To the right of the gold-plated measurement head shield is an
aluminium alloy heat sink coupled directly to a fan - part of the
electronic refrigeration system that maintains the condenser in
the measurement head at a precisely controlled temperature. The
extensive use of aluminium alloys in the construction of the measurement
head reduces the weight of the entire probe to a remarkably low
140gm, making it easy to handle in everyday use.
The above design features make for a strong and durable sensor
head, with a measurement geometry that does not deform with contact
pressure on the skin. The benefits are reliability and consistency
of performance from measurement to measurement, from operator to
operator and from instrument to instrument.
