Guidance and manufacturer’s declaration – electromagnetic immunity

The Genius 2 Tympanic Thermometer and Base is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment specified below. The

customer or the user of the Genius 2 Tympanic Thermometer and Base should assure that it is used in such an environment.
Immunity Test

IEC 60601 test level

Compliance level

Electromagnetic environment –guidance

Conducted RF IEC

Not applicable

3 V/m

Portable and mobile RF communications equipment

should be used no closer to any part of the Genius 2

Tympanic Thermometer and Base, including cables, than

the recommended separation distance calculated from the

equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter.

Recommended separation distance

Not applicable

d = 1,2√P 80 MHz to 800 MHz

d = 2,3√P 800 MHz to 2,5 GHz

Where P is the maximum output power rating of the

transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter

manufacturer and d is the recommended separation

distance in meters (m).

Field strengths from fixed RF transmitters, as determined

by an electromagnetic site survey,

a

should be less than the

compliance level in each frequency range.

b

Interference

may occur in the vicinity of equipment marked with the

following symbol:

Note 1 At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, 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.

a

Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile radios,

amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess

the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the

measured field strength in the location in which the Genius 2 Tympanic Thermometer and Base is used exceeds the applicable

RF compliance level above, the Genius 2 Tympanic Thermometer and Base should be observed to verify normal operation. If

abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as re-orienting or relocating the Genius 2

Tympanic Thermometer and Base.

b

Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 3 V/m.
