TEST STAND MOUNTiNG
The DG Series force gauge has four #10-32 female
threads for mounting to CHATILLON test stands.
Ensure the #10-32 screws are not too long, other-
wise it may bind and damage the force gauge.
The screw thread length going into the back of the
gauge should not exceed 3/8 inch.
MAiNTENANcE
Gauge accuracy should be checked periodically
to ensure the gauge is within its calibration limits.
The calibration can be verified by applying known
weights (adjusted for local gravity) to the extension
hook. If adjustment is required, the gauge should
be returned to AMETEK for calibration.
