The WSD-30B is a PID controller with a DC powered, low noise heating plate for animal research/testing. This allows researchers to maintain the animal's body at a specific temperature during signal recording. The output voltage of the controller is 12 VDC. This low voltage reduces the electric noise generated from the heating current. This controller uses a Pt1000 RTD sensor that offers higher sensitivity and precision. The shank of the probe has a 2.0 mm diameter. The tip has a 3.0 mm barb for holding the probe in the animal. It is suitable for both mice and rats. The heating pad is carefully grounded and shielded to eliminate any residual EMF interference when recording small signals. The heating pad also contains a precise sensor that limits the maximum surface temperature of the pad so that animals will not be burnt due to the hot surface. The setting for the maximum surface temperature limit can be adjusted and viewed by the users. It increases the flexibility of the system to fit different experiment requirements.
Two heating pads in different size are offered:
Option 1: Dimension: 250 x 150 mm (9.8 x 5.9"), rated as 36W/12VDC.
Option 2: Dimension: 140 x 80 mm (5.5 x 3.1"), rated as 24W/12VDC.
Option 250 x 150 mm on the bottom. Option 140 x 80 mm on the top.
