Applications:
Force gauges are useful in any application where force measurement is important. It can be a push or pull force, as our meters can measure both, and display in common units. Majorly useful in electronics, building hardware, textile, auto parts, ignition device such as lighter, fire fighting equipment, pen manufacturing, lock manufacturing, fishing gear, chemical, power machinery, scientific research institutions and many other industries and consumer applications.
Measuring Principle:
Force gauges use force sensor, or load cells, which converts mechanical force to electrical signal to measure the force applied. The applied force can be a push or pull, tensile or compressive strain, which outputs the relevant electric signal, to estimate force.
Precision and VersatilityEngineered for accuracy and adaptability, the DFG 10D measures forces up to 10N with a fine 0.001N resolution. Its selectable units enable seamless transitions between Newtons, kilograms, and pounds, catering to a variety of testing environments and requirements.
Robust Design for Industrial UseHoused in sturdy ABS plastic, this digital force gauge is ready for demanding settings. The strain gauge sensor ensures reliable readings, and integrated overload protection supports safety well beyond typical force limits, making it suitable for both bench and handheld operation.
Efficient Data ManagementWith an RS232 output, results can be easily transferred for further analysis or documentation. An intuitive digital display and both manual and automatic calibration streamline processes, delivering consistent results and operational ease.
