Introducing INCU

TM

The INCU Incubator Analyzer is a portable device designed to verify the
proper operation and environment of infant incubators. This unit records
parameters important to the care of infants over time, such as airflow, sound
level, temperature (four individual measurement probes), and relative
humidity. Event markers can be placed on the recording to identify certain
activities or periods. The rechargeable battery allows the unit to be placed
within the incubator chamber for up to 24 hours without compromising the
integrity of the environment.

The INCU can operate stand-alone or with the use of a personal computer.
With a PC, the user selects the desired record time/interval via the software,
and then initiates the start of the test from the INCU. After completion of the
test, the user uploads the data collected by INCU into the PC software for
display and analysis. The user may store the recorded data in a file or print
the data to a report. In stand-alone mode, the unit displays all measured
parameters repeatedly in cycle fashion, and no data is recorded.

Portability:

Sits in place of the infant within the incubator.

Multiple Sensors:
