M7-012, Series 7 – Professional Digital Force Gauge
IMPERIAL
0.12 – 500 lb
METRIC
54 g – 227 kg
When fast, continuous data sampling and generous data storage are key to your test situation, the M7 professional digital force gauge is the unit of choice. The M7 gauge can do everything the M5 gauge can do, plus more. Its blazing fast sampling rate of 14,000 Hz and internal memory for 5,000 test readings give it a distinct advantage in rapid, dynamic force testing settings. For demanding compression and tension measurements up to 500 lbf (2,500 N), this gauge boasts an accuracy of ±0.1%.
And it is available in eleven different models to suit the specific load range of your measurements. Compatible with all Group Four test stands, the M7 is a versatile tool in the field and test laboratory. Easy to use and read, the gauge quickly connects to any PC for download of stored data. Operates in peak or averaging mode over five different programmable units of measure. Attach an optional foot switch for hands-free operation, and the M7 is even more valuable in challenging test situations.
