SMT optical sensor provides accurate oxygen level detection

TE Connectivity’s EPM-5001 series SMT optical detector assembly provides leading accuracy in oxygen level detection. This detector assembly, available now from RS Components, employs a silicon planar diffused photodiode specifically designed for medical applications. The detector assembly is spectrally matched to emitter assemblies ELM-5001 and ELM-5002.

The company has designed SMT sensors with best-in-class flexibility to accommodate multiple wavelength options. The sensors are ideal applications that require high degrees of precision, durability and performance.

Typical applications include pulse oximetry, SpO2 finger/ear reusable probes, and SpO2 disposable strip or butterfly probes.
