How DuraShock Technology Works

In traditional aneroid sphygmomanometer design, several delicate gears and springs convert and amplify vertical movement of the pinion to rotational movement to turn the pointer. The DuraShock gear-free design, however, uses a superior single helix spring to directly convert the vertical movement of the pinion to rotation of the pointer without the use of a multi-step gear arrangement.

By creating a gear-free design, Welch Allyn products with DuraShock technology have fewer moving parts, providing a gauge that is shock resistant and lighter than traditional gauges. Until now, a dropped sphygmomanometer required recalibration or replacement. The DuraShock gauges in the Bronze, Silver, and Gold lines can fall 30 inches onto a hard surface and still remain accurate. The DuraShock gauges in the Platinum line can fall 60 inches onto a hard surface and still remain accurate.
