USING MTH TEST FRAME
The force gage mounts to the MTH Manual Tester using four M4 screws.

LOAD SENSOR MEASUREMENT
The load cell sensor, within the force gage housing, has a measurement
accuracy of better than 0.1% full scale and a safe overload rating of
200%. Force gages with a load capacity of 200 lbf (1000N) and below
are fitted with an M6 threaded load stem. The 500 lbf (2500N) force
gage model is fitted with an M10 threaded load stem.
NOTE
1. Load must always be applied axially. Use care and prevent
any side loading on the sensor. Side loading can affect the
measurement accuracy and lead to load cell damage.
2. Load cell sensors should NEVER
exceed their rated full scale capacity.
Overloading the load cell sensor will
lead to irreparable damage.
3. Load cell should go through a 10 minute
"warm-up" period if the force gage has
been turned off for an extended period
of time. Turn the force gage on and wait
10 minutes for the load cell electronics
to warm-up.
