PIAVET MEASURING DEVICE
Overview
The Piavet Measuring Device is covered with a soft-touch material that
allows for good grip even when wet, is UV-resistant, and can be cleaned
with all common cleaners and liquids.
Top side
On the top side of the Measuring Device,
there is a drop-shaped signalling light to
inform you about the status of the battery,
data recording and data transfer.
Bottom side
The bottom side of the Measuring Device
is the contact surface for the vital sign
measurements and has to be applied directly
onto the body (coat) of the horse by inserting
the Measuring Device into the Piavet Belt.
The sensor which measures the body core
temperature goes through the Measuring
Device with an open ending towards the top
side. Therefore, the top side of the Piavet
Measuring Device must never be covered to
enable precise temperature measurements.
