Medical applications
Kinesis Savant Elite devices with the ETL Recognized Component mark,
on the
product label comply with UL 60601-1 and are certified to CSA std C22.2 NO. 601.1
standards for medical use (near patient testing) in the US and Canada (ETL listing 4007055).
This is a standard written by Underwriters Laboratories which is harmonized to the
international standard IEC 60601-1 with the title "Medical Electrical Equipment - Part 1:
General Requirements For Safety." If so marked, the product must be used with a UL listed
computer to comply with UL safety standards. Products which have input jacks for optional
input accessories must only be used with the appropriate Kinesis accessory input devices.
The label will also indicate IPX1 per UL and CE standards for “drip-proof” water resistance.
This product should not be used in an environment (such as an operating room) requiring
water-proof (e.g. IPX8) devices. Equivalent IPX8-rated products are available from Kinesis
by special order. To inquire, email [email protected] or call 800-454-6374.
Flammable gases
Savant Elite devices are not designed to be used in an environment with flammable or
explosive gases, such as an anesthetic mixture with air, oxygen, or nitrous oxide.
Duty cycle
All Savant Elite devices are rated for continuous operation, though the computer or operating
system may affect how the device performs under such conditions. Normal usage consists of
intermittent pressing of the pedal to initiate a specific keyboard or mouse action.
Cleaning
Occasional external cleaning is recommended by wiping the pedals and electronics enclosure
with a damp cloth. Alternatively, a cloth dampened with rubbing alcohol (70% isopropanol)
may be used though any silk-screened graphics on the electronics enclosure may be damaged
over time by solvent effects. Savant Elite products are not designed to be sterilized or to be
used in a sterile environment.
