Informaon on Electromagnec and Other Interferences
The bite away
®
has been evaluated and deemed compliant with the requirements in EN60601-1-2 Class B for Electromagnec
Compability (EMC). Medical Electrical Equipment needs special precauons regarding EMC and needs to be installed and put
into service according to the EMC informaon provided in this User Manual.
Portable and mobile RF communicaons equipment can aect Medical Electrical Equipment. The bite away
®
should not be
used adjacent to or stacked with other electromagnec equipment. If adjacent or stacked use with other electromagnec
equipment is necessary, verify that the bite away
®
operaon is normal in the conguraon(s) in which it will be used.

RF emissions
CISPR 11
Group 1
The bite away
®
uses RF energy only for its internal funcon. Therefore,
its RF emissions are very low and are not likely to cause any interference
in nearby electronic equipment.

Portable and mobile RF communicaons equip-

, including cables, than the re-
commended separaon distance calculated from
the equaon applicable to the frequency of the
transmier.

d = 2.33 √P 800 MHz to 2.5 GHz
where P is the maximum output power rang
of the transmier in was (W) according to the
transmier manufacturer and d is the recommen-
ded separaon distance in meters (m).
Field strengths from xed RF transmiers, as
determined by an electromagnec site survey,

should be less than the compliance level in each
frequency range.

Interference may occur in the vicinity of equip-
ment 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 situaons. Electromagnec propagaon is aected by absorpon and reec-

Field strengths from xed transmiers, such as base staons for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio,
AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theorecally with accuracy. To assess the electromagnec environment
due to xed RF transmiers, an electromagnec site survey should be considered. If the measured eld strength in the locaon in which
the bite away
®
is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the bite away
®
should be observed to verify normal operaon.
If abnormal performance is observed, addional measures may be necessary, such as re-orienng or relocang the bite away
®
.
b
Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, eld strengths should be less than 3 V/m.
Recommended separaon distances between portable and mobile
RF communicaons equipment and the bite away
®
The bite away
®
is intended for use in an electromagnec environment in which radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The
customer or the user of the bite away
®
can help prevent electromagnec interference by maintaining a minimum distance
between portable and mobile RF communicaons equipment (transmiers) and the bite away
®
as recommended below,
according to the maximum output power of the communicaons equipment.

For transmiers rated at a maximum output power not listed above, the recommended separaon distance d in meters (m)
can be esmated using the equaon applicable to the frequency of the transmier, where P is the maximum output power
