Microprocessor-controlled, the DFS series represents a unique approach to force testing. Designed to be handheld or stand mounted, the DFS features many advanced functions typically included on gauges costing twice as much. Intelligent and versatile, these high performance gauges are easily user configured for sampling and display update rate, units of measure, baud rate, data output stream, memory type and high and low set points. Large memory capacity (100 samples) and on board statistical processing allows the DFS series to operate with or without computer control. Additionally, each gauge possesses three types of signal outputs for data collection and function analysis.

′′R′′ in part number denotes reverse display.

The Digital Remote Indicator (DRI) incorporates Shimpo′s flagship DFS gauge design and features a high sampling rate of up to 1000 Hz for precise peak force and torque measurements. The DRI stores up to 100 readings plus statistics that later can be conveniently downloaded for SPC purposes. Used in conjunction with a Shimpo motorized or manual test stand, the DRI lends itself to thousands of applications and permits hands-free testing. Used by hand, the DRI safely allows the accurate measurement of forces and torque in hard-to-reach areas.

Shimpo LC remote load cells are available in capacities up to 500 pounds, enabling force testing of bulky objects. Our TS-SD and TS-J torque transducers precisely measure static torque for capacities up to 100 inch pounds. Available with 3/8 inch square drive (TS-SD) or Jacobs Chuck (TS-J).

The DART 1000 series, with its fast 1000 Hz update rate, is able to capture the highest force peaks. With variable display update rate and the same superior accuracy as the DFS series, these new gauges feature unique 180 degree flip displays, permitting the user to read the display right-side up. Additional enhancements are; dual direction keypad, variable baud rate for SPC applications, selectable force direction indication, and selectable power on/off settings.

The FGV-X Dart 1000 series gauges include RS-232c and analog outputs, as well as an overload output signal for gauge protection.
