Checkline Series 2 [M2-200] Economical Digital Force Gauge, 200 lbF / 100 kgF / 1000 N. Series 2 digital force gauges are designed for basic tension and compression force testing applications up to 500 lbF (2500 N). Peak tension and compression readings are reliably captured via the gauges' ±0.5% accuracy and 500 Hz sampling rate. A backlit graphic LCD displays the current, peak tension, or peak compression reading. The gauges are overload protected to 150% of capacity. An ergonomic, reversible aluminum housing allows for hand held use or fixture mounting, rugged enough for applications in both production and laboratory environments.
