Chatillon DFE3-010 Offers

Get advanced, high functionality with this digital gauge force which is used to collect breaking force and peel strength data on test materials. In addition, it allows you to perform statistical analysis on the data directly on the screen.

Features

  • Measurement accuracy is better than 0.2% full scale in integral load cell
  • Simple user interface
  • Test setup functionality
  • Data sampling rate of 30 kHz
  • Selectable units of measurement (ozf, gf, lbf, kgf and N)
  • Delivered in a rugged carrying case
  • Optionally inverted display with dimmable illumination
  • Audible warning and key-press tones
  • Pincode Protection to disable unwanted configuration changes and ability to hide results
  • An ergonomic design that ensures a stable grip and easy mounting
  • A large, easy-to-read color-display that highlights readings and icons for easy navigation
  • A rugged rubber keypad ensures a single touch operation that corresponds to displayed options on the screen and guides its user during operation

Comprehensive results

Supplies you with comprehensive results that are easy to view and understand. This gauge displays:

  • Measured result with unit: peak tension and compression, and load average/time
  • Operating mode
  • Pass-Fail result
  • High and low load results
  • Saved results
  • Statistical calculations: Average with MIN and MAX results, Cv with average and standard deviation, standard deviation, and graphical representation of saved results

Accuracy

Measurement accuracy is better than 0.1% full scale in integral load cell models. A large, easy-to-read, high resolution, full color LCD display supports a variety of standard gauge functions including normal and peak readings, high/low limits, setpoints, pass/fail results, statistical results, load averaging, % and sharp break detection, loadcell actuation and direction. Loads are displayed in ozf, gf, lbf, kgf and N units. The display can be inverted and displayed results may be "hidden" from the operator. This gauge also offers password protection for gauge set ups.

Outputs

This gauge comes standard with a USB-C connection. The USB interface allows communications with a PC.

Calibrate and verify status

This gauge incorporates flash memory. You have immediate access to battery conditions, including estimated battery life remaining. You can also view loadcell status, including the number of overloads that have been applied to the gauge.

Time method

The time method allows you to establish your load averaging based on a load threshold and time duration. The load threshold determines the start of the averaging, while the time duration defines the length of the test period. The gauge will begin taking readings when the threshold is reached and will continue to take and average readings until the time duration has expired.

Battery life

The extraordinarily long battery life of this gauge reduces the need for continuous recharging. The dimming functionality of this gauge provides a battery life of 30 hours when the dimming is off while turning the dimming on will provide a full 40 hours of battery life.

Unique user interface

Easy to use, single layer user interface. No deep menu structure! Operate and set-up this gauge to perform your tasks. Fast and intuitive! The high resolution display features brightness adjustments and can be inverted when required. The display can even be "hidden" at the press of a button. A load bar graph indicating load direction, measured load, and safe load helps prevent overloads: the load bar changes from green to red to indicate proximity to load cell capacity. The integral loadcells feature mechanical overload protection at 150% full scale.

Dependable measurements

This gauge features an integral loadcell sensor that delivers repeatable, accurate results. The innovative load bargraph shows dynamic load, direction of load and warns you of pending overload conditions. Smart technology in the gauge even keeps track of overload history to aide in maintenance and troubleshooting.

Applications

  • Collecting production sample data at the end of a production line
  • Performing pass/fail test status, or recording of quality testing data for incoming material inspection conformance
  • Simple applications where a low-cost force gauge will meet requirements, without compromising functionality
Automate with ForceTest

Expand functionality

The ForceTest software expands the functionality of your force gauge. This easy-to-use Windows based software interfaces directly to your digital force gauge enabling you to automatically perform tests and graphs using a personal computer. Test results can be followed directly on the screen while the test is running.

Intuitive user interface

The colorful and intuitive user interface ensures that tests are simple to set up. Custom chart colors can be set for easy viewing. Units of measure, fonts, titles and force measurement resolution can also be customized through the ForceTest software.

Easy export and reporting

Test results are presented in a preadsheet format allowing you to analyze and manipulate data and perform common mathematical and statistical calculations. Results may be displayed graphically versus time. Tabular results are displayed and can be used to create relationships. Test results can be exported to a .csv format. Graphs and test results can also be exported directly to PDF and Word formats.

Wide variety of options

Force at maximum in a time window, average force and much more can be captured using the ForceTest software. Basic force measurement such as tensile and compression test formats, pull to limit, and compress to limit are performed by clicking just a few buttons.

Reduce setup time

To reduce setup time the ForceTest software offers pre-set templates. It also empowers its user to auto load the latest test performed, and to open previously saved tests for use as template for new tests.
