TPSP5-ADH

Sensor spots (temp). Temperature sensor spots allow temperature measurements in closed sample containers with contactless read-out through a transparent window (glass, acryl glass) with special adapters and optical fibers for fiber-optic meters from PyroScience. In combination with optical oxygen and pH sensor spots, they enable true temperature compensation of these sensors for precision measurements in closed incubations.

Self-adhesive technology. The spots are equipped with a self-adhesive glue on the backside of the spot for easy integration into transparent plastic or glass containers. This eliminates the use of glue, potential contamination of the spot and long waiting times between mounting and measurements. For information on adhesive properties, please refer to the technical note in the download tab. For measurement conditions where detachment of the spot can occur, it is advised to use the standard spots with SPGLUE.

TPFLOW

These flow-through cells (PU=4 pieces) have an integrated optical temperature sensor for contactless temperature measurements of aqueous samples pumped through the cell. The cell consists of a Luer-lock T-Connector with a removable optical temperature probe. The Luer-lock connectors allow direct connection of tubings with 3.2 or 4.8 mm inner diameter.

Needle-Type Optical Temperature Sensors

The new fiber-optic temperature sensors from PyroScience are based on an innovative technology utilizing temperature-sensing properties of luminescent indicators. The needle-type temperature minisensors feature unprecedented fast response times in liquids (down to <<1s) and gases combined with very high spatial resolution (down to ~200µm). Importantly, the temperature minisensors are fully compatible with the FireStingO2 meters and can be used for true temperature compensation of optical oxygen sensors from PyroScience.

The Needle-Type Temperature Minisensors are composed of a metal housing available as retractable (TPR430) or fixed (TPF1100) version and can be connected to any channel of the oxygen meter FireStingO2. The temperature minisensors can be applied for (fast) measurements in gases and aqueous liquids, being resistant to corrosive environments (e.g. seawater), as all metallic parts are made of stainless steel.

TPF1100. The sensor tip of the fixed needle-type temperature minisensor is glued into a straight-cut needle and protrudes ca. 2mm. Hence the fragile sensor tip is unprotected and the sensor needs to be handled with care, avoiding direct contact with hard surfaces.

TPR430. The fragile sensor tip of the retractable temperature minisensor is surrounded by a 40 mm long syringe needle and can be moved out of the needle with a unique 4-step sliding mechanism. When retracted into the needle, the sensor tip is fully protected while handling the sensor or while penetrating packages or a septa.
