The cap-ONE sensor is extremely light and compact, with a weight of 4 mg and a dead space of 0.5 mL with the infant airway adapter. Also, by using an anti-fogging membrane, neither a motor nor a heater is required. cap-ONE is highly durable, withstanding a drop test of 100 falls from a height of 2 m, a flex test of 5000 times with a 400 g load, and a water test with a 1 m submersion for 30 minutes (IPX-7).
No Calibration and No Warm-up
Nihon Kohden’s mainstream CO2 sensors have a dedicated airway adapters with a unique anti-fogging membrane and no heater. After connecting the CO2 sensor, you can start CO2 measurement in just 5 seconds with no calibration or warm-up time.
Though typical membranes on adapter cause formation of water drops, our technology provides a reliable CO2 waveform even under high humidity conditions because of the state of the art technology of the anti-fogging membrane.
Fast response with small lag time
The CO2 sensor kit can be exposed to the air and calibrated easily with the connected airway adapter.
