Peak Load Measurement
1.
Slide the POWER switch to the PEAK position...
2.
Touch the adapter to the object being measured in a straight line, refer to Fig. 1.
3.
Zero the meter before each measurement.
4.
Begin measurement by applying force (pull or push). The LCD will display the peak value,
which is the highest reading encountered.
5.
After completing the measurement, the display will hold the peak load value if the position
and angle of the Force Gauge have not changed.
6.
After completing the measurement, the display will over-range if the position or angle of the
Force Gauge has changed. This occurs because the initial force of the transducer
decreases
due to a change in the position or angle of the Gauge after measurement.
Note:
Be sure to press "ZERO" before taking any new measurements.
Fast/Slow selection
Press the FAST/SLOW key to select the desired display update rate. The “((

Mounting
For best results, mount the Digital Force Gauge to a test stand. Mounting holes are provided on the
rear of the meter.
