Recommended separation distances between portable and mobile RF communica-
tions equipment and the Veroval
The Veroval
upper arm blood pressure monitor is intended for use in an electromagnetic
®
environment in which radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The customer or user of the
Veroval
upper arm blood pressure monitor can help prevent electromagnetic interference
®
by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communications
equipment (transmitters) and the Veroval
mended below, according to the maximum output power of the communications equip-
ment.

For transmitters rated at a maximum output power not listed above, the recommended
separation distance d in metres (m) can be determined using the equation applicable to
the frequency of the transmitter, where P is the maximum output power rating of the
transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter manufacturer.
NOTE 1: At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the separation distance for 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.
