Digital Ring Force Gauge
The Morehouse Digital Ring Force Gauge offers high reliability and user-friendliness for a variety of force measurement applications. The instrument features a built-in indicator and can be used to verify test machines and weighing systems, or used to measure applied forces in various configurations.
The digital indicator displays the applied force values directly in engineering units and does not need an interpretation table to convert reading. Digital Ring Force Gauges offer several features in a convenient, compact, and easy-to-use package.
You can also upgrade your existing Morehouse analog Ring Force Gauge to the new digital system to take advantage of the higher accuracy, better performance, and all the other features of the new system.
Features include:
Accuracy of 0.2 - 0.5 % of full scale (Models since 2019 are 0.2 % of full scale from 1,000 lbf capacities and 0.5 % on capacities below 1,000 lbf)
Direct display of force in engineering units
Max Hold option for both compression and tension modes
Force Freeze button
Available in various capacities up to 1,000,000 lbf
Available in compression-only or compression/tension models
TIR function displays the difference between the maximum and minimum applied forces
TIR function stores Max and Min forces in memory for varying load applications
Auto-Off function; expected battery life exceeds 300 hours; easy battery change;
Calibrated using Morehouse deadweight standards up to 120,000 lbf
Ring Dynamometer
The Morehouse Ring Dynamometer is an instrument designed to measure mechanical forces. It's applications include checking mechanical and hydraulic presses, and calibration of universal testing machines, Brinell hardness testers, weighing systems, and other force measurement systems. It is a simple to use device and is recommended when a load cell system cannot be used.
Features include:
Accuracy of 0.05 % of range
Analog device, no wires or power required
Calibrated at specific force loads
Constructed from closely-controlled alloy steel
