ResMed Adapt SV System manual Separation distance according to frequency of transmitter

Recommended separation distances between portable and mobile RF communications equipment and the VPAP Adapt SV

The VPAP Adapt SV is intended for use in an environment in which radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of the VPAP Adapt SV can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters) and the VPAP Adapt SV as recommended below, according to the maximum output power of the communications equipment.

	Separation distance according to frequency of transmitter
	m
Rated maximum output	150 kHz to 80 MHz	80 MHz to 800 MHz	800 MHz to 2.5 GHz
power of transmitter	d = 1.17 √P	d = 0.35 √P	d = 0.70 √P
W
0.01	0.17	0.04	0.07
0.1	0.37	0.11	0.22
1	1.17	0.35	0.70
10	3.69	1.11	2.21
100	11.70	3.50	7.00

For transmitters rated at a maximum output power not listed above, the recommended separation distance d in meters (m) can be determined using the equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter, where P is the maximum output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter manufacturer.

NOTE 1: At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the separation distance for the higher frequency range applies.

NOTE 2: These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people.
