MICROFET 2 WIRELESS HANDHELD DYNAMOMETER FOR ACCURATE AND RELIABLE MUSCLE STRENGTH TESTING BY HOGGAN SCIENTIFIC

The MicroFET 2 Wireless Handheld Dynamometer by Hoggan Scientific is an advanced, digital tool for precise and reliable muscle strength testing. Compact enough to fit in the palm of your hand, this portable device is designed for Manual Muscle Testing (MMT), offering objective, quantifiable data that supports the diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of neuromuscular and musculoskeletal disorders. Its modern design is a refined adaptation of traditional manual muscle testing methods.

MicroFET 2 Specifications:

• Wireless Technology: Enables unrestricted movement during testing across all three planes of motion, with the portability to use it anywhere.
• Lightweight: Weighs less than a pound.
• Measurement Range: 0 to 300 lbs of force, with high threshold settings from 3.0 lbs to 300 lbs in 0.1 lb increments.
• LCD Display: Easy to read LCD screen shows peak force and elapsed time.
• Selectable Units of Measure: Pounds (lbs.), Newtons (N), or kilograms-force (kgf).
• Accuracy: Within 1% of the reading.
• Threshold Settings: Low threshold from 0.8 lbs to 300 lbs and high threshold from 3.0 lbs to 300 lbs, both adjustable in 0.1 lb increments.
