FGV-HXY High Capacity

High Capacity Digital Force Gauges with
180° reversible display & dual labeled
keypad for both push, pull applications

The Series FGV-HXY Digital Force Gauges offer an enhanced
heavy-duty housing allowing them to be utilized in high capacity
tension and compression applications. These instruments are uti­lized in a variety of applications such as, incoming quality inspec­tion, finished goods testing, R&D or almost any portable or force
stand testing requirement.

Models are available in 500 lb or 1000 lb ranges providing neces­sary performance for high capacity testing.

The 180° reversible display combined with the adjustable force
direction and dual labeled keypad enable these units to excel in
both compression and tension applications in any direction.FGV
models possess onboard statistical calculations and provide fast
access to maximum, minimum, average and standard deviation
data. Models include the free Toriemon software and USB cable
allowing further data analyis on a PC. The FGV-HXY’s 1,000 point
memory allows for data exporting in real time or after testing is
complete. In addition, the RS-232C, USB and analog outputs pro­vide maximum communication flexibility.
