In addition, it features high-speed continuous data capture and storage with memory for up to 5000 readings.
Ruggedly built for many years of service in laboratory and industrial environments, this force gauge features programmable foot switch sequencing, break detection, and 1st/2nd peak detection. Additionally, it includes a coefficient of friction and user-defined units of measurement. For productivity enhancement, it also features automatic data output, data storage, and zeroing functions upon the completion of break detection, averaging, and external triggers.
Features
High-speed data capture and storage
Capture and store up to 5000 continuous data points at a rate of up to 14,000 readings per second. This unique function is ideal for capturing switch activation forces, sharp breaks, and other short-duration applications. Configurable start and stop triggers are provided. The data acquisition rate is variable and can be slowed to also capture longer events, such as structure relaxation, material expansion, and others.
Data from the storage buffer can be exported to data collection software such as MESUR® gauge for further analysis and graphing. Using this force gauge could replace cumbersome and expensive data acquisition hardware and software.
Foot switch command string
Integrate your foot switch/automation system with this force gauge to improve testing ergonomics and efficiency; no need for multiple key presses. Up to three steps may be programmed for a single foot switch activation. Select from several commands, including request peak reading, zero the display, save to memory, and others. Time delays can be inserted between each step.
Automatic data output/save/zero/I/O pin toggle
Upon completion of several event types, this force gauge can perform the following automatic functions:
Applicable events include:
User-defined unit of measurement
This force gauge displays six standard units of measurement. One additional user-defined unit is provided for unique applications. A base unit is specified, along with a multiplier, and 5-character name.
