Temperature Pods
Suitable for general temperature measurements in the range 0-50°C using either Thermocouple or Temperature Probes.
Frequently purchased with Temperature Pods
Overview
ADInstruments Temperature Pods are suitable for general temperature measurements in the range 0-50°C using either Thermocouple probes or Transducers.
Thermocouple Probes suitable for use with the Temperature Pods:
- General Purpose Thermocouple Probe
- T-type Implantable Thermocouple Probe (0.6 mm)
- T-type Ultra Fast Thermocouple Probe (IT-23)
- Rectal Probe for Rats
- Rectal Probe for Mice
- T-type Implantable Thermocouple Probe (0.4 mm)
Transducers suitable for use with the Thermistor Pod:
ADInstruments signal conditioners only function with PowerLab data acquisition units and therefore are not suitable for use with other data acquisition systems.
Key Features
- Amplification of thermocouple voltage signal to produce 10 mV/°C @ 25°C (T-type) and 50 mV/°C within the temperature range 5°C to 50°C (Thermistor).
- Filtering to reduce noise bandwidth, allowing fast temperature transients to be monitored. (T-type Pod filters by a 2 pole 10 Hz Butterworth filter, Thermistor Pod filters by a 3-pole 10Hz low-pass filter).
- T-type Pod has an Ice Point Reference compensation provided by the direct measurement of the input connector temperature.
- Thermistor Pod has a switchable offset circuit which provides a delta temperature mode for relative temperature measurement.
