High
Capacity Mechanical Force Gauge
Accuracy: ±0.5% of full scale
Capacity: Several models available with capacities from 200 lbs to 500
lbs (kg and N versions also available)
The Chatillon DG-series mechanical force gauge is ideal
for a wide range of force testing applications up to 500
pounds. Based on Chatillon's popular DPPH series force gauge,
the DG-series force gauges feature a larger, 2.25" dial
for improved resolution and readability, peak hold button,
durable plastic housing, universal mounting plate, ergonomic
shape and improved accuracy of +/-0.5% of full scale. The
DG force gauge is an excellent, economical solution for tensile
or compression testing.
The Chatillon DG Series gauge may be used as a hand-held
device or can be equipped with optional handle set for two-hand
operation. It is ideal for test stand applications, and when
combined with the MT-500 series mechanical test stand, offers
you a versatile, economic test system with a capacity of
up to 500 pounds.
The DG-series force gauge features an easy to read concentric
dial that measures clockwise only. Dial rotates 360 degrees
for taring. A peak hold switch captures peak readings and
can be easily and quickly returned to zero. A mechanical
overload feature protects the gauge from damage. Available
in pounds, kilograms, or newtons versions. The DG gauges
come complete with a protective carrying case and a set of
stainless steel attachments. A certificate of calibration
with NIST data is supplied standard.
