a: Field strength 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 UF-450AX is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above,
the UF-450AX should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is
observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as reorienting or relocating the UF-450AX.
b: Over the frequency range 150kHz to 80MHz, field strength should be less than 3 V/m.

A9.4 Method for Inspection Related to Safety
We recommend you to conduct an inspection related to safety as a means to check safety of the equipment.
Safety test standards specify testing method, measuring instruments and so forth. However, it is extremely
hard to conduct all the checks specified in standards on the field of medical care. Therefore, think that
measurement is only to determine a rough criterion, when checks are made for maintenance and inspection.
Cases of simple measurement of leakage current are described below.

If it is found during safety inspection that tolerances are exceeded, never use the subject
equipment. Otherwise the patient may be in danger.

z Check of leakage current

Leakage current meters (electronic voltmeter, digital voltmeter), impedance for measurement, power
supply switching box, etc. are available as measuring instruments.

Measuring instruments
Impedance for measurement is needed as a leakage current measuring instrument. The following figure is
a typical composition of impedance for measurement.

R1：10KΩ±5%
R2：1KΩ±1%
R1
C1：0.05μF±5%
V：Measuring instrument (voltmeter)
R2 C1

Impedance for measurement (indicated as = MD )

The leakage current can be obtained by measuring the voltage at both ends of this impedance for
measurement.
A digital voltmeter is required to indicate the true effective value against composite waveform of
frequency band from DC to 1 MHz, and it is desirable that a voltmeter of the specified performance is
used. But it is considered that a digital voltmeter available on the market is appropriate because it is
simply used for measurement to obtain a value that is a criterion for maintenance and inspection.
However, it is necessary to check the frequency band of the voltmeter used for measurement and to keep
in mind that if leakage current of a frequency that is outside of the said frequency band is present, it is not
indicated by the voltmeter.

Confidential APPENDIX A-43

APPENDIX 9. Maintenance and Inspections (Continued)

Methods for measurement of earth leakage current and of touch current are briefly described below.
Impedance for measurement is hereinafter expressed as MD .

[1] Checking the earth leakage current (current that flows through the
protective earth line)
A method using a power supply switching box and a method using a 2-3P conversion adapter are
available for checking the earth leakage current.

 z Measurement method
y Take measurement at point B of the earth line (such as the earth line of the adapter) of the
power cable and point A of the dedicated earth terminal for medical-use 3-pin connector.
y Measurement can be taken either in the normal state or in the single failed state.
y Take measurement in the normal state with the polarity of the power supply switched. In case 2,
it is also possible to take simple measurement simply using a 2-3P conversion adapter by
changing the polarity of connection to the connector.
y Measurement in the single failed state is also possible by preparing a 2P table tap and inserting
only one blade of the 2-3P conversion adapter. A total of four measurements will be taken as
result of inserting two blades into two holes of the table tap.

z Measurement method
y Take measurement between point A of the dedicated earth terminal for medical-use 3-pin outlet
and point B that is an arbitrary point of the unit.
y Measurement in the normal state can be simply taken by the following method: Connect the
earth line of the 2-3P conversion adapter to the dedicated earth terminal for medical-use 3-pin
outlet and change the polarity of the plug pins of the 2-3P conversion adapter.
An extremely small value (nearly zero) is measured in the normal state.

APPENDIX 9. Maintenance and Inspections (Continued)

y Take measurement in the single failed state by disconnecting the earth terminal for medical-use
3-pin outlet and the earth line of the power cable (earth line of 2-3P conversion adapter) on the
equipment side and by switching the polarity of the plug pins of the 2-3P conversion adapter.

z Criteria for checks

In the measurement of leakage current, determine the maximum value of all the measured
values as the measured value.
The maximum allowable values of earth leakage current and of touch current are indicated
below. When conducting inspection, compare the measured values with measured values taken
during inspections in the past and assure that major differences are not observed.

Maximum allowable values of leakage current

Normal state Single failed state
Earth leakage current 5mA or less 10mA or less
Touch current 0.1mA or less 0.5mA or less
