The PCE-FM 500N force gauge is a microprocessor controlled dynamometer with fast and accurate readout of tensile and compressive forces in N, Kg and lb. The display of the force gauge is easily readable by the large numbers. The force gauge is equipped with an internal load cell for tensile and compression tests. The load cell of the force gauge PCE-FM 500N is equipped with a M6 threaded head. Thus, the force gauge can also be screwed into other brackets, test facilities and test stands and. The force gauge is operated with an internal battery or the external power supply.

The PCE-FM 500N force gage offers the option of mounting the force gauge on a test stand by means of threads on the rear of the device. Test stands are always used in a force gage if reproducible measurement results are required during the force measurement. These test stands are ideal additions to a force gage, because they are operated by a precise handwheel or a motor. In addition, both tensile and compressive force measurements can be performed on them. Experiments in the laboratory are thus possible with the force gage as well as the inspection of incoming goods.

This force gauge also has a USB interface for data transmission. With the interface and the software of the force measuring devices, the data can be transmitted quickly and easily to a PC. With the help of the optionally available mounting plate, the load cell can be adapted to decaying test benches. These test stands are ideal for tensile and compressive force measurement in quality control and laboratory testing or product development.
