Section 1-5 EMC, EMI, and ESD

1-5-1 Electromagnetic 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 refe rred 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.

1-5-2 CE Compliance

The Vivid S5 N and Vivid S6 N ultrasound scanners conform 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.
For applicable standards refer to the Safety Chapter in the Vivid S5 N or Vivid S6 N User Manual.
NOTE: For CE Compliance, it is critical that all covers, screws, shielding, gaskets, mesh and clamps are in good
condition and 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.

1-5-3 Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Prevention

CAUTION: DO NOT TOUCH ANY BOARDS WITH INTEGRATED CIRCUITS PRIOR TO
TAKING THE NECESSARY ESD PRECAUTIONS:

• 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.

2-2-6 EMI 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 S5 N and Vivid S6 N ultrasound unit complies with limits as stated on the EMC label. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.
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 sh ould be used for the ultrasound system.
Electrical and electronic equipment may produce EMI unintentionally as the result of a defect. Sources of EMI include the following:
• Medical lasers.
• Scanners.
• Cauterizing guns.
•Computers.
•Monitors.
•Fans.
• Gel warmers.
• Microwave ovens.
• Portable phones.
• Broadcast stations and mobile broadcasting machines.

PRELIMINARY
2-2-6 EMI Limitations (cont’d)
The following table lists recommendations for preventing EMI:
Table 2-5 EMI Prevention/ Abatement
EMI Rule Details
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.

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.
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 needed.
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.

Use GE specified harnesses and peripherals.
Take care with cellular phones.
Properly address peripheral cables.
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 card cage or hang out of the peripheral bays. Loop any peripheral cable excess length inside the peripheral bays or hang on the hooks provided below the console. Attach the monitor cables to the frame.
