Spirometry Pressure Sensor: SP160
The SP Series is based on our NimbleSense architecture, which has an extremely low noise floor resulting in the industry’s highest levels of accuracy and lowest error rates. Our Multi-Range technology enables each device to support up to 4 calibrated pressure ranges. Further, the SP Series has lightning-fast warm-up and response times, along with extremely low power consumption.
The SP160 supports pressure ranges from ±5 kPa to ±40 kPa
Superior Sensor has optimized the SP Series of differential pressure sensors for spirometry and FOT (forced oscillation technique). This product family addresses the performance requirements with a highly unique and differentiated offering:
• Improved auto-zero performance using the proprietary Z-Track algorithm to maintain minimal zero point deviation – Virtually eliminating the impact of zero drift.
• Positionally insensitive devices – Maintaining consistent and highly accurate handheld readings regardless of physical orientation of the spirometer.
• Sensor accuracy, total error band and short-term zero stability are the best in class – ensuring consistently precise Spirometry measurements, yielding faster and more accurate patient diagnosis.
• Warm-up time is essentially eliminated – Excellent choice for time critical applications.
• Low power consumption – compatible with leading handheld requirements.
