Overview

The first multi- parameter, self-contained incubator performance analyzer.
The INCU, Incubator Analyzer, is a portable device designed to verify the proper operation and environment of infant incubators. This unit records parameters important to the care of infants such as airflow, sound level, temperature (four individual measurement probes), and relative humidity. Event markers can be placed on the recording to identify certain activities or periods. The rechargeable battery allows the unit to be placed within the incubator chamber for up to 24 hours.

The INCU can operate stand-alone or with the use of a personal computer. With a PC, the user selects the desired record time/interval via the software, and then initiates the start of the test from the INCU. After completion of the test, the user uploads the data collected by INCU into the PC software for display and analysis. The user may store the recorded data in a file or print the data to a report. In stand-alone mode, the unit displays all measured parameters repeatedly in cycle fashion, and no data is recorded.

This device is the first of its kind that combines all the parameters required by AAMI and IEC to properly evaluate closed incubators or open warmers.

INCU can save testing time by allowing you to complete another task while it is running its user-programmed test cycle. Just set it up, place it in the incubator, and go on to your next task. Upon completion of the test cycle, retrieve the INCU, connect it to your PC or laptop, and view the results. Results can be printed or saved to a file.


INCU, from Fluke Biomedical Corporation, analyzes the thermal environment while simultaneously measuring humidity, noise level, oxygen concentration, and airflow. The results can be graphically viewed, printed, and saved to file using the PC or laptop software, which is included with the unit.
