Guidance and manufacture's declaration – electromagnetic immunity
The BC85 blood pressure monitor is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment specified below. The customer or the user of the
BC85 blood pressure monitor should assure that it is used in such an environment.
Immunity test IEC 60601

Conducted RF

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 from structures,
objects and people.
a
Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio,
AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment
due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the
BC85 blood pressure monitor is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the BC85 blood pressure monitor should be obser-
ved to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as reorienting or relocating
the BC85 blood pressure monitor.
b
Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 3 V/m.
Compliance
Electromagnetic environment – guidance
level
Portable and mobile RF communications equipment should be used no closer to any part of the
BC85 blood pressure monitor, including cables, than the recommended separation distance calcu-
lated from the equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter.
Recommended separation distance:
d =
3 V
rms
d =
80 MHz to 800 MHz
d =
800 MHz to 2.5 GHz
3 V/m
Where P is the maximum output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the trans-
mitter manufacturer and d is the recommended separation distance in metres (m).
Field strengths from fixed RF transmitters, as determined by an electromagnetic site survey,
should be less than the compliance level in each frequency range.
