Environmental Dangers
ALL DEVICES MEETING IEC60950 MUST BE KEPT OUTSIDE THE PATIENT
ENVIRONMENT AS DEFINED IN IEC60601-1-1, UNLESS THE DEVICES, ACCORDING TO
IEC60601-1-1, ARE EQUIPPED WITH THE FOLLOWING:
A) ADDITIONAL FIXED EARTH PROTECTION
OR:
B) AN EXTRA ISOLATING TRANSFORMER
Commercial devices such as laser cameras, printers, VCRs and external monitors,
usually exceed allowable leakage current limits and, when plugged into separate
AC outlets, are in violation of patient safety standards. Suitable electrical isolation of
such external AC outlets, or the provision of extra protective earth for the device, is
required in order to meet UL60601-1 and IEC60601-1-1 standards for electrical leakage.
•Patient Vicinity UL 60601-1
Sub clause 2.12.20DV - D2 Addition
An area in which patients are normally cared for, the patient vicinity is the space with surfaces likely
to be in contact with the patient or attendant who can touch the patient. This encloses a space within
the room of 1.83 m (6 ft.) beyond the perimeter of the bed (examination table, dental chair,
treatment booth, and the like) in its intended location, and extending vertically 2.29 m (7.5 ft.) above
the floor.
•Patient Environment IEC 60601-1-1
Sub clause 2.204
Such an area is an environment in which medical diagnosis, monitoring or treatment is carried out.
It is very difficult to attach unique dimensions to the PATIENT ENVIRONMENT. In practice a
distance of 2,5 m (8.2 ft.) above the floor on which the medical personnel stand and a horizontal
distance of 1,5 m (4.9 ft.) have justified themselves as indicative of the dimensions of the Patient
Environment. The patient environment/vicinity is depicted as a dashed line in this procedure - see

1-9-1Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)
Electromagnetic compatibility describes a level of performance of a device within its electromagnetic
environment. This environment consists of the device itself and its surroundings, including other
equipment, power sources and persons with which the device must interface. Inadequate compatibility
results when a susceptible device fails to perform as intended due to interference from its environment,
or when the device produces unacceptable levels of emission. This interference is often referred to as
radio–frequency or electromagnetic interference (RFI/EMI) and can be radiated through space or
conducted over interconnecting power or signal cables. In addition to electromagnetic energy, EMC
also includes possible effects from electrical fields, magnetic fields, electrostatic discharge and
disturbances in the electrical power supply.
NOTE:The Venue Go™ ultrasound scanner needs special precautions regarding EMC and needs to
be installed and put into service according to the EMC information provided in the accompanying
documents (supplied with the system).
NOTE:Portable and mobile RF communications equipment can affect the Venue Go™ ultrasound scanner.
THE USE OF ACCESSORIES, TRANSDUCERS AND CABLES OTHER THAN THOSE
SPECIFIED, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF TRANSDUCERS AND CABLES SOLD BY THE
MANUFACTURER OF THE Venue Go™ AS REPLACEMENT PARTS FOR INTERNAL
COMPONENTS, MAY RESULT IN INCREASED EMISSIONS OR DECREASED IMMUNITY
OF THE Venue Go™ .
THE Venue Go™ SHOULD NOT BE USED ADJACENT TO OR STACKED WITH OTHER
EQUIPMENT AND THAT IF ADJACENT OR STACKED USE IS NECESSARY, THE Venue
Go™ SHOULD BE OBSERVED TO VERIFY NORMAL OPERATION IN THE
CONFIGURATION IN WHICH IT WILL BE USED.
NOTE:This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy. The equipment may cause
radio frequency interference to other medical and non-medical devices and radio communications. To
provide reasonable protection against such interference, this product complies with emissions limits for
a Group 1, Class A Medical Devices Directive as stated in EN 60601-1-2. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.

