Recommended separation distance between portable and mobile RF
communications equipment and the Diabecare DANA-i
The Diabecare DANA-i insulin pump is intended for use in an electromagnetic
environment in which radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The customer or the
user of the Diabecare DANA-i insulin pump can help prevent electromagnetic
interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF
communications equipment (transmitters) and the Diabecare DANA-i insulin pump as
recommended below, according to the maximum output power of the communications
equipment.
Rated maximum
output power of
transmitter [W]
Separation distance according to frequency of transmitter [m]
0.01 0.117 0.233
0.1 0.369 0.738
1 1.167 2.333
10 3.689 7.379
100 11.667 23.333
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 structures, objects and people.
