Martin,

I am not aware of any emission requirements. On occasion when the 510K is
submitted and reviewed the FDA will sometimes request emissions testing. If
it never finds its way into hospital environment, then FCC requirements
should be considered since it is no longer a medical device.

Subject:        FDA requirements


When producing equipment that uses flat screen (LCD) 1/4 VGA displays,
is there any requirement to meet FDA emission requirements (overall
equipment is not for medical use, and would never find its way into a
hospital environment).

I only ask as one of my collegues is quite insistent that we have to
consider the requirement (because he had to in his previous job, again
not medical equipment). Its the first time i've come across it and all
i can find on the subject are advisory guideline requirements, no
mandatory requirements.

Anybody able to shed some more light on this for me.
Web sites, any info. gratefully received.

Many Thanks

MJ.
