CHATILLON LG SERIES MECHANICAL FORCE GAUGE, 20 x 0.1 lbf
Three Graduation Styles: LBF, KGF & Newtons
o Tensile (Pull) and Compression (Push) Testing
o Peak Load Switch
o Tare Ring
o Intrinsically Safe
o NIST Calibration with Data
o 2 Year Warranty
Based on our popular DPP Series force gauge, the LG Series features a larger, 2.25-inch dial for improved resolution and readability, peak hold button, ergonomic shape and improved accuracy of +0.5% of full scale. The LG gauge is an excellent, economical solution for tensile or compression testing.
The durable, plastic housing fits naturally in the hand for a comfortable and firm grip even at maximum loads. Gauges may be mounted to a test stand for even greater control and consistent results in repetitive testing applications. The easy to read concentric dial measures clockwise only. Dial rotates 360-degrees for taring. A peak hold button captures peak readings and can be easily and quickly returned to zero. A mechanical overload feature protects the gauge from damage. Available in lbf, kgf or N units of measure.
LG Series gauges come complete with protective carrying case and a set of stainless steel attachments. A Certificate of Calibration with Data is supplied standard.
APPLICATIONS
- Use handheld for a "go"/"no go" check of switch operation
- Use handheld and apply a pulling force to disconnect cables and hoses and record maximum necessary tension.
- Mount on a Chatillon MT test stand to check the necessary compression force to engage a breaker
