SEALS USA, Inc.Instruments Division Tel: (630)924-7138 Email: support@seals-usa.comThe new FG-3000R Series digital force gauges are the choice forsimple, cost-effective compression testing. Combining one of themost compact housings, yet maintaining a large back-lit LCD,these units were designed to fit perfectly in the hand for ease ofuse. The multi-language FG-3000’s provide menu programmingfor intuitive set-up of the instrument to your desired requirements.Three modes of operation are selectable: Track mode displayslive readings, Peak mode records the maximum reading sensedduring the test, and Pre-set mode which activates user definedhigh and low limit set points. The programmable limits provide aquick visual and audible indication if a test passes or fails. In ad-dition, a comparator output enables integration of the instrumentinto your quality system for repetitive testing such as on produc-tion lines.The integral button style load-cell attached via the flexible, metalbraided cable enables reading to be taken in machinery or fix-tures where other force gauge adapters are unable to reach or fit.The display graphics facilitate user comprehension and opera-tion. An analog bar graph provides perspective of current readingin comparison to the full scale range. Pass/Fail icons provide aninstant response of the testing outcome while a storage symbolacknowledges when a reading is logged. A menu-selectable dis-play orientation streamlines switching from push to pull testing forportable or test stand applications.FG-3000R Digital Force GaugeOperation ManualOperators should wear protection such as a mask and gloves in casepieces or components break away from the unit under test.Whether the unit is ON or OFF, DO NOT exceed the capacity of thegauge. NEVER exceed 150% of the rated capacity, or the load cell willbe damaged. At 110% of the rated capacity, the display will flash awarning.When mounting FG-3000 Series Digital Force Gauges, use M4 mount-ing screws with a maximum insertion depth of 7 mm into the gauge.Hand tighten mounting screws, DO NOT use tools. Do not use damagedclamp.Measure in line tension and compression forces only. DO NOT attemptto measure forces at an angle to the measuring shaft – damage to loadcell and/or shaft may result.Do not attempt to repair or alter this instrument. Warranty will be voidedand damage to the unit may result.Use and store within the stated temperature and humidity ranges, ordamage and failure may result.When using adapter measuring heads, do not use tools. Hand tightenonly.SPECIFICATIONSAccuracy: ± 0.5% F.S.Selectable Units: kN, kgf, N, klbf and lbf. (Depending on Range)Overload Capacity: 150% of F.S.
