Advanced Force Gauge User’s Manual 8
All the current settings
are saved when the
gauge is turned off and
the gauge will function in
the same mode when
powered up again.
Basic Functions
Display of Tension/
Compression
If the AFG has suffered a
serious overload
condition, the load
indicator bar will be
partially displayed even
when no load is present.
This is a warning that the
load cell is damaged and
you should immediately
contact your supplier to
arrange repair.
* Do not overload the load sensor. This will cause
irreparable damage. Forces greater than 120% of full-
scale will produce an audible beep until load is
released and an OL symbol will appear on the display
for 30 seconds .
Forces greater than 150% of full-scale will produce an
audible beep until load is released and an OL symbol
will appear
permanently on the display. Consult your
supplier to arrange repair.
To power down the gauge press the red key.
Tensile forces are displayed on the AFG and recog-
nized by the symbol
Compressive forces are displayed on the AFG and
recognised by the symbol
Figure 2
Tension and compression displays
A load indicator bar alerts the operator to how much
load has been applied to the load sensor. As the load
approaches the maximum rating of the load sensor,
the indicator bar changes appearance when above
approx. 80% of the rated capacity. This warns you
that steps should be taken to prevent excessive load
being applied.
For tensile forces the indicator bar is solid then
dotted. For compressive forces the indicator bar is
dotted then solid. See Figure 2.
