Models of the FUTREX Body Composition Analyzer

There are three models available for estimating percent body fat in humans:

•FUTREX-5500/XL

Estimates the percent body fat of Adults only (ages 18-80)

•FUTREX-5500A/ZL

Estimates the percent body fat of:

1.) Adults

2.) Adolescent Children (13-17)

3.) Pre-Adolescent Children (5-12)

When age is entered, the FUTREX-5500A/ZL automatically sets the instrument to the proper calibration (e.g. if you entered the subject’s age as 14 during the Body Fat Measurement Sequence (page 7), the FUTREX-5500A/ZL will use its Adolescent calibration to determine percent body fat).

•FUTREX-5500A/WL

Includes a special calibration for high school aged athletes (13-23) as well as all features of the FUTREX-5000A/ZL

CAUTION: This Manual is only for use with the FUTREX-5500A/WL
