Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)

Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)

What is 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 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.

Compliance

Vivid E80/E90/E95 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.
For applicable standards, refer to the Safety Chapter of the Ultrasound system’s User’s Manual.
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.

EMI limitations

Ultrasound systems are susceptible to Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) from radio frequencies, magnetic fields, and transients in the air or wiring. They also generate EMI. The Ultrasound system 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 Ultrasound system is installed.
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
• general AC/DC adapters
The presence of a broadcast station or broadcast van may also cause interference.
See: ‘EMI prevention/abatement’ on page 2-8 for EMI prevention tips.

EMI prevention/abatement

Table 2-4: EMI prevention/abatement
EMI RULE DETAILS
Be aware of Radio Frequency sources
Ground the Ultrasound system
Replace all screws, Radio Frequency gaskets, covers, cores
Replace broken Radio Frequency gaskets
Do not place labels where Radio Frequency gaskets touch metal
Keep the Ultrasound system at least 5 meters (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 an Ultrasound system will have noisy images. Check grounding of the power cord and power outlet.
After you finish repairing or updating the Ultrasound system, replace all covers and tighten all screws.
Any cable with an external connection requires a magnet wrap at each end.
Install all covers. Loose or missing covers or Radio Frequency gaskets allow radio frequencies to interfere with the ultrasound signals.
If more than 20% or a pair of the fingers on an Radio Frequency gasket are broken, replace the gasket. Do not turn on the Ultrasound system until any loose metallic part is removed.
Where applicable, never place a label where Radio Frequency gaskets meet the Ultrasound system. Otherwise, the gap created will permit Radio Frequency leakage. Or, if a label has been found in such a position, move the label.
Use GE specified harnesses and peripherals
Take care with cellular phones
Properly route peripheral cables
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.
Where applicable, 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
Purchaser responsibilities (continued)
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) shou ld als o be inve stig at ed before delivery. Dirt, static, and EMI can negatively impact Ultrasound system reliability.

Purpose of the DICOM network function
DICOM services provide the operator with clinically useful features for moving images and patient information over a hospital network.
Examples of DICOM services include the transfer of images to workstations for viewing or transferring images to remote printers.
As an added benefit, transferring images in this manner frees up the on-board monitor and peripherals, enabling viewing to be done while scanning continues.
With DICOM, images can be archived, stored, and retrieved faster, easier, and at a lower cost.
DICOM option setup requirements
To configure the Ultrasound system to work with other network connections, the site’s network administrator must provide information to complete the form “Worksheet for DICOM Network Information”. Ensure that there ar e no spaces in any field of the form.
Entries must include:
A host name, local port number, AE Title, IP address and Net Mask for the Ultrasound system.
The IP addresses for the default gateway and other routers at the site for ROUTING INFORMATION.
The host name, IP address, port and AE Title for each device the site wants connected to the Ultrasound system for DICOM APPLICATION INFORMATION. A field for the make (manufacturer) and the revision of the device, is also included. This information may be useful for error solving.

Environmental Dangers

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 stand ar ds. Suitable electrical isolation of such external AC outlets, or providing the device with extra protective earth, will be required in order to meet UL60601-1 and IEC60601-1 / IEC60601-1-1 standards for electrical leakage.

Patient Vicinity UL60601-1 (USA)

2.12.20DV (UL60601-1:2003)
In area in which patients are normally cared for, the patient vicinity is the space with surfaces likely to be contacted by the patient or attendant who can touch the patient. This encloses a space within the room 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.
