Frequently asked questions
Is the ADC Tuning Fork suitable for bone conduction tests?
Yes, the ADC Tuning Fork is designed with an extra-long, smooth aluminum handle specifically for bone conduction tests. The handle is 2 inches long, facilitating ease of use.
What accurate frequencies are available?
The ADC Tuning Fork is a precision instrument available in six distinct and highly accurate frequencies, ensuring suitability for comprehensive auditory and neurological testing.
These forks are constructed from durable, corrosion-resistant aluminum alloy and are significantly lighter (weighing one-third less) than comparable steel models.
The precise frequencies offered are:
- 128 Hz
- 256 Hz
- 512 Hz
- 1024 Hz
- 2048 Hz
- 4096 Hz
Each tuning fork also features an extra-long, 2-inch turned smooth aluminum handle, optimized specifically for reliable bone conduction tests.
Are fixed weights an option for certain frequencies?
Yes, fixed weights are an available option for the ADC Tuning Fork. They are specifically available for the 128 Hz and 256 Hz frequencies.
What medical applications does this tuning fork support?
The ADC Tuning Fork is a high-quality diagnostic instrument intended for use by healthcare professionals. It is particularly useful for clinical or educational settings where precise frequency output is required.
The primary medical applications this tuning fork supports are:
- Neurological Examinations: Ideal for evaluating vibratory sensation and assessing peripheral nerve function.
- Auditory Assessment: Used for basic audiology and hearing acuity tests, leveraging its accurate frequency range (128 Hz to 4096 Hz).
- Specialized Bone Conduction Testing: The fork features an extra-long, 2-inch smooth aluminum handle, specifically designed to enhance usability and comfort during bone conduction procedures.
Is the ADC tuning fork made of corrosion-resistant aluminum?
Yes, the ADC Tuning Fork is constructed from a high-quality, corrosion-resistant aluminum alloy.
This superior material ensures durability and offers significant advantages for clinical use:
- Lightweight: The aluminum design makes it weigh only about one-third of comparable steel tuning forks, enhancing portability and comfort.
- Precision: It is precision-machined from 3/8” x 1” bar stock to guarantee consistent frequency accuracy across its six available configurations (128 Hz to 4096 Hz).
- Non-Magnetic: The aluminum alloy is inherently non-magnetic, making it suitable for various clinical environments.
Does this tuning fork offer accurate frequency responses?
Yes, the ADC Tuning Fork is designed to provide accurate frequency responses across a broad range, from 128 Hz to 4096 Hz. This precision is crucial for reliable medical diagnostic tests. Its construction from corrosion-resistant aluminum alloy contributes to its consistent and dependable performance.
Is the ADC Tuning Fork lightweight?
Yes, the ADC Tuning Fork is specifically designed to be lightweight for ease of use during neurological testing. It is constructed from a high-quality, corrosion-resistant aluminum alloy.
This superior construction makes the fork significantly lighter—weighing only one-third (1/3) of comparable steel tuning forks—which greatly enhances user comfort and portability.
Does the ADC Tuning Fork have non-magnetic construction?
Yes, the ADC Tuning Fork is specifically designed to be non-magnetic.
It is constructed from a high-quality, corrosion-resistant aluminum alloy bar stock. This material choice ensures consistent frequency accuracy, durability, and reliable performance in clinical settings.
