Advanced ultrasonic sensors engineered to delivery patient safety
With off-the-shelf, semi-custom, and fully custom design options, Moog’s LifeGuard ultrasonic sensors offer optimal accuracy and sensitivity with maximum application flexibility.
LifeGuard Air Bubble Detectors
Extremely accurate and non-invasive ultrasonic air-in-line sensors that integrate application flexibility with proven, reliable performance.
Performance: Moog’s proprietary swept-frequency technology ensures sensor performance does not drift with temperature, age, or other conditions.
Safe: Detectors maintain precise sensitivity without calibration, resulting in maximum patient safety.
Flexible: Available in a variety of sizes and configurations to meet nearly any application requirements
Easy: All electronics are integrated into the sensor housing, ready to interface with your system.
Cost-effective: With off-the-shelf or semi-custom options, LifeGuard sensors are a cost-effective solution for your project.
Typical applications:
- Medical equipment
- Laboratory
- Pharmaceutical
- Food and beverage processing
- Industrial / automation
- Automotive industry
- Oil and gas production
- Energy
- Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) for defense applications
Additional features:
- ISO 13485:2003 quality service certification
- Integrated self-test function provides 100% single fault coverage
- Dry-couples to PVC, silicone and many other tubing types with thick, thin or reinforced walls
- Output pulse width is proportional to bubble size — allowing user’s system to monitor subcritical bubbles
- Chemically compatible with common medical grade cleaners
- Vibration resistant
- Wide temperature range stable
- High reliability: > 1 M hours MTBF
- Proven performance in life critical equipment
- Low power consumption
- RoHS compliant
