Smart Sensor (SS) electrodes and transducers connect to the TEL100M-C amplifier/transmitter and can generally record biopotentials and other signals for up to 24 hours. The SS25 is an isometric dynamometer that measures a variety of gripping or pulling strengths for several muscle groups. The isometric design improves experiment repeatability and accuracy. The ergonomic soft handle design and simple calibration procedure make this device very easy to use. Hand grip strength is easily recorded in pounds or kilograms force.
Using the Dynagrips accessory, the pulling strength of single or multiple muscle groups can be measured. To measure arm, leg, torso or neck strength, mount the SS25 against a wall or floor and pull the free end directly (or redirect with a pulley). For in-depth studies of muscular activity, combine SS25 force recordings with EMG recordings.
The SS25 has a 3-meter cable terminated in a connector that interfaces with the DA100C general-purpose transducer amplifier.
Specifications mirror the TSD121C transducer.
