Using the GS
Fitting Accessories
Couple fittings directly to the load cell stem or use an extension
rod. The threads are 5mm and have capacities up to 2500 N.
Ensure that fixturing does nor contact the force gauge case.
Ensure that anything coupled to the gauge is screwed finger-tight
only. Excessive torque can damage the load cell and is not covered by
warranty.
Mounting to a Fixture or Test Stand
Use the two 10-32 threaded holes. The distance between the
holes is 2.5 inch. Or fours 3mm thread holes on the rear of the gauge
can be used for mounting the gauge. A versatile stand mounting plate is
available to couple the force gauge to many brands of test stands.
