How it Works
The Digital Compression Scale uses an array of load cells to measure the compression force
applied to the platform. The Scale continuously displays the maximum force as applied by the
compression paddle and is thus well suited for testing compression over time. You can freeze the
display of the maximum force reading by pressing the
Pause/Hold
button. Press the
Zero
button to
reset.
