QUICK START
The ultra-compact
Piccolo2
is a fiber-optic oxygen meter integrated
in a small USB stick housing for usage in the laboratory. The
Piccolo2
is compatible to a variety of optical oxygen sensors from
PyroScience
, like robust probes, dipping probes, or contactless
sensors (sensor spots, respiration vials, flow-through cells,
nanoprobes). The optimized optics of the
Piccolo2
enable
contactless oxygen measurements up to a window thickness of
20mm (sensor spots) and microfluidic applications (nanoprobes).
Simply plug the
Piccolo2
into an USB port of your Windows PC,
laptop or tablet, connect the sensor of your choice and start
measuring with the comfortable logging software "
Pyro Oxygen
Logger
", which is available as a free download.
Multichannel systems are realizable by operating several
Piccolo2
in
parallel e.g. with an USB hub.
IMPORTANT
: Do
not
connect the
Piccolo2
to your PC before the
Pyro Oxygen Logger
software has been installed! The software will
install automatically the appropriate USB-drivers.
SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
: PC, laptop or tablet with Windows 7 / 8
/ 10 (but not Windows RT), min. 700MB free drive space, free USB
port.
IMPORTANT:
The
Piccolo2
is intended for oxygen measurements at
constant temperature!
Uncompensated temperature variation
affects the oxygen sensor reading!
