S216 Hand Dynamometer.

Qubit Systems’ provides strain-gage based isometric S216 Hand Dynamometer.  This instrument is designed for measurements of grip strength, pinch strength and to perform muscle fatigue studies.  It can be used with the C610 LabQuest Mini data interface and C901 Logger Pro software in a variety of experiments, and may be combined with other sensors such as the Q-S207 EKG/EMG sensor and Q-S222 GSR sensor for comprehensive studies of muscle activity.

The S216 Hand Dynamometer is factory calibrated in Newtons (N)  kilograms (Kg) or punds (lb) of force. The sensor amplifies the force applied converting it into voltage that is monitored by the data interface and read in the desired units of force in the software.  To measures grip strength  hold the sensor in a vertical position with arm perpendicular to the body and fingers on the pad.  Both, relative strength of the left and right hand and muscle fatigue and endurance can be measured. To measure the pinch strength (finger strength) place the fingers on the pinch senor pads in a vertical alignment.  Its sensitivity ensures that all subjects may obtain excellent signals, and may participate in the full complement of studies.
