Advanced Chatillon digital force gauge with non-dedicated remote loadcell for flexibility

Note that the DFA-R-ND-series force gauges are replaced by (yet is still completely compatible with) Chatillon's new DFS-R-ND series force gauges

The DFA-R-ND Chatillon force gauge comes without a loadcell. You can specify different REMOTE series loadcells to use with the gauge for increased flexibility. These loadcells simply "plug in" to the gauge body allowing the user to have a common gauge with a range of capacities from 2 lbf up to 10,000 lbf. When combined with a REMOTE series loadcell, the force measurement accuracy is +/-0.3% of full scale.

All models feature RS232 serial data and MITUTOYO communications and an internal sampling rate of 10,000 Hz. The DFA series digital force gauge is ideal for critical applications where capturing precise peak readings are required. Combined with the standard NEXYGEN software, users have a very powerful and easy to use data acquisition and force measurement analysis system. Other features include the ability to store as many as 1000 test readings in as many as 99 batches. The gauge also features programmable high and low setpoints, pushbutton calibration and an analog output for graphing the force curve. All gauges feature user-selectable force units it oz, lbs, g, kg and N. A large, easy to read LCD display indicates current and peak values, gauge settings and gauge status. A selectable auto shutoff feature helps to preserve battery life.

The gauge is also available with an integral loadcell (Chatillon DFA).

When integrated with a Chatillon TCD-200 digitally controlled test stand, the DFA-R-ND becomes the heart of an extremely versatile testing system.
