EPCOS launches new high-precision disposable type medical thermometer

Apple Coase (EPCOS) production of new disposable thermometer with high accuracy (up to ± 0.1 K) and respond promptly (7s) features. Used to measure patients ' temperature, simple operation, fast. Disposable sensor design concept from mature ceramic technology, that is, a microchip negative temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistor, both the United States food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved materials such as polypropylene, as well as the use of new technology. Through low temperature process will NTC chip and copper wire connected with silver paste, you can minimize the technological lead of the drift of impedance NTC thermistor. Connect with other technologies, such as welding, soldering or cannot achieve this effect. Disposable thermometer the biggest advantage is its response time is very short. If using the traditional way to shorten the measurement time, you must pass a complex prediction method, inferred patients expected temperature. Apple Coase's solution does not need to do so. Therefore, you do not have to pay additional costs for electronic equipment. Apple Marcos have been developed reusable thermometer for long time measurements, such as monitoring operation in the temperature or the conservation of the patient in the baby's body temperature. This product is characterized by a high accuracy, structure and firm and able to withstand sterilization cycle. It can be used in disinfection of 121 ° C for 20 minutes or 134 ° C in 4 minutes, its life cycle is 100 times. Apple Coase used in injection moulding technology guarantees that the product has good resistance to moisture. In contrast, traditional filling technology for production of sensor systems not permeability is relatively low. It's another advantage is with double insulation and high flexibility of the cable, the insulation resistance of more than 100 M Ω, in measuring the temperature of the surface of the skin, reliable performance.
