Product catalog summary
Overview: The FM-700 Aqueous Flare Meter by Kowa is a precise, non-invasive tool designed for measuring intraocular inflammation, particularly useful in managing uveitis. It employs laser flare photometry, the only objective method to measure active inflammation in the anterior chamber.
Key Features:
  • Combines a slit-lamp design with laser flare photometry for improved inflammation assessment.
  • Non-contact, painless measurement of aqueous flare.
  • Provides quantitative protein density measurement using laser light scattering.
  • Ideal for use in uveitis and research centers.
Measurement Principle: The FM-700 scans the anterior chamber with a laser beam, obtaining background signals (BG1 and BG2) and a flare signal (SIG). The flare value is calculated using the formula: SIG-(BG1+BG2)/2, represented as Photon Count (PC) per millisecond.
Specifications:
  • Microscope: Binocular stereoscopic with magnification options (7, 10, 16, 26, 40X).
  • Measurement Range: 1 to 500 photon counts/ms with ±5% accuracy.
  • Light Source: Halogen lamp for observation and laser diode for flare measurement.
  • Printer: Thermal line printer with automatic paper cutting.
  • Monitor: 4.3-inch TFT color LCD.
  • Interface: RS-232C.
  • Dimensions/Weight: 600 x 460 x 560 mm / 25 kg.
  • Power Supply: AC100 - 230V, 50/60Hz.
