Safety Tips
Electrical Leakage Test Point
CAUTION:
If the ground is not properly connected to the electrical leakage test
point a false reading may occur.
In the event the electrical leakage test is done, the
proper location for this test is on the main frame by
the center joint on either side of the bed. Labeling
on the main frame will indicate proper location.
Acceptable Levels of Leakage Current
Allowable limits for leakage current measurements for medical devices depend upon function
and intentional contact with patient. Limits are required for UL 60601-01, IEC 60601-1 and
CSA C22.2 No. 601.1. The maximum allowed leakage readings for the
SW Advantage® is 300
micro amps.
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)
The SW Advantage™ has been tested for compliance with the EMC requirements. The
guidelines in this section will help to ensure the medical equipment will meet the requirements of
the standard.
WARNING:
Medical equipment should not be used, stacked or located on or
around equipment that may create electromagnetic interferences.
Emissions
The SW Advantage™ has been type tested and has passed the requirements of CISPR 11.
Observe the following recommendations to minimize radio frequency emissions in this section
and the Electromagnetic Interference section.
Immunity
The SW Advantage™ has been stringently tested for susceptibility to electromagnetic radiation
over the frequency range 80 MHz to 2.5 GHz. The test was conducted on this bed and passed
the requirements of IEC 61000-4-3.
All pins of connectors have passed ESD testing.
