Force sensors
Our digital force sensors are self-contained devices consisting of an internal load cell and its own display. We recommend our VFG dynamometers with touchscreen or AFG (Advanced Force Gauges) for use with the MultiTest-dV series universal testing machine. There are 10 models force measuring sensors effort from 2.5 to 2500 N (0,5  500 lbf) each which has an impressive accuracy of ±0.1% full scale.
The dynamometer is positioned on the traverse of the test frame using a dovetail mount and continuously measures and displays tension/compression, while simultaneously recording maximum peak readings in the background. When the dynamometer is connected to stand MultiTest-dV via interface cable, he can transmit the displayed readings load real time front panel and perform basic management challenge. This is achieved by adjusting the parameters on the dynamometer to send a signal to the test bench to "stop" or "stop and reverse" when a load limit or sample failure is detected. The values of tension and compression obtained using a dynamometer can be transmitted directly toA PC or printer to record the results.
In as an alternative to the testimony of the efforts are combined readings move MultiTest-dV and go on USB output port to generate a data packet access which is software VectorPro Lite to build charts, calculate the results and creation of test reports.
