Introduction
RESP1 IMPEDANCE
Use the RESP1 to monitor the larger trans-thoracic and
PNEUMOGRAPH
trans-abdominal impedance changes that result from
respiration. Merely placing two electrodes across the area
of interest allows the RESP1 to monitor respiration not only
in humans, but also in a wide variety of animals.
The RESP1 induces a small and safe high-frequency
(30KHz) current to flow between the electrodes, and then
senses the resulting voltage across the same electrodes.
No balancing is required; the RESP1 output signal always
returns to the zero baseline.
The Model 1130 Pneumotrace Respiration Transducer may
be used instead of electrodes with the RESP1.

Summary of Contents for UFi RESP1

  • Page 1 Merely placing two electrodes across the area of interest allows the RESP1 to monitor respiration not only in humans, but also in a wide variety of animals. The RESP1 induces a small and safe high-frequency (30KHz) current to flow between the electrodes, and then senses the resulting voltage across the same electrodes.
  • Page 2 Meter • If RESP1 signal is too strong for recording device, • In normal operation, meter needle moves with you will need to attenuate RESP1 output. Contact each inspiration and expiration.
  • Page 3 Subject may now resume normal breathing; RESP1 operates as described for EEG or EKG electrodes. Using the RESP1/EF or RESP1/EKG Two variants of the RESP1 can output both respiration and non-clinical ECG signals: • The RESP1/EF separates the ECG signal from the respiration signal with a filter but does not amplify the ECG output.
  • Page 4 Warranty and repair RESP I specifications • All UFI instruments are warranted against defects in materials Impedance range 1 to 2000 ohms and workmanship to the original purchaser for a period of one • Respiration output level 1 to 5 volts year from the date of original purchase.
