The Novametrix Adult Soft Tip SpO2 Sensor 1.0m is a new, reusable pulse oximetry finger sensor built to the Dixtal 9168-00 reference specifications for monitors using Novametrix SpO2 technology. It has a soft silicone finger boot, a 1.0 m (3.3 ft) cable and a 9-pin connector, and it works with Novametrix 512, 513, 715 and MARS oximeters, Respironics 920 series, Healthdyne Tidal Wave Sp and Generra 710 monitors for adult oxygen saturation and pulse rate monitoring.
Key Benefits of This Novametrix Soft Tip Pulse Oximeter Sensor
- Comfort for longer monitoring: The soft silicone tip surrounds the finger without spring pressure, which suits extended spot-check or continuous use.
- Reusable and economical: One sensor can be cleaned and reused across many patients, lowering cost per use versus single-patient adhesive sensors.
- Direct connection: The 9-pin plug connects to Novametrix-technology SpO2 inputs with no adapter cable required on the listed models.
- Short, tidy cable: The 1.0 m lead is convenient for handheld and bedside oximeters where a long cable gets in the way.
- 12-month warranty
