• Robust Design: The unit is lightweight (0.72 lb) and features rugged, fully-enclosed, touchproof connections for maximum reliability in clinical environments.

The Natus Xltek EEG32U EEG Amplifier supports simultaneous data acquisition at a high maximum sampling rate, ensuring detailed signal capture for clinical use.

Key specifications related to data quality include:

• Maximum Sample Rate: 1024 Hz
• Analog Conversion Resolution: 16-bit
• Channel Count: 32 AC referential channels, plus two dedicated ground and reference channels

The Natus Xltek EEG32U EEG Amplifier is designed to capture a wide range of frequencies, crucial for comprehensive clinical analysis.

Its operational bandwidth is set from 0.1 to 400 Hz.

Yes, the Xltek EEG32U is designed for easy, modern clinical integration, relying on standard interfaces:

• It connects to the acquisition PC via a standard USB 2.0 interface, which conveniently also serves as the sole power source for the unit.
• It supports TCP/IP network connectivity, featuring automatic DHCP discovery for seamless integration into existing clinical networks.

The Natus Xltek EEG32U is engineered to simplify electrode attachment and ensure rapid, reliable data acquisition through two key integrated features:

1. Visual Electrode Guide: The amplifier features a large, intuitive 10-20 head stamp diagram printed directly on the unit. This guide simplifies electrode identification and ensures precise placement according to clinical standards.
2. On-Unit Impedance Check: You can initiate an impedance check directly from the amplifier. The results are displayed immediately via red/green indicator lights right on the unit, confirming electrode contact quality instantly.

These indicators correspond to specific impedance thresholds:

• <2.5 kΩ
• <5 kΩ
• <10 kΩ
• <25 kΩ

This immediate, local feedback mechanism significantly speeds up the setup process for clinical studies.

As a Certified Refurbished unit, the Natus Xltek EEG32U EEG Amplifier package includes the essential components required for immediate use:

• EEG32U EEG Amplifier unit (The compact main 32-channel acquisition device)
• Communication cable (Needed for connecting the unit via USB 2.0 to the acquisition PC)

Yes, the Xltek EEG32U is highly portable due to its compact, lightweight, and rugged design, ensuring dependability across various clinical settings. It weighs only 0.72 lb (327 g).
