Healthcare
IPITEK
fiber-optic temperature sensors are immune to the
effects of EMI and are ideally suited for healthcare
applications. Our unique optical thermometers are
ideal for many environments where non-metallic probes,
immunity to electromagnetic interference, zero volatility
risk, and/or inertness or sterility of the probe is
required.
Minimally Invasive Surgeries using Microwaves and
Radiofrequencies are currently the focus of many research
and clinical trials. Because of this, fiber optic
sensors and RF/MW equipment in healthcare get along
very well. With the X5-True Sensor and the embedded
LumiSmart connector, accuracy can get down under ±0.2°C
without the need for on-site calibration.
Typical applications
where X5 sensors are used:
-
Radio frequency
and microwave ablation of tumors
-
Hyperthermia treatment
in radiation oncology and chemotherapy
-
Benign prostatic
hyperplasia thermotherapy
-
Temperature monitoring
of patients under MRI conditions
-
Heat concerns with
imaging devices
-
Magnetic nanoparticles
in biomedicine
-
Medical research
in universities and laboratories
Oil & Gas
In
addition to having developed numerous temperature
sensors for the oil and gas industry, IPITEK
has provides telemetry and networking equipment for
sensor data and other communications applications.
Sparkproof and Intrinsically
Safe Sensing Solutions
Environments where volatile and flammable substances
can be present generally requires the use of intrinsically
safe equipment. IPITEK's line of X5 sensors is ideal
for monitoring temperature in this type of environment.
Made entirely of dielectric material, our line of
Standard and Custom sensors can accommodate a large
variety of applications, from monitoring of fuel line
temperatures, thermal management in storage of volatile
substances to explosive material. Fiber optic sensors
are the best way to conform to the most stringent
safety regulations.
Adverse and Corrosive Environments
The X5 system features an environmentally inert, nonconductive,
nonmetallic, miniature probe, making it ideal for
harsh operating conditions and other applications
where metal probes are useless. Since the probe itself
is inert to chemical and biological agents, it is
ideally suited to applications where a completely
non-reactive sensor is required or where other types
of sensors would malfunction or become damaged
Pump monitoring
Thermal conditions of mechanical assemblies can tell
you a lot on their integrity. In oil and gas field,
the use of fiber optic temperature sensors is just
the right smart choice. X5 sensors can measure wide
ranges of temperature, remain accurate and safe in
conditions frequently encountered in Oil and Gas industry.
Aerospace
Propulsion
Testing
In addition to being inert, intrinsically safe and
spark proof, fiber optic sensors do not generate heat
and are environmental inert. The X5 line can monitor
the temperature of a structure at critical locations
while propellant is being consumed.
High RF Fields
The LumiTherm X5 system is ideal for applications
where high levels of electromagnetic interference
(EMI), such as RF and microwave fields or high voltages,
are commonly encountered. Such conditions are present
in proximity to transmission antennas, high power
lines and in electrically-noisy environments.
