Frequently asked questions
What specific safety certifications does the Generic Equivalent hold?
The Generic Equivalent variant (manufactured by Cables and Sensors) carries extensive quality and safety certifications, ensuring compliance with strict regulatory standards. It is also confirmed to be latex-free.
Key certifications include:
- Regulatory Approvals: FDA, CE, and TUV.
- Biocompatibility Standard: ISO10993-1, 5, 10:2003E.
- Environmental Compliance: RoHS compliant (Restriction of Hazardous Substances).
Does the Original cell cover the full 0 to 100% O2 range?
Yes, the Original (Maxtec manufactured) MAX-250ESF Oxygen Cell is designed to accurately measure oxygen concentration across the full range, from 0 to 100% O₂.
Is the generic equivalent latex-free?
Yes, the Generic Equivalent version of the Maxtec MAX-250ESF Oxygen Cell is latex-free.
What are the differences between the original and generic sensors?
The Maxtec MAX-250ESF Oxygen Cell is available in two distinct configurations: the Original Maxtec part (MPN: R115P85) and a Generic Equivalent (MPN: G0-250). Both are factory-new sensors for measuring the Fraction of Inspired Oxygen ($ ext{FiO}_2$), but they cater to different needs based on performance requirements and budget.
The Original sensor prioritizes superior performance metrics and operational longevity, while the Generic Equivalent offers cost-effectiveness, material benefits (latex-free), and explicit regulatory certifications.
Here is a comparison of the key specifications:
| Feature | Original Maxtec (#R115P85) | Generic Equivalent (#G0-250) |
|---|---|---|
| Response Time | Faster: $\le 5$ seconds | Rapid: < 12 seconds |
| Expected Lifetime | > 500,000 %$ ext{O}_2$ hours | Not specified |
| Material | Standard | Latex-free, Non-sterile |
| Certifications | Interference Compliance (EN ISO 80601-2-55) | FDA, CE, TUV, RoHS Compliant (and others) |
| Warranty | 1 Year Shelf Life | 18 Months (against manufacturing defects) |
What is the Original cell's operational temperature range?
The Original Maxtec MAX-250ESF Oxygen Cell is engineered for reliable performance across a standard operating environment.
- The operational temperature range is 0 to 40 °C.
- It also offers excellent temperature compensation, maintaining high accuracy with less than ±3.5% of full-scale error between 15 to 40 °C.
Does this oxygen cell use the Type 712A Switchcraft interface?
Yes, both configurations of the MAX-250ESF Oxygen Cell—the Original Maxtec version and the Generic Equivalent—utilize the Type 712A Switchcraft Power Jack for the electrical interface.
Does the Original oxygen cell offer high temperature stability?
Yes, the Original Maxtec MAX-250ESF Oxygen Cell is engineered for high stability across clinical temperatures.
Key stability features include:
- Temperature Compensation: The sensor limits the measurement error due to temperature changes to less than ±3.5% of full-scale error in the range of 15 to 40 °C.
- Operational Range: It is designed to function accurately within an operational temperature range of 0 to 40 °C.
What is the Original cell's storage temperature range?
The Original Maxtec MAX-250ESF Oxygen Cell is designed to be stored safely within a wide temperature range of -20 °C to 50 °C.
Does this sensor have a long expected lifetime?
The expected lifetime specification applies specifically to the Original Maxtec MAX-250ESF Oxygen Cell (part #R115P85). This high-performance variant is designed for maximum durability, offering an expected operational life of greater than 500,000 %O2 hours.
Does the sensor offer a fast response time?
Yes, both available configurations of the oxygen cell offer fast response times essential for accurate $\text{FiO}_2$ monitoring in clinical settings. The speed varies based on the option you choose:
- Original Maxtec Sensor: Features a rapid response time of 5 seconds or less.
- Generic Equivalent Sensor: Provides a fast response time of under 12 seconds.
This performance ensures timely and reliable data reporting when integrated into compatible ventilation systems.
