The Ohmic PUP-50 is a portable ultrasound power meter engineered for precise measurement of therapeutic ultrasound transducer output. Operating via radiation force balance methodology, it measures acoustic power delivered to a 45° air-backed cone target immersed in degassed water. The instrument delivers 4-digit LCD readout with ±50 mW resolution across a 0 to 30 W range, supporting transducer frequencies from 0.5 to 10 MHz. Compliant with AIUM, JCAHO, FDA, and NIST standards, the PUP-50 provides five-point NIST-traceable certification for biomedical and clinical validation workflows.
