The Series BG Digital Force Gauge is an advanced force measurement solution, with sophisticated measurement capabilities, data outputs, computer control capabilities, and a long list of features and configurable settings. The BG can stop motorized test stand travel at user-selectable set points, and can also prevent force overload (when used with the ESM motorized test stand). Go / no go testing can also be accomplished with an optional plug-in hi / lo limits indicator. Features/Specifications: * Compatible with all Mark-10 test stands and grips. * RS-232, Mitutoyo and analog outputs * GCL-Gauge Control Language for full computer control * Automatic timed output on RS-232 * Dual set points with outputs * Averaging mode for average readings over time * External trigger for contact or switch testing and data capture * General purpose I/O for external device control * Programmable analog and digital filters * Selectable units of measurement * Programmable default configuration * Peak memory for tensile and compressive forces * Push-button calibration * Battery or AC operation * Programmable automatic shutoff * Reversible aluminum housing for handheld use or test stand mounting (see below) * Same housing size for all capacities * Accuracy: ± 0.2% of full scale ±1 digit * Sampling rate: 65 readings/sec * Safe overload: 150% of capacity * Battery life: 8-10 hours per charge * Weight: 0.9 lbs (0.4 kg) * Environmental requirements: 40°F - 100°F [5°C - 45°C], <96% humidity (non-condensating) * Warranty: 3 years * CE mark Reversible Housing - A Mark-10 Exclusive: All Mark-10 force gauges have reversible housings that allow the user to use the gauge with the load cell shaft pointing up or down, without the inconvenience of upside-down buttons and display. The housing for Series BG and Series EG gauges is reversible by separating the two halves and reassembling them with just one connector - an extra bit of engineering that will make your testing setups quicker and more efficient.
