EBME Forums Forums Maintenance Technical Assistance Giraffe incubator humidity sensor failure

We have just started getting a bunch of humidity sensors on our Giraffes fail @ £300 a pop. The GE engineer has not seen this before & escalated it to the US, but I wondered if anyone else has experienced this?

We are a L3 NICU and use humidity a fair bit, but still...

... "but still" ... a gouge?

Thanks for making your first post, by the way.

Hehe, never. :P

We have 14 of these units the only major failures we have had has been the fan motors becoming noisy.

Hi all,
Has anyone come across the Neopod T made by westmed for transport humidification for neonates and pediatrics?

humidity sensor is at the forefront of the incubator. There is currently a temperature sensor. temporary solution, the sensor is removed and thoroughly cleaned isopropylene or alcohol or degreasing agent.
