Digital Force Gauge, 200 N, 44 lbf
The new FG-3000 Series digital force gauges are the choice for simple, cost-effective tension and compression testing. Combining one of the most compact housings, yet maintaining a large backlit LCD, these units were designed to fit perfectly in the hand for ease of use. The multi-language FG-3000s provide menu programming for the intuitive set-up of the instrument to your desired requirements. Three modes of operation are selectable: Track mode displays live readings, Peak mode records the maximum reading sensed during the test and Pre-set mode which activates user-defined high and low limit set points. The programmable limits provide a quick visual and audible indication if a test passes or fails. In addition, a comparator output enables the integration of the instrument into your quality system for repetitive testing such as on production lines.
The display graphics facilitate user comprehension and operation. An analog bar graph provides the perspective of the current reading in comparison to the full-scale range. Pass/Fail icons provide an instant response to the testing outcome while a storage symbol acknowledges when a reading is logged. A menu-selectable display orientation streamlines switching from push to pull testing for portable or test stand applications.
These high-tech instruments can log up to 500 readings at the push of a button for instant data acquisition. The data can be viewed on screen, sent to an optional printer, or uploaded on the free software program for graphing and statistical analysis. Models are available from 2.2 to 220 lb ranges providing a large offering for various applications such as incoming quality inspection, finished goods testing, R&D or almost any portable or force stand testing requirement.
