Intended Use
These sensors are designed to be used to monitor the partial pressure of oxygen in anaesthesia, critical care, incubators and general Oxygen monitors.
Stabilisation time
Allow at least 15 minutes to stabilise in instrument before calibration.
Cleaning and Sterilisation
In case of contamination the sensor may be cleaned with distilled water and allowed to dry naturally. The sensor is not suitable for sterilisation by steam or exposure to chemicals such as ethylene oxide or hydrogen peroxide
Calibration Interval
These sensors are designed to have minimal drift over their useful lifetime however for maximun accuracy they should be calibrated in 100% Oxygen before use.
