Checking pregnancy in a couple hundred head of cattle out in a field is exactly what this thing is for, it basically saves you from hauling a heavy cart or wrestling with a wall-powered unit.
What it does is give you clear enough imaging to see an embryo at roughly 30-35 days, and the battery lasts over 6 hours so you won't get cut short in teh middle of a big batch.
Standerd probe is a 6.5MHz linear, which works fine for the transrectal work on cows and mares—you get 8 levels of magnification form 0.8x to 3.0x, and the display modes cover B, 2B, 4B, B/M, and M, all on a 5.7" LED that's actually readable in direct sun.
It stores 100 still frames permanently and has a 256-frame cine loop, so you can scroll back through the last few seconds of real-time imaging, and the weight is only 1.1kg—hanging it from your chest strap is pretty comfortable for a full day.
Lead time is usually 2-3 weeks, but we keep some stock for rush orders (confirm before paying), and the splash-proof housing means you can wipe it down with disinfectant without worrying about the ports.
Not great for tiny animals like cats or pocket pets at that probe frequency, and back fat analysis measurement is a nice extra for swine work but the real money use is just quick pregnancy checks.
The MOQ is 10 units for the RKU10. We can discuss smaller orders if you're just trialing it.
Yes, we supply CE and FDA registration documents, plus a certificate of analysis for each unit. Just let us know what your local vet authority requires.
Standard lead time is 15-20 working days after order confirmation. If you need it faster, we can prioritize for a small rush fee.
Absolutely. It includes back fat analysis as a standard measurement function, so you can use it for both pregnancy checks and body condition scoring in pigs.
Keep it in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight. The splash-proof design helps, but we recommend the included carrying case to avoid dust buildup.
