Series-5 Mark-10 Advanced Digital Force Gauge
Advanced Mark-10 digital force gauge for tension and compression testing from 0.5 N to 10 kNThe Series-5 is an advanced digital force gauge for tension and compression testing, available in 17 measuring ranges from 0.5 N to 10 kN. It combines ±0.1% of full-scale accuracy with a 7,000 Hz sampling rate and 1/5000 resolution for reliable measurement of both steady and rapidly changing forces.
A large backlit graphic display shows force readings, peaks, set points and a live load bar graph. The rugged aluminium housing is reversible, allowing the load cell shaft to face up or down while the display and keys remain upright.
The Series-5 stores up to 1,000 readings with statistical calculations and supports USB, RS-232, Mitutoyo and analog outputs. Averaging, external trigger and programmable set point functions make it suitable for standalone testing or integration with Mark-10 test stands, grips and software.
- 17 force ranges from 0.5 N to 10 kN for tension and compression testing
- ±0.1% of full-scale accuracy with 1/5000 resolution
- High-speed 7,000 Hz sampling for capturing rapidly changing forces
- Large backlit graphic display with peak values, set points and live load bar graph
- 1,000-reading memory with minimum, maximum, mean and standard deviation statistics
- Programmable set points with indicators and outputs for pass/fail testing and external equipment control
- Averaging mode calculates average force over a defined period, including applications such as peel testing
- External trigger mode supports switch activation testing and remote display capture
- USB, RS-232, Mitutoyo and analog outputs for connection to PCs and data collection systems
- Automatic data output via USB or RS-232
- Configurable audio alarms, key tones and password protection for individual keys and calibration
- Reversible aluminium housing for handheld use or mounting to compatible Mark-10 test stands
