Operating environment
2.3 Operating environment
The ultrasonic generator may only be used in inpatient and outpatient medical
rooms.
In close vicinity to the instrument, the atmosphere must not be oxygen enriched nor
may there be any danger of explosion.
The ultrasonic generator may not be used in areas under the influence of magnetic or
electromagnetic fields. Electromagnetic fields, such as those generated by magnetic
resonance imaging, can influence the function of the ultrasonic generator. For this
reason, ensure electromagnetic compatibility of other electrical devices. Use only
medical electrical devices that meet the requirements of IEC 60601-1-2 for electro-
magnetic compatibility.
The specified ambient temperature, relative humidity and air pressure conditions
must be maintained at all times.
2.4 Length of treatment
Under normal conditions, the ultrasonic generator is intended for use of no longer
than 60 minutes in total. Some of the instruments however may not be activated as
long. During a treatment you should therefore follow the maximum procedure time
specified for each instrument.
2.5 Cable and accessory management
Make sure that the cables and accessories are in perfect condition.
Damaged insulation on the power cord or instrument cable may result in electric
shock and cause serious injury or death.
Check every cable for damage.
If a cable is damaged, immediately turn off the power (or keep it turned off).
Replace every damaged cable.
Use of unauthorized accessories may lead to malfunction and cause severe injury to
patients as well as operators. Use only approved accessories
(see catalog or our website: www.soering.com).
