This Device Meets the Industry Canada Guidelines for Exposure to Radio Waves
The IR829 series device includes a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed not to exceed the limits
for exposure to radio waves (radio frequency electromagnetic fields) as referenced in Health Canada
Safety Code 6. The guidelines include a substantial safety margin designed into the limit to ensure the
safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
As such the systems are designed to be operated as to avoid contact with the antennas by the end user.
It is recommended to set the system in a location where the antennas can remain at least a minimum
distance as specified from the user in accordance to the regulatory guidelines which are designed to
reduce the overall exposure of the user or operator.
MPE
0.63 mW/cm
Health Canada states that present scientific information does not indicate the need for any special
precautions for the use of wireless devices. They recommend that if you are interested in further reducing
your exposure you can easily do so by reorienting antennas away from the user, placing the antennas at
a greater separation distance than recommended, or lowering the transmitter power output.
