Frequently asked questions
What is the SleepSense Piezo Respiratory Effort Kit used for?
The SleepSense Piezo Respiratory Effort Kit is designed for professional use in respiratory monitoring, specifically to convert chest or abdominal respiration movement into an analog voltage, providing a clear indication of respiration waveforms.
What components are included in the SleepSense Respiratory Effort Kit?
The kit includes:
- One Piezo Crystal Respiratory Effort Sensor
- One band featuring a double buckle design and safety DIN connectors.
What type of sensor technology does the SleepSense kit utilize?
The SleepSense kit employs Piezo-Electric Crystal technology to provide a clear and stable signal for accurate respiratory effort measurement.
What are the typical polygraph settings for this sensor?
The typical polygraph settings recommended for use with the SleepSense Piezo Crystal Respiratory Effort Sensor are:
- Sensitivity: 100 to 300 µV/mm
- Low Frequency Filter: 0.1 Hz
- High Frequency Filter: 70 Hz
Additionally, the typical signal amplitude is 1 mV peak to peak, although this can vary based on sensor placement, strap tension, and the characteristics of the polygraph equipment.
How long is the sensor cable?
The cable connected to the Piezo Crystal Respiratory Effort Sensor measures 6 feet 7 inches (6’7”) in length.
It is constructed using white PVC insulation tinsel wire and terminates in a 1.5 mm touch-proof connector, suitable for integration with AC (low level) data acquisition channels on compatible polygraph devices.
What are the operating temperature and humidity ranges for the SleepSense respiratory effort kit?
The operating conditions are:
- Temperature: 40 to 104 °F
- Humidity: 5 to 95% (non-condensing)
The storage conditions are:
- Temperature: -4 to 140 °F
- Humidity: 5 to 95% (non-condensing)
Is the SleepSense Piezo Respiratory Effort Kit suitable for home use?
No, this kit is specifically designed for professional use and is for sale by or on the order of a physician only.
How does the isolated element design benefit the respiratory effort sensor?
The isolated element design offers excellent immunity to environmental artifacts, ensuring clean signal acquisition during respiratory monitoring.
What is the typical signal amplitude produced by the SleepSense respiratory effort sensor?
The typical signal amplitude is 1 mV peak to peak. However, signal amplitudes may vary based on sensor position, strap tension, and polygraph characteristics.
What are the sensor's physical specifications?
The Piezo Crystal Respiratory Effort Sensor is designed for accurate and stable measurement, featuring a compact housing and a long cable for flexible positioning.
Key physical specifications include:
- Sensor ABS Box Dimensions: 1 inch x 0.7 inches x 0.5 inches
- Overall Sensor Physical Size: 3 inches side to side
- Cable Length: 6 feet 7 inches (insulated with white PVC tinsel wire)
- Connector Type: 1.5 mm touch-proof connector
