It may be dangerous for people to remain in the immediate proximity of the product – 

especially for those with pacemakers, implants or similar – due to electric, magnetic and 

electromagnetic fields (EMF) occurring as a consequence of operation.  
The machine/system operator and the people present near the product must observe the 

relevant guidelines and standards! These are, for example, in the European Economic Area 

(EEA) the Electromagnetic Fields Directive 2004/40/EC and the standards EN 12198-1 to 

12198-3 and in the Federal Republic of Germany the Employer's Liability Insurance 

Association Regulations for the Prevention of Industrial Accidents BGV 11, with the relevant

Then a risk assessment must be carried out for every workplace, activities for reducing 

dangers and exposure for people decided upon and implemented, as well as determining 

and observing exposure and danger areas.
