TM286 AutoTymp Tympanometer & Audiometer

On-Site Training Included!



The Welch Allyn TM 286 AutoTymp® provides flexible screening for tympanometry, acoustic reflex measurements and audiometry to meet your testing needs today and in the future.



The TM 286 AutoTymp is lightweight and portable. It is designed to make detection and documentation of middle ear pathologies fast and accurate.







Features and Benefits

• Tympanometry, ipsilateral acoustic reflex testing, and manual or automated audiometry packaged in a single, user-friendly device
• Multi-function capability enables management of ear health through detection and documentation of otitis media, perforated tympanic membrane, patent tympanostomy tube, ossicular disruption, tympanos
• The tympanograms and the following summary information are clearly shown on the crisp LCD once the test is complete.
• LEDs on the probe guide the tester through the test sequence. All test results can be printed on the internal printer.
• The ASHA normal box can be shown as a guide on the display and printouts, if desired.
• A hand-held probe is provided with versions providing 226 Hz only measurements.
