New member of OxiMax Family Meets with Success
Weighing one-half pound, the N-45 pulse oximeter features an artifact-reducing algorithm that combats the effects of patient motion and delivers highly accurate SpO2 and pulse-rate values, even during challenging monitoring conditions. The long battery life and small size make the oximeter ideal for quick assessments or short-term monitoring in intensive care units and general floor care environments, during in-hospital and ambulance transport, and during exercise studies. The N-45 oximeter is compatible with the entire family of OxiMax pulse oximetry sensor, which allows clinicians the power of condition-specific sensor technology in a portable pulse oximeter.

For more information about the N-45, contact Nellcor at 1-800-NELLCOR or visit its Web site at www.nellcor.com.

New LCR Meter Available from QuadTech
QuadTech Inc, Maynard, Mass, an electronic test-equipment manufacturer, announces the availability of its new LCR meter, the 1715 LCR Digibridge®. The meter was designed for benchtop use or automated testing on a wide variety of passive components and materials.

The 1715 will measure, display, and output the results of two parameters at a time, including capacitance; AC resistance; inductance; series or parallel; as well as dissipation factor; quality factor; impedance; phase angle; and reactance. The 1715 offers fast measure speed, programmable source impedance, zeroing correction, and remote interface connection. It has a user-friendly menu interface for easy setup and programming and allows the user to store the test setup in internal memory, ensuring that a test can be configured quickly and run the same way every time.
