Technical description – Electromagnetic compatibility
The U-3003 ultrasonic nebulizer is suitable for use in
professional health care facilities
It is suitable for use in medical practices, clinics, hospitals and other
professional healthcare facilities.
Essential performance
The main feature of the device is the humidification of the respiratory
system with aerosol according to the selected settings. An aerosol
spectrum is generated according to the performance data of the U-3003.
The U-3003 has been tested for fault-free operation to comply with the
listed requirements. However, electromagnetic interference which
exceeds the test levels can lead to a deterioration or loss of essential
features. If excessive electromagnetic interferences occur, technical
alarms may occur that affect the operation.
In that case, measures are to be taken, for example:
- Turn off nearby appliances and then turn them back on to detect the
device causing the interference.
- Place the device causing the interference in a different location or
change its orientation.
- Increase the distance between the device causing the interference and
the ultrasound system.
- Use separate power supplies.
- Prevent or eliminate electromagnetic interference with technical
solutions (for example, shielding).
- Acquire medical equipment that meets the requirements of EMC
standards IEC 60601-1-2.
Information on maintaining basic safety and the essential
performance characteristics related to electromagnetic disturbance
and for the service life of the medical device
Medical equipment is subject to specific precautionary measures with
regard to EMC (electromagnetic compatibility) which must be observed in
the installation and start-up of the equipment.
These include observing the recommended safety distances to
neighbouring electronic devices, which are given in the tables below.
Carry out regular safety checks on the U-3003 according to the
manufacturer's instructions. The manufacturer's instructions list the
specific internal EMC protection measures.
subject to IEC 60601-1-2: 2014.
