DIGITAL FORCE GAUGES
FGV / FGE Series

Ergonomically designed to fit in the palm of your hand, the rugged, all metal construction of the microprocessor-controlled FGV and FGE series permits accurate measurement of compression and tension forces up to 100 pounds (force testing 0-500 pounds is available using the FGV-H and FGE-H series gauges). With the same superior accuracy of the DFS series, the FGV and FGE feature a unique, push-button inverted digital display, permitting the user to read the display in a right side-up fashion. For handheld or test stand mounting use, the FGV and FGE are ideal for R & D, OEM and production floor applications.

The FGV series includes all FGE features plus RS232C and analog outputs and an overload output signal. One year warranty.
