ELECTROMAGNETIC IMMUNITY
Guidance and manufacturer’s declaration – electromagnetic immunity
The OX-10A/5A OXYGEN CONCENTRATOR is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment
specified below. The customer or the user of the OX-10A/5A OXYGEN CONCENTRATOR should assure
that it is used in such an environment.

Field strengths from fixed RF transmitters, as
determined by an electromagnetic site survey,
a
should be less than the compliance level in
each frequency range.
b
Interference may occur in the vicinity of
equipment 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 situations. Electromagnetic is affected by absorption and
reflection from structures, objects and people.
a
Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and
land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted
theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an
electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which
the OX-10A/5A OXYGEN CONCENTRATOR is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above,
the OX-10A/5A OXYGEN CONCENTRATOR should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal
performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as reorienting or relocating the
OX-10A/5A OXYGEN CONCENTRATOR.
b
Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 3 V/m.
