CorTemp Core Body Temperature Monitor DAY: $70.00 WEEK: $ MONTH: $ CorTemp Ingestible Core Body Temperature Sensor Sensors are for single use and ordered separately part # HT (please call for pricing) CorTemp Data Recorder The data recorder detects the signal from the CorTemp sensor, then displays and stores the data in memory. The unit can be preprogrammed manually or via the CorTrack II software. A clinician can easily transfer the recorder s data directly to a PC platform where the data can be read into Excel or similar spreadsheet program for analysis. The data recorder will monitor up to 99 different CorTemp sensors and can be either worn by a subject for continuous monitoring or can be used to take random, manual readings of multiple subjects in a field or laboratory setting. Polar Heart Rate is an optional feature available on the CorTemp data recorder. How CorTemp sensor works The silicone coated sensor contains a micro battery, quartz crystal, communication coil and circuit board, all encapsulated in medical grade epoxy. Once ingested, the crystal sensor vibrates at a frequency relative to the body s internal temperature, produces a magnetic flux and transmits a lowfrequency signal harmlessly through the body. The sensor passes through the body at the subject s normal rate of motility which can vary anywhere from hours. Monitoring can be extended by administering another sensor after the initial pill has passed. The CorTemp sensor is accurate to ± 0.1 C and is FDA cleared and registered as a single use device. for CorTemp Ingestible Thermometer Pill Size: L 0.88 (22.352mm) approx. Dia (10.9mm) approx.

26 Quantifit OHD Respirator Face Fit Testing Controlled Negative Pressure technology was accepted by OSHA in 1998, and has quickly been adopted by industry to be the quickest and most accurate way to perform respirator fit testing the gold standard in respirator fit testing. Technology During a fit test, the respirator inlets are capped with test adapters, and the inhalation valves are removed from the mask. With the test worker holding his or her breath for no more than ten seconds, the Quantifit then establishes and maintains a slight vacuum,or controlled negativepressure, inside the mask. Since the respirator inlets are sealed, all sources of leakage into the mask are through the face-to-facepiece seal. The volume of air drawn out of the mask by the Quantifit during this short period of time is equal to the leak rate into the mask through the face-to-facepiece seal. It s that simple.

41 What is a Photoionization Detector (PID)? What Does a PID Detect? A PID measures all compounds whose ionization energy (IE) is less than the energy of the lamp photons (see figure at right). RAE Systems offers 9.8, 10.6, and 11.7 ev lamps. Broadband Toxic Compound Monitoring in the Workplace Until recently, the only low-cost way to get a Go or No Go reading for toxic VOCs was through the use of broadband toxic sensor such as MOS (metal oxide semiconductor) or lower explosive limit (LEL) sensors. These are not sensitive enough to provide accurate warnings of most toxic vapors until the permissible exposure levels are greatly exceeded. For example, benzene s permissible exposure limit is 1 ppm, due to its highly carcinogenic nature. PIDs can easily measure down to 0.1 ppm benzene, while MOS and LEL sensors are best used above 100 ppm and cannot detect these low levels. Advantages of a PID Very sensitive low ppm readings measured with confidence. Instantaneous display, updated every second, for real-time monitoring of toxic chemicals. Threshold monitoring visible and audible alarms in real time for STEL (short-term exposure limit), TWA (time-weighted average), and Peak. Alarm signals vary for each condition. Datalog for compliance and work shift trend analysis. Fast, simple calibration with isobutylene. A large table of correction factors is available, alleviating the need to purchase many calibration gases. Protection Vs. Detection PIDs have traditionally been considered detection instruments, particularly well suited for use by first responders and entry teams to determine the extent of a spill or airborne emission. RAE Systems PIDs are protection monitors, quantifying chemical concentrations and alerting workers to hazardous conditions. Other applications include PID ppm and ppb monitoring for combustible gases such as jet fuel, gasoline, and solvents. A PID, short for photoionization detector, is a broadband sensor that responds to a large variety of organic and some inorganic compounds. The general class of compounds suitable for detection is volatile organic compounds (VOCs) or hydrocarbons (HC). Because of their sensitivity and fast response at extremely low concentrations of compounds (parts per billion), PIDs protect workers not only from gases immediately dangerous to life, but also from toxic vapors that have long-term health effects. Other methods such as colorimetric tubes provide only a snapshot of the concentration and no real-time alarm, unless the sample happens to be taken at the exact time of the peak occurrence. RAE Systems PID monitors provide ongoing detection and instantaneous alarms to indicate when exposure limits have been exceeded for a wide range of chemicals. When limits are exceeded, the datalogging feature of RAE Systems monitors allows the individual to store, recall, and see exactly when the levels were a problem, whereas a tube cannot indicate when a level was exceeded or whether it happened all at one time or over the course of a worker s shift. Data from RAE Systems monitors can be instantly accessed from a personal computer. An individual can be asked what happened to create a situation in How Does a PID Work? Continuous Monitoring Alarms When Permissible Exposure Levels are Exceeded which exposure limits were exceeded while the individual can still recollect what happened. The answer could be as simple as cleaning with solvents or the failure of a ventilator. Therefore, with fast-acting PIDs, instantaneous alarms and datalogging, RAE Systems monitors allow safety action to be taken immediately. Other methods, such as activated charcoal sampling, can take days or weeks to get results back from a lab. Measuring a Witches Brew of Chemicals for a Particular Toxic PIDs can be used to measure a highly toxic component of a complex mixture if its percentage in the mixture is known. For example, if a gasoline contains 1% benzene and the broadband PID reading for the entire gasoline mixture is below 50 ppm, then benzene is below its Permissible Exposure Limit (PEL) of 0.5 ppm.
