MAJOR PERFORMANCE FEATURES





  • Allows to make orientation-independent force measurements over full measurement range while maintaining compliance with tolerated error limits.
  • Provides automated test procedures complying with ISO 8612 testing regulations for applanation tonometers (determinations of both buckling forces at the midpoints of their travels and hysteresis).
  • Also allows to determine tonometers' buckling-force characteristic curves over their full travels.
  • The first rig to allow the testing of tonometers over the full prescribed temperature range of 15°C to 30°C.
  • Testing, including setup, takes only about 10 min.
  • No warm-up period required.
  • Outputs test reports to a file.
  • Calibration using standard weights allows to trace its calibration back to national standards.
  • The rig is portable, and thus may be used on-site e.g. at hospitals or ophthalmologists' offices.
  • Certification by German calibration authorities has been granted.
