PCE-FM1000 force
meter
for measuring
traction and compression up to 100kg / 981N,
with dynamometric cell and RS-232
interface
|
The PCE-FM1000 force
meter is controlled by a microprocessor which
can quickly and accurately read traction and
compression. The display of the force meter is
easy to read thanks to its large clear digits,
thus avoiding errors when taking traction or
compression readings. The force meter has a
dynamometric casing with a 2m cable to connect
the meter to the casing.
The dynamometric cell can be attached using
clasps which come with the device. The clasps
can be unscrewed and removed from both sides of
the dynamometric cell in such as way that the
cell can also be fastened to other elements such
as a test position. The force meter is powered
by batteries or by a mains adaptor (300mA power
source is available as an accessory).
The force meter also has an RS-232
port allowing for it to be connected to a
computer. With optional software and RS-232
cable, data can be tranferred to a computer to
permit data to be evaluated at a later point in
time. The force meter transfers
data at a rate of 4 readings per second. If data
is saved simultaneously to a computer, this
should be done through the Windows hyperterminal
as a data logger. The data transfer rate to the
computer is the same.
Here
you can see the optional software package. To
learn more about the dynamometric cell go to
LTS-20 test position.
The test position is ideal for measuring
traction and compression in quality control and
laboratory experiments.

Test Position
The force meter can be combined with any of the
three test positions we have available.
Two test positions are equipped with a crank and
one the third has a motor.
The effective use of the test position is in
daily testing of materials in a laboratory and
you wish to maintain the same conditions,
eliminating the possibility of human error.
The technical specifications for the different
positions are available at this link:
Test Positions.
Descriptions of test positions can be found
within the corresponding on-line category:
force meters.
