The HOGGAN wireless ergoFET™ 500 is a digital universal force gauge that empowers ergonomic, engineering, and safety professionals to objectively measure and quantify human and product performance. This capability yields improved product functionality, quality, and manufacturing efficiency, while reducing costs associated with cycle time and repetitive motion injuries. The wireless ergoFET™ 500 is excellent for job site and ergonomic analysis, NIOSH (The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health) whole body or job specific static strength testing, or for any force measurement at the job site.
The wireless enabled ergoFET™ 500 eliminates cables, cords, and wires. The ergoFET™ 500 force gauge is a cost-effective, durable, and easy to use push and pull force gauge designed for a wide variety of force measurement applications. It measures peak force and timed 3-second average force when required. With two operating test modes, and four selectable threshold settings, the ergoFET™ 500 is a highly versatile force gauge for any industrial measurement application. Available FET Data Collection software is compatible with Windows operating systems XP or newer.
ergoFET™ 500 Specifications:

CA Residents Prop 65
WARNING: CANCER & REPRODUCTIVE HARM; PROP 65 WARNING INFO
Proposition 65 requires businesses to provide warnings to Californians about significant exposures to chemicals that cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. These chemicals can be in the products that Californians purchase, in their homes or workplaces, or th??at are released into the environment. By requiring that this information be provided, Proposition 65 enables Californians to make informed decisions about their exposures to these chemicals.
Are any businesses exempt from Proposition 65’s requirements?
YES. Businesses with less than 10 employees and government agencies are exempt from Proposition 65’s warning requirements and prohibition on discharges into drinking water sources. Tartan Group is exempt from Proposition 65 requirements as our business has fewer than 10 employees, however, we feel that it is important to warn CA residents of the possibility that some of our products may contain chemicals that cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.
More Specific Information about Businesses and Proposition 65:

Proposition 65 also prohibits California businesses from knowingly discharging significant amounts of listed chemicals into sources of drinking water.
Proposition 65 requires California to publish a list of chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. This list, which must be updated at least once a year, has grown to include approximately 900 chemicals since it was first published in 1987.
Proposition 65 became law in November 1986, when California voters approved it by a 63-37 percent margin. The official name of Proposition 65 is the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986.