The Venue Go™ is fully compliant with the following standard:
IEC61000-3-3 and EN\IEC60601-1-2.
2-2-6EMI Limitations
Ultrasound machines are susceptible to Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) from radio frequencies,
magnetic fields, and transients in the air or wiring. They also generate EMI. The Venue Go™ ultrasound
unit complies with limits as stated on the EMC label. However, there is no guarantee that interference
will not occur in a particular setup.
NOTE:Possible EMI sources should be identified before the unit is installed, and should not be on the same
line as the ultrasound system. A dedicated line should be used for the ultrasound system.
Electrical and electronic equipment may produce EMI unintentionally as the result of a defect. Some of
these sources include:
•medical lasers
•scanners
•cauterizing guns
•computers
•monitors
•fans
•gel warmers
•microwave ovens
•light dimmers
•mobile phones
•in-house wireless phones (DECT phones)
•wireless computer keyboard and mouse
•air conditioning system
•High Frequency (HF) surgery equipment

2-2-7EMI Prevention/Abatement
The following table lists recommendations for preventing EMI:
Table 2-4 EMI Prevention/ Abatement
EMI RuleDetails
Ground the unit.
Be aware of RF sources.
Replace and/or reassemble
all screws, RF gaskets,
covers and cores.
Replace broken RF gaskets.
Do not place labels where
RF gaskets touch metal.
Use GE-specified harnesses
and peripherals.
Take care with cellular
phones.
Properly address peripheral
cables.
Poor grounding is the most likely reason an ultrasound unit will have noisy images.
Check the grounding of the power cord and power outlet.
Keep the unit at least 5m (16.4 ft) away from other EMI sources. Special shielding may
be required to eliminate interference problems caused by high frequency, high powered
radio or video broadcast signals.
After you finish repairing or updating the system, replace all covers and tighten all
screws. Any cable with an external connection requires a magnet wrap at each end.
Install the shield over the front of the card cage. Loose or missing covers or RF gaskets
allow radio frequencies to interfere with the ultrasound signals.
If more than 20% or a pair of the fingers on an RF gasket are broken, replace the gasket.
Do not turn ON the unit until any loose metallic part is removed and replaced, if required.
Never place a label where RF gaskets meet the unit. Otherwise, the gap created will
permit RF leakage. In case a label has been found in such a location, move the label to
a different, appropriate location.
The interconnect cables are grounded and require ferrite beads and other shielding.
Cable length, material, and routing are all important; do not make any changes that do
not meet all specifications.
Cellular phones may transmit a 5 V/m signal that causes image artifacts.
Do not allow cables to lie across the top of the system. Loop any peripheral cable excess
length into one bundle.

2-3-1Purchaser Responsibilities
The work and materials required to prepare the site are the responsibility of the purchaser. To avoid
delay, complete all pre-setup work before delivery. Use the Pre-setup Check List (provided in
Table 2-7 on page 2-15)to verify that all the required steps have been completed.
Purchaser responsibilities include:
•Procuring the required materials.
•Completing the preparations prior to delivery of the ultrasound system.
•Paying the costs of any alterations and modifications not specifically provided for in the sales
contract.
Note:All electrical installations that are preliminary to the positioning of the equipment at the site
prepared for the equipment must be performed by licensed electrical contractors. Other
connections between pieces of electrical equipment, calibrations, and testing must also be
performed by qualified personnel. The products involved (and the accompanying electrical
installations) are highly sophisticated and special engineering competence is required. All
electrical work on these products must comply with the requirements of applicable electrical
codes. The purchaser of GE equipment must only utilize qualified personnel to perform
electrical servicing on the equipment.
The desire to use a non–listed or customer provided product or to place an approved product further
from the Ultrasound system than the interface kit allows, presents challenges to the installation team.
To avoid delays during installation, such variances should be made known to the individuals or group
performing the installation at the earliest possible date (preferably prior to the purchase).
The ultrasound suite must be clean prior to delivery of the Ultrasound system. Carpet is not
recommended because it collects dust and creates static. Potential sources of EMI (electromagnetic
interference) should also be investigated before delivery. Dirt, static, and EMI can negatively impact
Ultrasound system reliability.
To avoid delays during setup, the individual or team who will perform the setup should be notified at the
earliest possible date (preferably prior to setup), of the existence of any of the following variances:
•Use of any non-listed product(s).
•Use of any customer provided product(s).
•Placement of an approved product further from the system than the interface kit allows.
The prepared site must be clean prior to delivery of the system. Carpeting is not recommended because
it collects dust and creates static. Potential sources of EMI should also be investigated before delivery.
Dirt, static, and EMI can negatively impact system reliability.
