The Series 3 digital force gauges offer a sampling rate of 2,000 Hz, ensuring precise measurements across various testing conditions. These gauges are equipped with a backlit graphic LCD that shows information in large, easy-to-read characters, and feature a user-friendly menu for easy access to the device’s extensive functionalities and adjustable settings. For data collection, a USB output is available, and set point indicators facilitate pass-fail assessments.
Designed with an overload protection feature that safeguards the device up to 200% of its capacity, the gauges also display an analog load bar on the screen for a visual depiction of the force being applied. The ergonomic and reversible aluminum housing of the gauges allows for versatile use, either handheld or mounted on a test stand for more complex testing scenarios. Series 3 gauges are fully compatible with Mark-10 test stands, grips, and software, offering a comprehensive testing solution.
Included with the gauges is the MESUR® Lite data acquisition software, which simplifies the process of collecting continuous or single-point data. The software’s functionality includes a one-click export to Excel, enhancing the ease of data analysis and manipulation.
