The SleepSense Adult ThermoCouple Flow Sensor (# 1401) with standard DIN connectors employs a high thermal mass design. This provides improved correlation with flow values as well as temperature values.
Warranty: 6 Months - Free of Defects in Materials and Quality Workmanship.
Designed with stiff prongs that are adjustable for patient comfort, these sturdy and durable sensors will deliver a smooth flow signal throughout the night.
Comprised of heat-sensitive elements, the respiration flow sensor is placed under the patient's nostrils and produces a signal that is directly proportional to the temperature changes of air inhaled and exhaled during respiration. The sensor generates a small analog electrical voltage that provides a clear, reliable indication of respiration airflow.
The sensor should be connected to your system's thermal-flow input or, when using the interface, to any AC (low level) channel on the recorder.
NOTE: SleepSense items are for professional use only, and are for sale by or on the order of a physician only.
