The KX9013 2m duplex blood bag air probe is a duplex probe with a blood bag (penetration) probe on channel one and a damped air probe on channel two. Fitted with a 6-pin lumberg connector with locking screw, to provide a strong and secure probe-to-instrument connection with better prevention of liquid ingress. Designed so that one probe measures a core temperature by being placed inside a receptacle that simulates a dummy load, whilst the second probe is designed for you to measure the air temperature. For example, in a blood laboratory, the regulatory authorities stipulate that the ‘issue fridge’ or freezer being monitored, has to have an air and core measurement, so that it can be proved that the blood products being provided, are within the permitted range as set out in the guidelines. Issuing a blood product to a patient that has not been stored correctly, could have serious implications. The KX9013 has a wide range of applications beyond the blood laboratory and has been implemented within the life sciences sector, to measure the temperature of simulated product growth in incubators and warming cabinets.
