The Harpenden Neonatometer has a framework built of light alloy with a white hammer finish. This is the unit to choose if the clinic type precision of the Infant Measuring Table or Infantometer is required in an instrument which can measure new born babies. The ball bearing mounted carriage has an extremely free movement and is operated via a constant pressure lever that automatically locks the carriage at the correct measuring point. This mechanism ensures reproducibility of measurement and effectively eliminates variations due to differing operator techniques. Each unit is supplied complete with a spare digit counter.

We can supply this neonatometer in two standard lengths; the 'long' model is suitable for general use, and the 'short' model is particularly suitable for premature babies since it will fit into most incubators.
