Digital hand dynamometer that fits in the palm of your hand
The wireless microFET® 2 digital handheld dynamometer is a precise, portable device for force measurement and testing (FET). It was specifically developed for , reliable, and quantifiable muscle testing and represents a modern advancement of proven manual muscle testing. The microFET® 2 supports the diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of neuromuscular disorders. Thanks to wireless technology, you can now enjoy the freedom of a cordless design and are no longer tied to a data-logging computer. No more cables!
This unique, compact dynamometer-style muscle strength meter is battery-powered, weighs less than a pound, and fits comfortably in the hand thanks to its ergonomic design. The microFET® 2 muscle strength meter is microprocessor-controlled and provides precise and reproducible muscle strength measurements.
microFET®2 Specifications:
- Measurement range: 0–300 lbs force
- Easy-to-read LCD displays show peak force and elapsed time
- Selectable units of measurement: Pounds (lbs.), Newton (N) or kilogram-force (kgf)
- Accuracy within 1 % of the measured value
- Two threshold settings for :
Low threshold – 0.8 lb to 300 lbs in 0.1 lb increments, and
High threshold – 3.0 lbs to 300 lbs in 0.1 lb increments - Stores up to 30 tests
- Uses rechargeable lithium-ion battery
- Automatic "sleep mode" after 3 minutes to extend battery life
Can be used as a standalone device or in conjunction with the clinic software package included with the unit or the FET data acquisition software package, which is available separately. The clinic software package is a user-friendly platform that provides protocols for and spinal range of motion. It collects data for patient tracking, analysis, and comparative statistics, and allows for the creation of both text-based and graphical reports.
The MicroFET2 MMT with the clinic software package includes 3 attachments (flat, curved, and with numeric sensors), an instruction manual, a calibration certificate, a USB-C cable, and a carrying case.
Note: Thanks to an update, all devices with serial numbers starting with 1R241W or higher offer the following new features:
- T2P (Time to Peak) – Measures the time it takes to reach peak power
- A (Average Force) – The average force recorded during the test
- AbP (Average Before Peak) – The average force leading up to the peak force
- AAP (Average After Peak) – Average force after the peak value
- rFd (Rate of Force Development) – the rate at which force increases
