Compliance with RF exposure standards
Your Codan HF transceiver system is designed and tested to
comply with a number of national and international standards
and guidelines (listed below) regarding human exposure to RF
electromagnetic energy. This transceiver system complies with
the IEEE and ICNIRP exposure limits for occupational/
controlled RF exposure environments at duty factors of up to
50% talk (100% listen), and is authorised by the FCC for
occupational use.
Your Codan HF transceiver system complies with the
following RF energy exposure standards and guidelines:
• United States Federal Communications Commission,
Code of Federal Regulations; 47 CFR§§ 2 sub-part J
• American National Standards Institute/Institute of
Electrical and Electronic Engineers C95.1–1992
• Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers C95.1–
1999 Edition
Operating instructions to control RF exposure
To control exposure of yourself and others and ensure
compliance with the occupational/controlled environment
exposure limits, always adhere to the following procedures:
• Transmit no more than the rated duty factor of 50% of
the time, and remain at least 1.5 m from the antenna.
• Do not transmit from the transceiver or tune the antenna
unless people outside the vehicle are beyond the safe
operating distance of 1.5 m (5 ft) of any part of a mobile
antenna.
