10 Electromagnetic Compliance - EMC

Warning: Note important information on electromagnetic compliance (EMC). The growing
number of electronic devices like PCs, displays, TV-sets and washing machines 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 require-
ments for EMC and prevent unsafe product situations. This norm defines the degrees of immuni-
ty against electromagnetic interference and the maximum electromagnetic emission levels for
medical devices. CardioSecur ACTIVE complies with norm IEC60601-1-2:2001 concerning immun-
ity as well as emissions. Nonetheless special precautions should be taken: Do not use devices
that cause strong electric or electromagnetic fields in the vicinity of CardioSecur ACTIVE. A
minimum distance of 2 meters is recommended. In case that the distance is less than 2 meters
CardioSecur ACTIVE may not perform properly. In accordance with the norm IEC60601-1-2:2001
you may request our customer support (see section 13, Contact) for further documentation.
