Lutron FG5100 Dynamometer

Product Overview

The Lutron FG5100 is a compressive and tensile force meter that allows reading in three units: G/oz/N or kG: kg/LB/N. The unit has a peak hold function - a memory for reading the maximum value. This model includes an RS-232 serial interface.

Key features

• Large LCD display with backlight.
• Measurement of compressive and tensile forces.
• Range up to 100kg, high resolution, high accuracy and high repeatability of measurement results.
• Choice of measurement units: kg/LB/N.
• Independent measuring sensor.
• Peak Hold function allowing the maximum reading in a series of measurements to be retained on the display during measurements.
• Zero range button working both during normal measurement and with Peak Hold function active.
• Full zeroing control (tare).
• Fast/Slow switch of the reading refresh rate.
• Readout polarity reversal switch (direction of measured force).
• Overload protection.
• Possibility of fixing the instrument on the measuring stand.
• Low current consumption - extended battery life.
