The 1.7 mm diameter probe is 100 mm (4 in) long and has a 2 m (6 ft) long cable with plug for attachment to the control unit. It is suitable for a wide range of laboratory animals from adult mice to large dogs. The output of the temperature sensing probe is used by the control unit to proportionally control the DC supply to the blanket. This method of control alleviates the interference problems associated with that of non- proportional control, such as switching contacts, thus enabling the system to be used in conjunction with high-gain recording systems. The control temperature is adjusted using the rotary encoder and can be set between 20˚ and 50˚C (68˚ and 122˚F). The control temperature is continually shown in the main display alongside the actual temperature. The blanket consists of a highly flexible insulated heating element, which can be folded without risking internal damage. It is electrically floating, • NEW user interface with: with respect to ground however, one end of the heating element can be – Large graphical display grounded by a switch on the front panel of the control unit. The system – Menu driven user interface operates satisfactorily whether or not the blanket is grounded. Special circuitry eliminates electrical noise thus permitting sensitive recordings. – Rotary encoder and push buttons to make temperature selection clear and easy as well Blankets are available in three sizes and each comes with a 2 m (6 ft) as providing easy access to the menus and cable to attach to the control unit: settings • Small Blanket: Measures 15 x 20 cm (6 x 8 in) and is suitable for rodents • Set temperature displayed continually on screen • Medium Blanket: Measures 45 x 70 cm (18 x 27 in) and is suitable • Two modes now available: for rabbits and cats – Homeothermic control or • Large Blanket: Measures 60 x 90 cm (24 x 36 in) and is suitable for dogs – Stand alone digital thermometer Each system is supplied complete with control unit, flexible temperature • Audible & visual alarms user set for minimum probe, blanket and plastic cover for the blanket.

An operating table version is also available.

The complete system consists of a blanket (SeDaCom Software included) or a pad, a control unit and a temperature probe. Basically, the desired body temperature (32° to 45°C) is easily set by the Citations front panel of the control unit. The body temperature is controlled by the Pedersen M et al.
