Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) to EN60601-
1-2:2007
WARNING: use of portable phones or other radio frequency (RF)
emitting equipment near the system may cause unexpected or
adverse operation.
The SpiroUSB has been tested to EN60601-1-2:2007, regarding its ability to
operate in an environment containing other electrical/electronic equipment
(including other medical devices).
The purpose of this testing is to ensure that the SpiroUSB is not likely to
adversely affect the normal operation of other such equipment and that
other such equipment is not likely to adversely affect the normal operation
of the SpiroUSB.
Despite the testing of the SpiroUSB that has been undertaken, normal
operation of the SpiroUSB can be affected by other electrical/electronic
equipment and portable and mobile RF communications equipment.
As the SpiroUSB is medical equipment, special precautions are needed
regarding EMC (electromagnetic compatibility).
It is important that the SpiroUSB is configured and installed/put into service,
in accordance with the instructions/guidance provided herein and is used
only in the configuration as supplied.
Changes or modifications to the SpiroUSB may result in increased emissions
or decreased immunity of the SpiroUSB in relation to EMC performance.
The SpiroUSB should be used only with the USB extension cable provided
by Carefusion, which is referenced in the accessories section of this manual.
This cable should not be used with devices other than the SpiroUSB. If the
cable is extended by the user using non approved cables, this may result in
an increased level of emissions or decreased level of immunity, in relation to
the SpiroUSB's EMC. Use of the USB extension cable with devices other than
the SpiroUSB, may result in an increased level of emissions or decreased
level of immunity, in relation to the other devices' EMC.
The SpiroUSB has an essential performance – the product should continue
to operate correctly. In the unlikely event of a Fast Transient / ESD event
occurring, the device should be reset and located away from the source of
interference.
WARNING:
The SpiroUSB should not be used adjacent to or stacked with other
equipment. If adjacent or stacked use with other equipment is necessary, the
SpiroUSB and the other equipment should be observed/ monitored, to verify
.
