The Shimpo FGV-RS232 accessory kit contains an RS232 cable, software, and charger for use with Shimpo FGV-X series force gauges. The cable transmits data between a force gauge and a PC. Software is included for data analysis, and it comes with power adaptors for charging the gauge’s battery.Force gauges, also called push-pull gauges or tension gauges, measure the tensile (pull) or compression (push) force applied to an object. They are used to test the strength and functionality of a variety of machines, electronic components, cables, wires, and consumer products in scientific, medical, automotive, quality assurance, and manufacturing applications. A digital force gauge shows the amount of force in digits on the gauge's display. Response time varies among digital force gauges depending on the speed of the processor. An analog (or mechanical) force gauge shows measurements on a calibrated dial. Analog force gauges are not as precise as digital force gauges, but they provide instantaneous measurements and can be used in a wider range of environmental conditions than digital force gauges. Hooks, compression plates, levers, handles, test stands, and other accessories can be used with the gauge for taking measurements on objects with a range of shapes and sizes.Shimpo Instruments manufactures force, torque, and speed evaluation instruments. The company, founded in 1974 and headquartered in Itasca, IL, meets International Organization for Standardization (ISO) standard 9001.What’s in the Box?FGS-100PXH motorized test stand(1) 5 mm Allen wrench (4) M4x8 Phillips head screws (3) M5x6 Phillips head screws(1) FGV-FGS250P interface cable (1) FGS-ANALOG analog output cableInstructions
