Converter Kit DVI to S-Video 19179
1 Electrical Safety
1.1 Classification
The Converter Kit is classified as Class II Equipment
according to IEC 60601-1 and has to be tested accordingly.
Electrical equipment in which protection
against electric shock does not rely on
basic insulation only, but in which
additional safety precautions such as
double insulation or reinforced insulation
are provided, there being no provision for
protective earth or reliance upon
installation conditions.
1.2 Test Interval
For details on the test interval including training requirements
for test personnel please refer to the Technical User Guide of
the Brainlab navigation system.
1.3 Test Steps to be performed
Instructions and Conditions
Check all relevant cables for dents,
damaged isolation and blank lines. Move
and bend the cables around your hand to
slightly stretch the isolation. Any visible
damage is not acceptable.
Check the Converter Kit for visible
damage, broken cables and blank lines.
You should not be able to see the interior
of the Converter Kit or the power supply.
Damaged cables, blank lines or visibility of
the interior are not acceptable.
If any damage is detected, remove the
device from operation, mark as such and
contact Brainlab support.

Equipment
leakage
current
Plug in Converter Kit mains power supply
using the original Brainlab mains power
cable. Test the equipment leakage current
according to IEC 62353:2014 Chapter
5.3.4.2.4 using the “differential method”
with the following additional conditions:
Measurements are performed at
mains voltage.
Measurements are performed in
both positions of the mains plug, if
possible.
When measuring in the various positions of
the mains plug, document the higher value.
Connect the Converter Kit to your
measuring device using the provided
Brainlab mains power cable. Test the
insulation resistance according to IEC
62353:2014 Chapter 5.3.3
Report and
evaluate
results
Generate a report and determine whether
the device is safe and effective.
Check and
prepare for
normal use
After testing, check that the Converter Kit
is restored to the conditions necessary for
normal use before being returned into
service. Remove all devices that have
been connected, e.g., measurement lines.
1.4 Equipment Leakage Current Test
Connect the measurement tip of your measuring device with the
conductive parts shown below and measure the leakage
current.

fixation
1.5 Protective Earth Test (Power Cable only)
Protective Earth resistance of
power cable
Insulation Resistance Test
Connect the Converter Kit using the Brainlab mains power
cable to the electrical safety tester and test the insulation
resistance. The electrical safety tester shows whether the
device passes or fails.
Insulation resistance test
with 500 Vdc for five
seconds
1.6 ME System
When the Converter Kit is connected to the Brainlab
navigation system and the video source, e.g. a C-arm, the
responsible organisation has to conduct an enclosure leakage
test according to IEC 62353. For applicable measuring points
see the Instructions for Use of the Converter Kit, the Brainlab
navigation system and the video source, e.g. C-arm.
The ME System may exceed threshold values for ME
Equipment leakage current specified in IEC 60601-1: 2012.
