Chatillon® K-DFE Series
Digital Force Gauge for Functional Evaluations

The Chatillon® K-DFE Series is ideal for functional capacity evaluations. This compact, easy-to-use force gauge is features a load averaging function ideal for job task analysis and functional capacity evaluations. Averaging can be based on a load setpoint with hold time. Simplicity was a key design criteria for both clinicians and technicians. Measurement accuracy is better than 0.1% full scale. A large, easy-to-read, high resolution dot matrix LCD display is easy to read. The gauge 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. Digital output (RS232) is standard. Gauge is supplied with Certificate of Calibration.

The use of a digital force gauge may be regulated for use by respective regional health agencies. Please check with your local health agencies for applicability or restrictions.
