker.
There is no danger when using this unit simultaneously with electrical stimulation
equipment.
If the patient cable should become defective after defibrillation, a lead-off
indication is displayed on the screen (see
page 25
).
Portable communication devices, HF radios and devices labelled with the
symbol (non-ionic electromagnetic radiation) can affect the operation of this
device (
page 54
).
Danger of electric shock. Do not open the device. There are no serviceable parts
inside. Servicing must only be performed by qualified technicians authorised by
SCHILLER.
Before cleaning and to isolate the mains power supply, switch the monitor off and
disconnect it from the mains by removing the plug.
Do not use high-temperature sterilisation processes (such as autoclaving). Do
not use e-beam or gamma radiation sterilisation.
Do not use aggressive or abrasive cleaners.
Do not, under any circumstances, immerse the unit or cable assemblies in liquid.
