Samba Preclin for MRI - 5 cm
This Micro Pressure Transducer from fits the MPMS100A-1/MPMS100A-2 Micro Pressure Measurement System control unit. The Samba Preclin transducer is very stable, has a low temperature coefficient, and is easy to use. The optical transducer is biocompatible and has intrinsic electrical isolation. The micro dimensions of the transducer tip ensure a well-defined measurement location and minimal influence on the measurement environment. The transducer consists of a silicon sensor element, 0.42 mm in diameter, bonded to an optical fiber 0.25 mm to 0.40 mm diameter.

Each transducer is delivered calibrated to minimize the need for customer calibration. This simplifies the use of the system and reduces the risk of human errors.
