37300 - I.R. Heat-Flux Radiometer
The Heat-Flux Radiometer Cat. 37300 has been designed to calibrate I.R. sources, in particular the Tail Flick and the Plantar Test, to make sure they deliver the same power flux (expressed in mW per square cm) and hence a nociceptive stimulus of the same intensity.Ensure that two or more Tail-Flick/Plantar Test units deliver thermal nociceptive stimuli of exactly the same intensity. Balance them, if necessary.

The standard package of this extremely useful accessory is complete with I.R. Probe, Digital Meter, Adaptors for Tail Flick and Plantar Test, all parts of this portable self-sufficient instrument neatly lodged in a sturdy plastic case with punched foam lining.
The 37300 Radiometer enables the experimenter to check (and adjust, if necessary) the I.R. emission. In fact the I.R. output of the Tail-Flick/Plantar Test may, over the course of one-two years, undergo to 2-3 % reduction, due to dust gathered on the optics, darkening of the I.R. bulb, accidental knocks, aging of components due to thermal cycles, etc. Moreover, if the bulb is replaced or the electronics serviced, output alteration of more significant magnitude, say, 8-10%, may take place.
Knowing the I.R. energy (1 mW for the duration of 1s corresponds to 1mJ) in absolute terms, is a useful datum to compare with any equal or different method/instrument described in the literature.
