PicoM-1

Fiber optic PicoM Single channel, handheld signal conditioner tor gaas-based temperature sensors ALTHEN SENSORS & CONTROLS PicoM ■ Description The PicoM is a compact and portable signal conditioner to be used with the GaAs (SCBG) OTG-M series fiber optic temperature sensor. At the heart of the PicoM is Semiconductor Band Gap (SCBG) technology which provides a mean for making accurate measurements of the temperature- dependent bandgap position of GaAs crystal. The PicoM is equipped with a large visible LCD display and can be battery operated. It comes with a standard ±5 V output and a RS-232 communication port for real-time data acquisition. The PicoM can be controlled directly using the front-panel keypad or remotely using the standard RS-232 interface. A rugged casing with a removable rubber boot provides good mechanical protection against intensive handling in tough environments. With a 50 Hz sampling rate and a ±0.3°C accuracy (total accuracy including both signal conditioner and sensor errors), the PicoM delivers the performances needed for a wide range of medical applications. Use with the GaAs (SCBG) OTG-M serie temperature sensors ■ Key features • Compact and rugged design with rubber boot casing protection • Versatile and easy to use with large LCD display • High linearity and precision • 50 Hz sampling rate • ± 5 V and RS-232 output interfaces ■ Applications • MRI, RF, EMI, ultrasound and electro surgery environments • Temperature monitoring for preclinical and research applications • High voltage environments
