Technical background:
The philosophy behind NeuLog’s plug and play technology is based on each sensor’s
ability to store its own data due to an internal flash memory chip and micro-controller
in each plastic NeuLog body. This technology allows the sensor to collect and then
store the digital data in the correct scientific units (
o
C,
o
F, Lux, %, ppm, for example).
The sensor is pre-calibrated at the factory. The built-in software in the logger can be
upgraded for free at any time using the provided firmware update.
The blood pressure sensor houses a flexible partial pressure membrane which flexes
based on pressure differentials. When the user inhales, a pressure is applied directly
to the blood pressure monitor cuff’s bladder and detected by the internal sensing unit.
When the pressure change is detected the flexible membrane creates an electrical
output which is related to the amount of pressure being applied. The voltage reading
is easily converted into millimeters of mercury and arbitrary units to monitor blood
pressure rate.
Maintenance and storage:
Never submerge the NeuLog plastic body in any liquid.
Do not allow liquid into the blood pressure sensor’s body.
After use, gently wipe away any foreign material from the blood pressure
sensor.
Store in a box at room temperature out of direct sunlight.
Warranty:
We promise to deliver our sensor free of defects in materials and workmanship for a
period of 3 years from the date of purchase. Our warranty does not cover damage of
the product caused by improper use, abuse, or incorrect storage. Sensors with a shelf
life such as ion selective proves have a warranty of 1 year. Should you need to act
