Blood Pressure Sensor

The Blood Pressure sensor consists of:

A pressure sensor with measurement range between 0 .. 375 mmHg
A standard adjustable blood pressure cuff (size: 24 cm to 35 cm)
A bulb pump with a control valve

The blood pressure cuff consists of an inflatable bladder connected by one hose to a hand pump bulb and by a second hose to the pressure sensor box. The user can set the rate of cuff deflation manually with the control valve.

Technical specifications:

Measurement range: 0 .. 375 mmHg
Resolution: 0.1 mmHg
Maximum measurement frequency: 100 kHz (CoachLab II+, WiLab) / 1 MHz (VinciLab 2)
Warranty: 3 years

All technical specifications of the sensor are descibed in the product manual, see downloads.

The following biology experiments can be performed with the Blood pressure sensor:

Measure blood pressure before and after exercise and while sitting or standing
Compare blood pressure after voluntary isometric contractions (weight lifting) and a rhythmic activity such as running or biking
Study the effect of caffeine on blood pressure.

The Blood Pressure sensor can be directly connected to the analog BT inputs of the CMA interfaces.

A ‘P4272-1K BT sensor cable, single’ is required to connect the sensor to the interface.
Please check whether you already have this cable in your stock.
