What Is the 989803163281 Compatible Temperature Adapter Cable?

The IPR Medical TA-PH-AD03 is a compatible aftermarket (not OEM) temperature adapter cable that replaces OEM part 989803163281. At 1.0 ft (0.3 m), or roughly 11.8 in, it is a short adapter intended for use with 400 Series temperature probes. Each adapter is reusable, and one comes in each bag.

Compatible Monitor Models

Check the Compatible Monitor Models table on the Specifications tab for every model this short adapter is listed for. Apart from the OEM’s own models, the list takes in two single entries from other brands: the Contec Patient Simulator MS400 and the Welch Allyn Propaq CS. If your model does not appear, contact IPR Medical before you order.

Design and Construction

With only 1.0 ft (0.3 m) of cable, the TA-PH-AD03 keeps the adapter section compact. It is designed for use with 400 Series probes and joins such a probe to the compatible equipment listed in the table. Clean the adapter between patients per facility protocol, and make sure both ends are intact before you reconnect it.

When to Replace Your Short Temperature Adapter Cable

Even a short adapter takes stress at both connectors, so inspect those areas closely. Replace it if a connector housing is cracked, if bent pins appear at the monitor end, or if the jacket has split where it meets a connector. Readings that drop out, freeze, or shift when the adapter is touched also call for a replacement; trying a second adapter on the same probe and monitor confirms the cause.

Cross Reference and Interchange Part Numbers

The OEM reference for this short adapter is part 989803163281, which it replaces. Its aftermarket counterparts are identified by brand and number on the Specifications tab, in the Cross Reference / Interchange Part Numbers table.
