To avoid the risk of increased electromagnetic emissions or decreased immunity from such emissions, use
only accessories, including power cables, recommended by SBI ALApharma Canada Inc. Connection of
accessories not recommended by SBI ALApharma Canada Inc. will void product warranty and could result
in malfunctioning of the HFC or other devices located in the area.
Additionally, user of the HFC can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum
distance between portable and mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters) and the HFC as
recommended in Section 10.
Caution
Some RF emitters (e.g. RFID) in the intended environment of use might be concealed.
The device could potentially be exposed to fields from these RF emitters without user
awareness. Take the following precautions to prevent electromagnetic interference:
• Maintain a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communications
equipment (transmitters) and the HFC as recommended in
Section 10.
• Move to a different environment to image if experiencing imaging artifacts, such as
noise or distortion of the image
Note
The emissions characteristics of the HFC make it suitable for use in industrial areas and
hospitals (CISPR 11 class A). The HFC is not intended for use in a residential environment
and does not comply with IEC 60601-1-11:2015 General requirements for basic safety
and essential performance -- Collateral standard: Requirements for medical electrical
equipment and medical electrical systems used in the home healthcare environment.
If you experience imaging artifacts, such as noise or distortion of the image, move to a different
environment to image. If problems persist contact SBI ALApharma Canada Inc. to troubleshoot the
problem.
Recommended Separation Distances between Portable and Mobile RF Communications Equipment and the ME
SYSTEM
The Handheld Fluorescence Camera is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF
disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of the Handheld Fluorescence Camera can help prevent
electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communications
equipment (transmitters) and the Handheld Fluorescence Camera as recommended below, according to the maximum
output power of the communications equipment.

For transmitters rated at a maximum output power not listed above, the recommended separation distance d in meters (m)
can be estimated using the equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter, where P is the maximum output power
rating of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter manufacturer.
NOTE 1: At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the separation distance for the higher frequency range applies.
NOTE 2: These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and
reflection from structure, objects and people.
