Digital Force gauge, 1000 lbF / 16000 ozF / 500 kgF / 5000 N / 5 kN
The M5-750, M5-1000, M5-1500, and M5-2000 advanced digital force gauges are designed for tension and compression force testing in numerous applications across virtually every industry, with capacities up to 2,000 lbF (10,000 N). The gauges features an industry-leading sampling rate of 7,000 Hz, producing accurate results even for quick-action tests. A large, backlit graphics LCD displays large, legible characters, while the simple menu navigation allows for quick access to the gauges’ many features and configurable parameters. Data can be transferred via USB, RS-232, Mitutoyo (Digimatic), or analog outputs.
On-board data memory for up to 1,000 readings is included, as are statistical calculations with output to a PC. Integrated set points with indicators and outputs are ideal for pass-fail testing and for triggering external devices such as an alarm, relay, or test stand. The gauges are overload protected to 200% of capacity, and an analog load bar is shown on the display for graphical representation of applied force.
The gauges’ averaging mode addresses the need to record the average force over time, useful in applications such as peel testing, while the external trigger mode makes switch activation testing simple and accurate. An ergonomic, reversible aluminum design allows for handheld use or test stand mounting for more sophisticated testing requirements. The force gauges are directly compatible with high capacity Mark-10 test stands, grips, and software.
