10 Electromagnetic Compliance (EMC)

Warning: Note important information on electromagnetic compliance (EMC). The growing
number of electronic devices like PCs, displays, TV sets, washing machines and mobile phones
may subject medical devices to electromagnetic interference. This may cause malfunctioning of
the medical device and create potentially unsafe situations. Equally, medical devices should not
interfere with other electronic devices. The norm IEC60601-1-2 was introduced to regulate the
requirements for EMC and prevent unsafe product situations. This norm defines the degree of
immunity against electromagnetic interference and the maximum electromagnetic emission
levels for medical devices. CardioSecur complies with norm IEC60601-1-2:2001 concerning
immunity as well as emissions. Nonetheless special precautions should be taken. Do not use
devices that cause strong electromagnetic fields in the vicinity of CardioSecur. A minimum
distance of 2 meters is recommended. In case that the distance is less than 2 meters Car-
dioSecur may not perform properly. In accordance with the norm IEC60601-1-2:2001 you
may contact our customer support (see section 13, Contact) for further documentation.
