Shimpo FG-3000 Digital Force Gauge
The Shimpo FG-3000 Digital Force Gauge is the choice for simple, economical tension and compression testing. Combining a compact housing, yet maintaining a large back- lit LCD screen, these units are designed to fit snug in the hand for ease of use. The multi-language Shimpo FG-3000’s provide menu programming for intuitive set-up of the instrument to your desired requirements. Three modes of operation are available: Track mode displays live readings, Peak mode records the maximum values sensed during testing, and Pre-set mode, which activates user defined high and low limit set points. The programmable limits provide a fast visual and audible alert if a test passes or fails. Additionally, a comparator output enables integration of the instrument into your quality system for repetitive testing, for example production lines.
1000 Hz Sample Rate combined with +/-0.3% F.S. accuracy provides fast sampling producing great resolution and more accurate results Three mode operation: Track, Peak & Preset Limits 180 reversible display, tension/compression icons, and vertical printed keypad allows usage as a portable gauge or mounted upside down on a test stand Programmable High & Low Limits allow for instant visual and audible indication of pass or fail testing in Preset mode 500 point data collection capability can be viewed on display, sent to optional printer, or uploaded to software package for further analysis Rugged, ergonomic die cast aluminum construction allows usage in demanding applications Comparator output function provides user with easy Pass/Fail testing system integration capabilities Multi-language and engineering units selection provides flexible user options Field Calibration capability eliminates the need to send to a lab for calibration Calibration Certificate included along with popular adapter attachments Free Data logging/graphing software provided, sample rate up to 60 readings/sec
