13 Electromagnetic Compatibility
Medical devices are subject to special safety and protective measures concerning
electromagnetic compatibility (hereafter abbreviated as EMC).
The device is to be used only for the purposes described in the Instructions for
Use and is intended for use in environments in Professional Healthcare Facility
Environment. This applies even if individual requirements meet the conditions
for deviating electromagnetic environments. During installation and commis-
sioning as well as during operation of the device, the compliance with the notes
and instructions for EMC must be strictly observed.
CAUTION!
Accessories
To ensure compliance with the requirements of IEC 60601-1-2 in the current ver-
sion, the device PP110 must be used only with the accessories listed in chapter
12 "Accessory list".
To ensure the basic safety and essential functionality concerning electromagnet-
ic interference over the life of the device, the device must be restarted no later
than after 24 hours so that a diagnostic self-test can be performed. In addition,
the specified maintenance intervals must be observed (see chapter 9.2 "Mainte-
nance Intervals").
This device complies with the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) requirements
for medical electrical devices as defined by IEC 60601-1-2. The limits used in test-
ing provide a basic level of safety against typical electromagnetic interference
likely to occur in professional health care facilities. Nevertheless, it can happen
that individual performance features are no longer available or only to a limited
extent due to the presence of EM interference.

Electrical Connections

The following are ESD precautionary measures:
• Apply potential equalization (PE), if available on your equipment, to all devices
to be connected.
• Use only the listed equipment and accessories.
Hospital employees should be informed about and trained in ESD precautionary
measures.
