Patient monitoring system or the pulse oximeter oPOD or ECG ePOD where the controls can
be changed by the patient. In the case of the oPOD and ePOD, instruct the patient not to
operate the controls.
Never connect a patients IV lines to any part of this monitor including gas and / or blood
pressure connections.
Dropping, or shock to the monitor, PODs, Tablet, battery packs, or other accessories could
result in damage and affect accuracy or safe operation. Refer the component to a qualified
service personnel for proper checkout if any of these conditions occur.
1.3.3. Electrical Safety
Electrical shock and flammability hazard: Before cleaning, always turn off the device and
disconnect from any power source.
To protect from electric shock, always remove the sensors and completely disconnect the pulse
oximeter oPOD and ECG ePOD before bathing the patient.
ePOD and oPOD are not to be connected with any other equipment than the 3880 Monitor Unit
POD charge bays. Patient connections cannot be maintained and must be disconnected when
charging.
If monitor becomes wet or any fluid accidentally spills on the 3880 monitor, disconnect the
power cord from the power supply, remove the battery pack, and have the 3880 monitor
serviced by an authorized service representative.
Shock hazard exists if operated without chassis cover. Refer servicing to qualified service
personnel only.
For continued protection against fire hazard, replace fuses with same type and rating only.
Do not use electrical power extension cords or additional Multiple Socket Outlets. Electrical
power extension cords may create a safety hazard by compromising the grounding integrity of
the monitor.
If the integrity of the earth conductor of the AC main power cable is in doubt, operate the
monitor on internal battery power until proper earth connection is confirmed.
Electrical Shock Hazard: Carry out periodic tests to verify that leakage currents of patient-
applied circuits and the system are within acceptable limits as specified by the applicable safety
standards. The summation of leakage currents must be checked and in compliance with IEC
60601-1 and UL60601-1. The system leakage current must be checked when connecting
external equipment to the system. When an event such as a component drop of approximately
1 meter or greater or a spillage of blood or other liquids occurs, retest before further use. Injury
to personnel could occur.
Do not operate the 3880 MRI Patient Monitor without the 1133 Battery in place, as touching the
patient and the circuitry in the battery compartment of the 3880 monitor simultaneously must be
avoided.
This monitor and its listed accessories may be safely powered by the voltages 100-120VAC and
220-240 VAC having a frequency of 50 or 60 Hz.
To minimize radio interference, other electrical equipment that emits radio frequency
