MicroTymp2 – Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Welch Allyn MicroTymp2 Portable Tympan-
ometric Instrument.
The Welch Allyn MicroTymp2 provides portable tympanometry which is
automatic, easy to use, and offers the following features:
• Measures middle ear function in as little as one second
• Displays results as they happen
• Stores data from two ears before printing
• Prints out hardcopy automatically or on demand in five seconds
With MicroTymp2 tympanometry, objective, printed documentation of otitis
media with effusion and other middle ear disorders is quickly and easily
obtained. This results in more thorough diagnoses, and more effective
monitoring, treatment, parent consultation, and referrals.
Data stored in the memory of the MicroTymp2 Handle may be printed using
the Printer/Charger. The Printer/Charger reads the information from the
Handle and quietly prints out tympanograms from two ears with test results
in five seconds.
The MicroTymp2 Printer/Charger also charges the rechargeable battery in
the MicroTymp2 Handle.
This manual describes how to operate and maintain the MicroTymp2 Handle
and Printer/Charger. Please follow these instructions to ensure many years
of accurate and reliable service. For additional information on the science of
tympanometry, refer to “A Guide to Tympanometry” (Appendix A, page A-25).
