NEULOG SPIROMETER LOGGER SENSOR GUIDE
NeuLog spirometer logger sensor NUL-216
Part# NL-2160
The NeuLog spirometer sensor can be used for any science
experiment which is based on lung capacity such as in the fields of
Psychology, Biology, Exercise Science, etc.
The sensor comes pre-calibrated so you can start experimentation
right out of the box using this guide.
Among hundreds of possible experimental subjects that can be
studied with the NUL-216 sensor are: lung function, lung physiology,
exercise experiments, gas flow rates and gas flow laws, and many
more.
The spirometer sensor's measurement unit is:
Liters per second (L/s): The volume of gas which passes through the
sensor tube per second.
Reset to zero:
Even though the NeuLog spirometer sensor does not need to be
calibrated prior to each use, it is recommended to reset its probe.
To zero the sensor:
1. Connect the spirometer sensor to a voltage source (USB-200 or
BAT-200 module).
2. Press and hold the spirometer sensor’s push button for 3
seconds. You should see a zero reading on the sensor's module
box.
Using the spirometer sensor:
The NeuLog spirometer sensor comes with laminated paper for use.
Prior to experimentation, roll a single piece of laminated paper into a
tube and then place it inside the side with the wider internal opening
of the sensor. The paper should stick out from the metal sensor tube
about one inch. Blowing into the paper instead of directly into the
metal tube is more hygienic for later uses of the sensor.
Using the software’s “area” function, you can determine the total
volume of your lungs easily.
