Digital force gauge for determination of compression and tension forces, usable for numerous applications in a lot of sectors of industry
Force measuring unit with USB and RS-232 output signal
Low cost basic model for compression and tension forces
Special Features
• 2 operation modes:
real time – display the actual tension or compression force
peak force – to measure the peak force during a test
• Force gauge DST with high sampling rate of 1000 times/sec to measure the peak force
• Display update 8 times/sec
• Output signal:
– USB
– RS-232
• Force gauge DST with user switchable units: N, gf (kgf) and ozf (lbf)
• Programmable high/low set-points for go/no-go testing:
Display: good (OK), underrun/exceeding (OK is not displayed)
• »Zero Set« to zero the gauge in all operating positions
• Mechanical stopper to prevent sensor-breakdown
• With the optional software Force Logger Plus up to 4 sensors can be connected simultaneously for data processing to a PC
• Manufacturers calibration report is included
• Display can be reversed for inverted use; e. g. on vertical test stand
