E-mitter telemetry implants

Code G2 E-mitter

E-Mitters are small, wireless, battery-free telemetry implants for use with mice and rats. They measure body temperature, gross motor activity, heart rate. E-Mitters are powered by capturing energy from electrical fields generated by the ER-4000 Energizer-Receiver.

Features

E-Mitters do not require any refurbishments or calibration during their 2-year lifespan. The E-Mitter Telemetry System is perfect for any short or long-term studies.

E-Mitters are powered by capturing energy from electrical fields generated by the ER-4000 Energizer/Receiver. This allows the E-Mitter to operate without a battery and remain implanted indefinitely or to be reused in multiple animals over its 2-year functional lifespan.

Wireless – no tether

With no wires, you don’t have to worry about tethers, exit site infections, or other hard-wired problems.

No batteries

E-Mitters are powered by the ER-4000 Energizer/Receiver that conveniently fits under most standard lab cages. This means no downtime or recurring costs for battery refurbishment or recalibration.

Low cost and long-term monitoring up to 2 years

As E-Mitters require no batteries and have a 2-year lifespan they can be reused over and over for short-term studies or implanted indefinitely for long-term studies.

No refurbishing, no recalibration

E-mitter model descripions

G2 E-mitter

The G2 E-Mitter is the smallest E-Mitter we offer and measures 15.5mm x 6.5mm. Because of its small size, it is useful for measuring core body temperature and gross motor activity in mice.

Size : 15.5 x 6.5
Weight (g) : 1.1
Volume(cc) : 0.5

 

G2 HR E-mitter

At 19.5 x 6.5mm, the G2 HR E-Mitter has the ability to monitor heart rate, core body temperature and gross motor activity in mice and rats ranging from 25 to 250 grams.

Size : 19.5 x 6.5
Weight (g) : 1.5
Volume(cc) : 0.8

 

PTD 4000 E-mitter

The PDT 4000 E-Mitter dimensions are 23mm x 8mm and will provide core body temperature and gross motor activity in rats with a weight range of 250 – 900 grams.

Size : 23 x 8
Weight (g) : 1.6
Volume(cc) : 1.1

 

PDT 4000 HR E-mitter

The PDT 4000 HR E-Mitter dimensions are 26mm x 8mm. This transponder allows you to measures heart rate, core body temperature and gross motor activity in rats with a weight range of 250 – 900 grams.

Size : 26 x 8
Weight (g) : 2.2
Volume(cc) : 1.2
