REPLACEMENT OF SENSORS
Unisense will replace sensors that have been damaged during shipment
provided that:
• The sensors were tested immediately upon receipt in accordance with the
delivery note and the manual
• The seal is still intact.
• The sensors are returned to Unisense for inspection within two weeks.
• The sensors are correctly packed for return to Unisense, in accordance with
the note included in the sensor box.

OVERVIEW
With its stability, precision, and eminent spatial resolution, the MicroProfiling
System is an outstanding tool for microscale measurements for a variety of
applications.
The optimal choice of sensors and equipment depends on what kind of
experiment you want to perform.
You can perform manual or automated profiles. In manual profiles, the
micromanipulator is operated by hand. For increased accuracy and automatic
profiles, a motorized stage and motor controller can be used. This will increase
microsensor positioning precision, extend the travelling distance, facilitate
multiple automated profiles and free the scientist from the tedious manual
micromanipulator operation.
This manual gives an overview of the components of a Unisense profiling
measurement set-up and how to connect them. For details on each component,
please consult the individual manuals.

MICROSENSOR AMPLIFIERS
It takes a specialized high-quality amplifier to amplify the signal from a
microsensor.
Amperometric microsensors (e.g. O2, H2S, H2) require either a versatile amplifier
with adjustable polarization like the MultiChannel UniAmp fx-6 or fx-3 or a
picoammeter with preset polarization like the O2UniAmp.
Potentiometric microsensors (e.g. pH and Redox) require a high-impedance
millivoltmeter like the pH/Redox UniAmp or a MultiChannel UniAmp.
All Unisense amplifiers have an integrated A/D-converter unit, so they are
connected to the computer directly.
Please see separate manuals for more detailed instruction and specifications.

MANUAL MICROMANIPULATORS
A microsensor must be positioned in the measuring environment with
much more precision than is possible to achieve with an ordinary
laboratory stand. Therefore, Unisense supplies manual micromanipulators
with holders for one (MM33) or two sensors (MM33-2), which facilitate
reliable measurements and minimize the risk of breaking the microsensor.
Mounted on a suitable laboratory stand (e.g. the Unisense LS), the
micromanipulator provides a robust and precise tool for positioning
microsensors with a z-axis precision of 10 microns. The x- and y-axis can
be manipulated with a precision of 100 microns.
The MM33-2 offers the possibility for simultanous positioning of two
sensors. It allows for extremely fine adjustment of the two microsensor
tips relative to each other so that the two sensors measure practically at
the same point.

MOTORIZED SYSTEMS
For precision below 10 micron in the x-axis and for automated
measurements, the MM33 (or MM33-2) can be mounted on a
micromanipulator Motor Stage (MS-15), which is positioned via the PC
data acquisition and motor control software (SensorTrace Suite) and a
motor controller (MC-1, MC-2, or MC-3).
With multiple Motor Stages automated measurements can be performed
in 2D or 3D with extreme precision it all directions.
Motorized sensor positioning is superior to manual positioning due to
a higher level of precision, a longer operating distance, and ease of
operation. A motorized unit consists of a micromanipulator (MM33/
MM33-2) mounted on a mechanical Motor Stage (MS-15) via a small
adapter. The stage is controlled by PC software (SensorTrace Suite) via a
motor controller (MC-1, MC-2, or MC-3).
A manual positioning system can always be upgraded to a motorized
system. This requires a Motor Stage (MS-15) and a motor controller (MC-1,
MC-2, or MC-3).

Motor control button - functions
The Control Button on the motor housing (see picture right) has several
functions:
• Rotate up or down to move the Stage Plate up or down. The motor
speed increases with time, so short press for slow and precise
movement, long press for fast and long movement.
• Pushing the wheel in has two functions:
o Emergency stop if the motor is running.
o Making the light on the Motor Controller blink for the channel this
motor is connected to. This is useful to identify the X, Y, and Z axes in
2D and a 3D setup.
