Features of the TS-E4-MC Ear Clip Pulse Oximeter Sensor
Lightweight Spring Ear Clip
The compact spring-loaded clip holds the LED emitter and photodetector in alignment on either side of the adult earlobe, giving a secure fit without adhesive.
Keyed 9-Pin TruSignal Connector
The grey moulded connector with 9 gold-plated pins and side locking tabs plugs directly into Datex-Ohmeda TruSat monitors for a firm, repeatable connection.
Flexible 3.0 m Cable
A soft, light-grey cable resists tangling, tolerates frequent wipe-down cleaning and gives extra reach from monitor to patient.

Use Cases for a Reusable Adult Ear SpO2 Sensor
- Patients with poor peripheral perfusion or cold fingers
- Operating theatres, anaesthesia and recovery (PACU)
- Emergency departments and bedside ward monitoring
- Exercise, stress testing and sleep assessment where hands must stay free
- Biomedical engineering spares and replacement stock
Application and Care
- Clip the sensor to the fleshy part of the earlobe; remove earrings and rub the lobe gently to improve perfusion.
- Check and reposition the site regularly during long monitoring periods.
- Wipe the clip and cable with a mild hospital-grade disinfectant or 70% isopropyl alcohol between patients.
- Do not immerse the sensor or connector in liquid, and do not autoclave.
- Inspect before each use and replace if the clip, optical window or cable is damaged.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the GE TS-E4-MC SpO2 sensor?
TS-E4-MC is the GE Healthcare reference for a reusable adult ear clip TruSignal SpO2 sensor. This sensor is built to that reference, with a 3.0 m cable and 9-pin connector.
Which monitors does this ear clip sensor work with?
It is listed for Datex-Ohmeda TruSat, TruSat ED and TruSat TD pulse oximeters that use TruSignal technology.
Is TS-E4-MC the same as OXY-E4-MC?
Yes. OXY-E4-MC is the Datex Ohmeda cross-reference for the same adult ear sensor style. Unimed U910-60 and Praymed PSG0127-L are further matching references.
When should I choose an ear clip sensor instead of a finger sensor?
An ear sensor is useful when finger readings are unreliable or impractical, for example with cold hands, low perfusion, hand injuries, or when the patient needs both hands free.
How long is the cable?
The cable is 3.0 m (9.8 ft) from connector to ear clip.
Is the sensor reusable and new?
Yes. It is a reusable sensor supplied brand new, individually bagged, with a 12-month warranty.
