where P is the maximum output

watts (W) according to the transmitter

manufacturer and d is the

recommended separation distance in

metres (m).

Field strengths from fixed RF

electromagnetic site survey,

c

should

be less than the compliance level in

each frequency range.

d

Interference may occur in the vicinity

of equipment marked with the

following symbol:

NOTE 1 At 80 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

The ISM (industrial, scientific and medical) bands between 150 KHz and 80 MHz are 6.765 MHz to

6.795 MHz; 13.553 MHz to 13.567 MHz; 26.957 MHz to 27.283 MHz; and 40.66 MHz to 40.70

MHz.

b

The compliance levels in the ISM frequency bands between 150 kHz and 80 MHz and in the

frequency range 80 MHz to 2.5 GHz are intended to decrease the likelihood that mobile/portable

communications equipment could cause interference if it is inadvertently brought into patient areas.

For this reason, an additional factor of 10/3 is used in calculating the recommended separation

distance for transmitters in these frequency ranges.

c

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 AED Plus is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the

AED Plus should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed,

additional measures may be necessary, such as reorienting or relocating the AED Plus.

d

Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 10 V/m.
