INTRODUCTION
Our
BP Recorders series 58000
have been conceived to provide an objective precise
recording of the systolic and diastolic pressure of rodents.
This new model, housed in an attractive cabinet of original design, is provided with:-
•
graphic
printer
•
graphic
display
•
serial port RS232C
•
analog output for direct connection to most digital recorders (as PowerLab) for
data acquisition and management
Its paramount features are:-
i)
a set of pulse transducers of superior performance
ii)
a reliable pressure generator which provides a very smooth (stepless) pres-
sure build-up
iii)
an analog and digital recording of all the phases of the experiment
The 58500 combines together three main systems
:-
1)
pressure generation-pressure monitoring system
2) pulse
amplifier
3) thermal-array
analog
&
digital recording unit
and two auxiliary systems
:-
4)
pulse rate measuring and recording
5)
microprocessor controlled functions of self diagnosis, calibration, signal filter-
ing, signal storage
