EMI INTERFERENCE
Caution: This device has been tested and found to comply
with the limits for medical devices to the IEC 601-1-2:1993,
EN60601-1-2:1994, Medical Device Directive 93/42/EEC.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a typical medical installation.
However, because of the proliferation of radio-frequency
transmitting equipment and other sources of electrical noise
in healthcare environments (for example, electrosurgical
units, cellular phones, mobile two-way radios, electrical
appliances, high-definition television), it is possible that high
levels of such interference due to close proximity or strength
of a source, may result in disruption of performance of this
device.
The NPB-290 is designed for use in environments in which the
pulse can be obscured by electromagnetic interference. During
such interference, measurements may seem inappropriate or the
monitor may not seem to operate correctly.
Disruption may be evidenced by erratic readings, cessation of
operation, or other incorrect functioning. If this occurs, the site
of use should be surveyed to determine the source of this
disruption, and actions taken to eliminate the source:
• Turn equipment in the vicinity off and on to isolate the
offending equipment.
• Reorient or relocate the offending equipment.
• Increase the separation between the offending equipment
and this equipment.
The NPB-290 generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with these
instructions, may cause harmful interference with other devices in
the vicinity.
