The Network Unit Installation Isolator 1000G provides a safe plug-in of
medical devices and personal computers within the patient's vicinity into an
IEEE 803.2 (10/100- BaseT,Twisted-Pair) computerNetwork. Workstations are
allowed to operate within the patient's, only if they are designed in compliance
with IEC 60601-1 as a medical device or if they are fitted with an IEC 60601-1
compliant electrical protection system.
All Inputs and Outputs of a medical device to other non medical devices or
Networks outside the surgery environment must comply with IEC-60601-1-1
standard. This galvanic isolation with sufficiently high dielectric strength is
required to meet the IEC-60601-1-1 standard. The Network Unit installation
Isolator 1000G may also be vicinity used in non medical applications. It
provides galvanic isolation for any equipment connected via Ethernet ports to
prevent ground loops.
The Network Unit installation Isolator 1000G is designed for mounting in
housings with a wall thickness of up to 2.5mm. We recommend connecting the
Faston connector (6.3x0.8) with the chassis ground, in order to reduce the
influence of electric radiation emitted from internal cables.
Installation:
The Network Unit Installation Isolator 1000G can be mounted into a panel
cutout as detailed below, using the two mounting screws provided. Optional
bezels may be fitted to improve asthetics, or to also improve user and patient
safety in accordance with IEC 60601-1. Recommended tightening torque: 0.55 Nm.
