Quick answer: A Peak Flow Meter is a handheld device used to measure Peak Expiratory Flow Rate (PEFR), commonly used in physiology education to demonstrate lung-function measurement, and by asthma patients for personal monitoring under a doctor’s guidance. Peak Flow Meter is priced at approximately ₹575 (indicative market benchmark, incl. GST, August 2026).
The Peak Flow Meter measures how fast a person can exhale air from their lungs in a single forced breath, expressed as Peak Expiratory Flow Rate (PEFR), a simple indicator used in the study of respiratory mechanics. In physiology and biology teaching labs, this device is used to give students hands-on experience measuring and comparing lung function readings across individuals or conditions as part of coursework. Peak flow meters of this general type are also widely used by people managing asthma for day-to-day self-monitoring, though such personal or clinical monitoring use should always be guided by a qualified healthcare professional, and institutions or individuals intending clinical/patient use should confirm the specific device’s medical-device certification and calibration standard with STEMAids before relying on it for health monitoring.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this Peak Flow Meter certified for clinical diagnostic use?
Medical-device certification has not been independently verified for this listing — it is described here primarily as a physiology teaching and general-monitoring device. Anyone relying on it for asthma management or clinical decisions should confirm certification with STEMAids and consult a qualified healthcare professional.
What does PEFR measure and why does it matter?
Peak Expiratory Flow Rate measures how fast air can be forced out of the lungs in one breath, which is used as a simple, quick indicator of airway function, commonly tracked over time in asthma management.
Is this suitable for classroom use?
Yes — peak flow meters like this are commonly used in physiology and biology teaching labs to give students hands-on experience with lung-function measurement and data comparison.
Does STEMAids supply disposable mouthpieces for shared classroom use?
Contact STEMAids to confirm current mouthpiece/accessory availability, as hygiene requirements for shared classroom equipment vary by institution.
Are exact scale range and calibration standard available for tender specification?
Exact scale range and calibration standard have not been independently verified for this listing. Institutions preparing tender documents should confirm precise specifications directly with STEMAids before finalising procurement paperwork.
Is STEMAids a registered manufacturer of this product?
Yes. Eduscope Smart Learning Solutions Private Limited is a Udyam-registered micro manufacturing enterprise (UDYAM-DL-06-0069460) and is ISO 9001:2015 certified. See the About page for full registration and certification details — manufacturer-stated, verify before citing in procurement documents.
