Digital force gauge with
integral load cell
Accuracy: ±0.15% of full scale
Capacity: Several models available with capacities from 8 oz to 100 lb
The
DFGS Series features an integral load cell with force measurement
accuracy of ±0.15% of full scale ±LSC (Least
Significant Character). All models feature RS232 serial data
communications and an internal sampling rate of 5000 Hz.
Other features include programmable high and low setpoints,
pushbutton calibration and an analog output for graphing
the force curve. All gauges feature user-selectable force
units (oz, lb, g, kg, N). A large, easy-to-read LCD display
indicates current and peak values, gauge settings and gauge
status. A selectable auto shutoff feature helps to preserve
battery life. Gauges come with accessories, battery charger
and carrying case.
This gauge is also available with an interchangeable remote
load cell (DFGS-R-ND).
