IEC 60601-2-24 / Magnetic Field

2002-04-28 Thread amund

Hi all,

A colleague was checking the IEC 60601-2-24:98 and found the Magnetic Field
Req't (paragraph 36.202.6) far too high: 400 Ampere-per-meter! I'd like to
check this requirement for its correctness or history with backgrounds for
such a demand. I know that 3A/m, 10A/m and 30A/m are often used, but 400A/m
.

Can anybody help?

Best regards
Amund Westin, Oslo/Norway

PS: IEC 60601-2-24:98 - Medical electrical equipment - Part 2-24:
Particular requirements for the safety of infusion pumps and controllers

FS: Coherent FSM-86B (3 units)

2002-04-28 Thread Dr. Jeffrey Race

In cleaning out the office I came upon these units, three pieces of
Coherent Communications Corp FSM-86B LSI Subset, a device which allows
piggy-backing a data channel over a phone line, stealing a bit of
bandwidth at about 2800 Hz.  You can key in using +/- 3V to +/- 25V
(so can run a telex over it), or signal via RS-232 or RS-422/423.
Maximum data speed is 600 bps.

I used these for a number of years to extend a telex circuit (remember
them!) over my phone line on a filled cable with no spare pairs in a
foreign country. There are two units to make a pair (one at each end)
and a spare.

Probably not many people have a telex any more, but these units can
work fine to extend any kind of low-speed data over a voice channel.

Offers?  (If not, suggestions where I can flog to find someone in
need?)

Thanks for all advice.

Jeffrey Race
