Extech 475040 Digital Force Gauge
The Extech 475040 is a digital force gauge designed for precise push/pull measurements in various applications. With a capacity of up to 176 oz (5000 g or 49 N) and a basic accuracy of ±0.4%, it offers reliable performance for quality control, product testing, and laboratory use.
Description
The Extech 475040 Digital Force Gauge is engineered to provide accurate force measurements in both tension and compression modes. It features a load cell transducer with a basic accuracy of ±(0.4% of reading + 1 digit), ensuring reliable results across its measurement range. The gauge offers multiple units of measurement, including ounces, grams, and newtons, with resolutions down to 0.05 oz, 1 g, or 0.01 N.
For enhanced usability, the device includes peak hold and zero functions, allowing users to capture maximum force values and reset the display as needed. The large 5-digit LCD screen is backlit and supports both positive and reverse display orientations, facilitating easy reading in various lighting conditions.
Equipped with an overload capacity of 10 kg, the 475040 is built to withstand demanding testing environments. The device operates on six AA 1.5V batteries and comes complete with tension and compression adaptors, a carrying case, and a 5″ extension rod for versatile testing setups.
