Section 1-4
EMC, EMI, and ESD
1-4-1Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) and Interference (EMI)
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 interference from its environment or
when the device produces unacceptable levels of emission to its environment. 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 of 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.
1-4-2CE Compliance
Vivid 7 / Vivid 7 PRO conforms to all applicable conducted and radiated emission limits and to immunity
from electrostatic discharge, radiated and conducted RF fields, magnetic fields and power line transient
requirements.
Applicable standards are: 47CFR Part 18, IEC 601–1–2, and 806–13.
NOTE:For CE Compliance, it is critical that all covers, screws, shielding, gaskets, mesh, clamps, are
in good condition, installed tightly without skew or stress. Proper installation following all
comments noted in this service manual is required in order to achieve full EMC performance.
1-4-3Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Prevention
WARNINGWARNING
2.)
DO NOT TOUCH ANY BOARDS WITH INTEGRATED CIRCUITS PRIOR TO TAKING THE
NECESSARY ESD PRECAUTIONS:
1. ALWAYS CONNECT YOURSELF, VIA AN ARM-WRIST STRAP, TO THE ADVISED ESD
CONNECTION POINT LOCATED ON THE REAR OF THE SCANNER (TO THE RIGHT OF
THE POWER CONNECTOR).
2. FOLLOW GENERAL GUIDELINES FOR HANDLING OF ELECTROSTATIC SENSITIVE
EQUIPMENT.

The cooling requirement for the Vivid 7 / Vivid 7 PRO is 3500 BTU/hr. This figure does not include
cooling needed for lights, people, or other equipment in the room. Each person in the room places an
additional 300 BTU/hr. demand on the cooling system.
2-2-1-2Lighting
Bright light is needed for system installation, updates and repairs. However, operator and patient
comfort may be optimized if the room light is subdued and indirect. Therefore a combination lighting
system (dim/bright) is recommended. Keep in mind that lighting controls and dimmers can be a source
of EMI which could degrade image quality. These controls should be selected to minimize possible
interference.

Max 10 ms.
Power Transients
(All applications)
Less than 25% of nominal peak voltage for less than 1 millisecond for any type of transient, including
line frequency, synchronous, asynchronous, or aperiodic transients.
2-2-3EMI 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 Vivid 7 / Vivid 7 PRO
complies with limits as stated on the EMC label. However there is no guarantee that interference will not
occur in a particular installation.
Possible EMI sources should be identified before the unit is installed.
Electrical and electronic equipment may produce EMI unintentionally as the result of a defect. These
sources include:
•medical lasers,
•scanners,
•cauterizing guns,
•computers,
•monitors,
•fans,
•gel warmers,
•microwave ovens,
•light dimmers
•portable phones.
The presence of a broadcast station or broadcast van may also cause interference.
See Table 2-5 on page 2-5 for EMI Prevention tips.

2-2-3 EMI Limitations (cont’d).
Table 2-5 EMI Prevention/abatement
EMI RuleDetails
Be aware of RF sources
Ground the unit
Replace all screws, RF
gaskets, covers, 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 dress peripheral
cables
Keep the unit at least 5 meters or 15 feet 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.
Poor grounding is the most likely reason a unit will have noisy images. Check grounding of the
power cord and power outlet.
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 Card Rack
cover over the Card Rack. 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.
Never place a label where RF gaskets meet the unit. Otherwise, the gap created will permit
RF leakage. Or, if a label has been found in such a position, move the label.
The interconnect cables are grounded and require ferrite beads and other shielding. Also,
cable length, material, and routing are all important; do not change from what is specified.
Cellular phones may transmit a 5 V/m signal; that could cause image artifacts.
Do not allow cables to lie across the top of the Card Rack or hang out of the peripheral bays.
Loop the excess length for peripheral cables inside the peripheral bays. Attach the monitor
cables to the frame.

Facility Needs
2-3-1Purchaser Responsibilities
The work and materials needed to prepare the site is the responsibility of the purchaser. Delay,
confusion, and waste of manpower can be avoided by completing pre installation work before delivery.
Purchaser responsibility includes:
•Procuring the materials required.
•Completing the preparations before delivery of the ultrasound system.
•Paying the costs for any alterations and modifications not specifically provided 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 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 machine. 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 system reliability.
