Hummingbird Sensing Technology's Paracube Modus is said to be the first vibration resistant, portable paramagnetic oxygen sensor
Hummingbird Sensing Technology designed the Paracube Modus specifically for integration into intra-hospital ventilation equipment.
The Paracube Modus is built on Hummingbird’s paracube platform which integrates Hummingbird’s magneto-dynamic paramagnetic oxygen sensing technology into a compact, resistance of hazardous substances (RoHS)-compliant sensor optimised for OEM integration.
According to Hummingbird, the Paracube Modus represents the first time this technology has been developed for intra-hospital applications that require precise oxygen controlled delivery.
Martin Cox, market sector manager – sensing technologies, Hummingbird, said: “Our customers identified the need for an oxygen sensor that can withstand the levels of movement and vibration such as those associated with intra-hospital patient transfers.
“Hummingbird’s engineers responded with a technically advanced and innovative design that meets the challenging conditions of mobile use. Extensive test results show a dramatic reduction in the effects of vibration – up to a factor of 30 times reduction in direct comparison to a standard Paramagnetic cell.”
