What type of sensor is used in pulse oximeter?
All pulse oximeters use red and infrared light to measure SpO2 levels. Nonin PureLight sensor technology uses high-quality LEDs and a calibrated receptor to eliminate interference from secondary frequencies.
How does SpO2 sensor work?
Pulse oximeter It does so by sending infrared light into capillaries in your finger, toe, or earlobe. Then it measures how much light is reflected off the gases. A reading indicates what percentage of your blood is saturated, known as the SpO2 level.
How many LED are used in pulse oximeter probe?
The pulse oximeter needs two different wavelengths to perform measurements. These wavelengths are generated using two Light Emitter Diodes (LEDs), a Red LED (660 nm,) and an Infra Red LED (940 nm).
