Description
Series 4 digital force gauges measure tension and compression force. Peak load is indicated on the LCD display. Capacities for this gauge range from 0.12 lb to 500 lb (0.5 N to 2500 N). Simple menu navigation allows for quick access to the gauges’ many features and configurable parameters. Data can be transferred to a PC or other data collector via USB, RS-232, Mitutoyo (Digimatic), or analog outputs.
On-board data memory for up to 50 readings is included, as are statistical calculations and output to a PC. Integrated set points with indicators are ideal for pass-fail testing and for triggering external devices such as an alarm, relay, or test stand.
The force gauges are directly compatible with Mark-10 test stands, grips, and software.
