Physical Medicine Use the Chatillon FCE to accurately measure and document musculoskeletal strength. Evaluate individual muscle groups in fl exion/extension, internal/external rotation, plantar fl exion, dorsi fl exion and abduction/adduction. Occupational Medicine Conduct job task analysis, ergonomic analysis and functional capacity testing with the Chatillon FCE. Measure actual push, pull or lift forces to determine job task requirements. Then quantitatively evalute the subject’s ability to perform those job tasks. Help ensure that a person is ready to assume work after an injury or test to ensure that an operation meets ADA compliance guidelines. Sports Medicine Objectively quantify an athlete’s musculoskeletal force output. Evaluate and document the effectiveness of the training regiment and track the athlete’s progress. Class II Medical Device The FCE has been classifi ed by the Food and Drug Administration to be a Class II Medical Device. Normal and Peak Modes When used as a force measurement instrument, the FCE will display peak tension and compression loads. When in peak modes, the maximum force exerted during a test is displayed and may be stored for statistical comparisons or output to an external device using serial data communications.

High & Low Load or Pass-Fail Limits The FCE Series may be confi gured with High and Low Load Limits or Pass-Fail Limits. Load limits allow you to establish setpoints for your testing. If the gauge exceeds a setpoint value, the gauge can provide a visual and audible alarm. You can also setup the gauge to operate as a pass-fail system. You can setup a pass-fail limit based on a limit range or on a nominal value with a % bandwidth. Based on your setup, the gauge will provide you with a Pass-Fail indication.
