Micro-Implantable Thermocouple Probes
For ultra-fast measurements on micro-size specimens. Tissue implantable with a needle (supplied).
- Time constant 0.005 second
Many other thermocouple probes are available.
These electrically isolated probes are for ultra-fast measurementson micro-size specimens. They are tissue implantable with a needle (supplied). These probes are available with either a thin PTFE coating or with a PTFE sheath for added durability similar to the 52-1732 Flexible Implantable Probe, but with the sensor bead exposed.
- Time constant 0.005 second
- Sensor tip and lead diameter only 0.23 mm (0.009 in)
- Maximum temperature 150°C
- 0.9 m (3 ft) lead.
- Supplied individually.
- Rather fragile
Ideal for:
- Rectal measurements in neonatal mice;
- Implantation in brain or muscle tissue
- Inserted into blood vessels
