Special Features


2 operation modes:
real time – display the actual tension or compression force
peak force – to measure the peak force during a test

Output signal:
– USB
– RS-232 (selectable baud rate)
– analog ±1 V DC

Force measuring device with high sampling rate of 1000 times/s for fast acquisition of peak values

3 memory modes:
Continuous memory – permanent saving of readings and statistical values of a series of measurements
