The Series BG Digital Force Gauge is an advanced force measurement solution,
with sophisticated measurement capabilities, data outputs, computer
control capabilities, and a long list of features and configurable settings. The
BG can stop motorized test stand travel at user-selectable set points, and can
also prevent force overload (when used with the
ESM motorized test stand).
Go / no go testing can also be accomplished with an optional plug-in hi / lo limits indicator.

Reversible Housing - A Mark-10 Exclusive
All Mark-10 force gauges have reversible housings that allow the user to use
the gauge with the load cell shaft pointing up or down, without the
inconvenience of upside-down buttons and display. The housing for Series BG and
Series EG gauges is reversible by separating the two halves and reassembling
them with just one connector - an extra bit of engineering that will make your
testing setups quicker and more efficient.

OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT
- A wide range of test stands and gripping fixtures
- Hi / lo limits indicator
Set limit conditions for a test - the indicator will display red lights for high and low limits, and a green light to indicate passing.
- Overload protection module
Protects the force gauge against overloads during motorized tests, adjustable from 20 - 110% of gauge's full capacity. For use with
Mark-10 motorized test stands.
- Set point cable
Stops test stand travel at programmable high and low set points for tension and compression forces. For use with
Mark-10 motorized test stands.
- Output cable
Send test data to a PC, statistical printer, or other
data collector for further analysis.
