Transducers are sensors that convert biological signals into electrical analog signals. The analog signal is then digitized using a PowerLab DAQ. We offer a wide range of pressure and force transducers for research applications including blood pressure, telemetry, temperature and respiratory measurements.
Flexible Balloon Catheters
Used with latex balloons for measuring left ventricular pressure in the isolated rat heart preparation.
Tendon Hammers
Tendon Hammers available for connection via the BNC input channel or 8-pin Din (Pod) input channel of any PowerLab recording system, to provide triggering, timer or marker signals.
Recording Bar Electrode
The recording Bar Electrode has two 9 mm concave disk contacts spaced 30 mm apart. The leads from this electrode connect directly
Grip Force Transducer
A pre-calibrated ready-to-use strain gauge based isometric dynamometer with a linear response in the 0-800 N range.
Reusable BP Transducers
Low-cost, light-weight, reusable blood pressure transducers that use an extravascular sensor system to measure blood pressure
Force Transducers
A range of research-grade force transducers are available for forces between 0g and 1kg.
Disposable BP Transducers
The Disposable Blood Pressure (BP) Transducers are designed to give consistent and accurate readings of arterial and venous blood pressure measurements in large animals, and general blood pressure related measurements, such as mean BP and heart rate, in small animals.
IR Plethysmographs
The Plethysmograph is an infrared photoelectric sensor used to record changes in pulsatile blood flow.
Sphygmomanometers
Demonstrate clinical blood pressure measurements in a lecture, tutorial or practical class with these sphygmomanometers, each of which is coupled to a pressure transducer.
