The SleepSense Infant Thermal Flow Sensor is a miniature, nasal flow only, thermocouple sensor (# 1400) especially designed for the respiration flow sensing for infants and preemies. Applied on the forehead, the thermocouple elements produce a strong and clear signal.

Warranty: Factory 6 Months - Free of Defects in Materials and Quality Workmanship.

The SleepSense Infant Thermal Flow Sensor makes use of heat-sensitive elements to generate a signal in response to temperature changes. Due to the small size of the wires, a good signal can even be produced by a weaker flow. The output may be connected to any AC (low level) channel on the recorder.

The infant flow sensor is placed on the infant's bridge of the nose, with the protruding part folded so the sensor elements are located under the nostrils.
