FCE SeriesDigital Functional Capacity Evaluator

Specifi cation Sheet SS-FM-3007-0305March 2005 The CHATILLON
® FCE Series is ideal for functional capacity evaluations. This compact, easy-to-use force gauge is designed for physical medicine, oc-cupational medicine and sports medicine applications and general patient assessment in family, neurological and orthopedic practices. Simplicity was a key design criteria for both clinicians and technicians. Measurement accuracy is better than 0.25% full scale. A large, easy-to-read, high resolution dot matrix LCD display supports a variety of measurements including functional capacity based on a force or a time duration. The gauge also displays normal and peak readings, pass/fail results and statistics based on up to 10 stored results. Measurements are displayed in ozf, gf, lbf, kgf and N units. The display can be inverted and displayed results may be “hidden” from the patient during testing. The FCE gauge comes standard with carrying case, battery adapter/charger and NIST Certifi cate of Calibration with data. A variety of testing fi xtures are optionally available. The FCE has been designated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to be a Class II Medical Device.
