The classification of the fat meter can be distinguished according to its measurement principle, application field and specific function.
1.Fat quick tester:
Principle: Estimate body fat percentage by measuring the skin fold thickness of a body part.
Application: Suitable for fitness, sports and other fields, rapid assessment of body fat content.
2.Crude fat analyzer:
Principle: According to the Soxhlet extraction principle, the fat content is determined by gravimetric method. The fat is dissolved by a specific organic solvent, and after repeated extraction, drying and weighing, the fat content is finally calculated.
Technical parameters: The measurement range usually covers grain, feed, oil and various fat products with oil content of 0.5% to 60%.
Application: In food, fat, feed and other industries, as the ideal equipment for determining fat.
3.Automatic fat analyzer:
Principle: Changes in bioelectrical impedance of human tissues are used to measure body fat content. Features: high degree of automation, easy operation, accurate results.
Application: Suitable for measuring body fat in hospitals, physical examination centers and other institutions.
4.Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometer (DEXA) :
Principle: X-ray technology is used to accurately measure the density and composition of bone and soft tissue, thus accurately measuring the percentage of body fat.
Features: High measurement accuracy, can distinguish bone, muscle and fat and other tissues. Application: Mainly used in clinical diagnosis and scientific research.
5.Underwater weighing method:
Principle:The body is weighed in water to calculate its volume and fat content by comparing changes in volume and water level.
Features: Simple operation, but affected by the water quality and the compatibility of the tester.
Application: Mainly used for body fat measurement in scientific research and special environment.
6.Optical measurement method:
Principle:Use a laser or a camera to scan the outline of the body and calculate the amount of body fat from the image data.
Features: Non-contact measurement, suitable for mass screening.
Application: Rapid body fat assessment in gyms, schools, etc.
