Description
The Renco lean meter is a pulsing ultrasonic apparatus that measures the thickness of the layers of fat in pigs in millimeters.
Characteristics Renco lean meter:
• Rechargeable battery
• Completely supplied with cable, probe, battery charger and a 25 mm test cube
Using the Renco lean meter:
• The lean-meter with a probe connected to a cable transmits ultrasonic waves that enter the animal’s body
• These vibrations are reflected by tissue surface of the animal
• The reflected waves are electronically processed to determine the bottom of the second layer of back fat
• The distance between the surface of the skin and the second layer is calculated and visualized digitally
