CLASSIFICATION THIS INSTRUMENT IS CLASSIFIED AS CLASS I EQUIPMENT. Class I equipment does not depend only on basic insulation for protection against electric shocks, but also provides a means for connecting the equipment to a protective earth system of facilities so that the metal parts that come into contact do not become conductive if the basic insulation fails. GRADE OF PROTECTION AGAINST ELECTRIC SHOCKS This instrument is classified as Type B equipment. Type B equipment provides a specified grade of protection to prevent electric shocks, particularly with regard to the reliability of leak current and patient measuring current, and protective earth connection (in the case of Class I equipment).
