Monark 894

A global reference for anaerobic testing.

Monark 894 is developed for short-duration, high-intensity tests where timing, control and measurement accuracy matter.
Resistance is applied instantly using Monark’s patented weight basket system and pre-calibrated weights – ensuring transparent, consistent and repeatable results.

The LC frame offers quick adjustment and provides a stable setup even during intense efforts.
With PC connection via RS232 and full integration with Monark Anaerobic Test Software, 894 supports reliable protocols, clear data and efficient test procedures.

Trusted in research, sports science and performance environments worldwide.

 

Summary

894 is a precision ergometer tailored for anaerobic power tests such as Wingate and sprint profiling. Resistance is applied instantly through calibrated weights, ensuring visible and verifiable values for every test.

Built on the LC frame, 894 allows quick and accurate adjustments to both saddle and handlebar. This guarantees an ergonomic and stable setup during max-effort protocols.

It integrates with Monark Anaerobic Test Software to configure test duration, control the weight drop manually or automatically, and analyze fatigue across multiple test bouts.

All values are based on physics with full tranparency making the results consistent and easy to trust.

Use

Workload is generated by adding physical weights to the basket.
One kilogram equals one kilopond. Available weight options (0.1, 0.5, and 1.0 kg) allow precise adjustments up to 11 kp.

The basket is released manually or via software, applying resistance exactly at the desired RPM. This ensures controlled conditions at test start – critical for anaerobic protocols.

No calibration is needed. The system provides true mechanical accuracy in every session.

 

Monark 894LC is ideal for:

  • Sports science – anaerobic power profiling with repeatable test data
  • Elite performance – maximal load testing with consistent workload
  • Rehabilitation – controlled, short-burst capacity assessments
  • Research – transparent results using physical resistance values

Connection

894 connects to a PC using RS232 for test control and data communication.
The connection is stable and optimized for precision environments.

The included Monark Anaerobic Test Software allows full control of test setup, including duration (5–300 seconds), weight release (manual or automatic), and fatigue index calculation.

All measurements are based on pre calibrated weights.
This guarantees accurate and repeatable outcomes without recalculation or software estimation. The system ensures efficient use in multi-user labs by reducing setup time between tests.
