Brian, in the EU all pacemakers must comply with the immunity requirements of EN50061/A1:1995. There are no real requirements in the US.
Pacemakers must not malfunction when a 1V peak to peak sine signal with a frequency range of 20 Hz-500 Hz is applied to a tissue interface simulation circuit connected to the pacemaker. In another test, the pacemaker must continue to function normally when a modulated signal is applied. 2 mVpp, 20 Hz-1 kHz; 2 mVpp X f/1 kHz from 1 kHz-8 MHz; 16 Vpp, 8 MHz-30MHz. If you have some real concerns, Georgia Tech Research Institute can test your equipment with pacemakers.

What types of emissions and levels are Pacemakers sensitive to? Does a product evaluation check list exist to help determine this. I know nothing about Pacemakers. BTW, we manufacture laboratory and IT equipment. Thank you, Brian --------- This message is coming from the emc-pstc discussion list.
