Safety Considerations--Emission Warning

Emission Warning

Your eQCM 10M Impedance Scanning Electrochemical Quartz Crystal Microbalance generates, uses, and

can radiate radio-frequency energy. The radiated levels are low enough that the instrument should not

create an interference problem in most industrial laboratory environments.

The eQCM 10M has been tested for both radiated and conducted RF interference and has been found to

be in compliance with EN 50081-1, 55011, and 55022 and 61000-4-3.

Electrical Transient Sensitivity

Your eQCM 10M Impedance Scanning Electrochemical Quartz Crystal Microbalance was designed to offer

reasonable immunity from electrical transients, including transients on the incoming AC Mains supply and

Electrostatic Discharge. It has been tested for compliance with EN 580082-2, 61010-1, and EN 61010-2-

081. The eQCM 10M is not rated for continuous use when subject to ESD events. It should suffer no

permanent damage when subject to the standard ESD events defined in EN61000-4-2, but may cease

normal operation until it is switched off and restarted.

In severe cases, the instrument could malfunction as a result of electrical transients such as a static

discharge. If you are having problems in this regard, the following steps may help:

If the problem is static electricity (sparks are apparent when you touch the instrument or its cables):

• Placing the instrument on a static control work surface may help. Static control work surfaces are now

generally available from computer supply houses and electronics tool suppliers. An antistatic floor

mat may also help, particularly if a carpet is involved in generating the static electricity.

• Air ionizers or even simple air humidifiers can reduce the voltage available in static discharges.

If the problem is AC power line transients (often from large electrical motors near the instrument):

• Try plugging your eQCM 10M into a different AC power branch circuit.

• Plug your eQCM 10M into a power-line surge-suppressor. Inexpensive surge-suppressors are now

generally available because of their use with computer equipment.

Contact Gamry Instruments, Inc. if these measures do not solve the problem.

CE Compliance

The European Community has instituted standards limiting radio-frequency interference emitted by

electronic devices, setting limits for susceptibility of apparatus to RF energy and transient events, and

mandating safety requirements. The eQCM 10M Impedance Scanning Electrochemical Quartz Crystal

Microbalance has been tested to comply with these standards.

The relevant CE regulations include EN 61010 and EN 61326.

RoHS Compliance

The eQCM 10M Impedance Scanning Electrochemical Quartz Crystal Microbalance has been built using

lead-free components and lead-free solder. It is in compliance with the European RoHS initiative.
