The Chatillon® DFS-R Series supplies accurate load measurement for capacities up to 1000 lbf, 5 kN. Ideal for handheld or test stand applications,measurement accuracy is better than 0.1% full scale. A large, easy-to-read, high resolution dot matrix LCD display supports a variety of standard gauge functions including normal and peak readings, high/low limits, setpoints, pass/fail results, statistical results, load averaging, load comparisons, % and sharp break detection, sensor actuation and direction. Measurements are displayed in ozf, gf, lbf, kgf and N units. The DFS-R gauge comes standard with our NEXYGEN gauge software, RS-232 cable, carrying case, battery adapter/charger, and NIST Certificate of Calibration with data. Uncertainty data per ISO/IEC 17025 is supplied standard with sensors.

The Chatillon® DFS-R-ND Series supplies accurate load and torque measurement in a common gauge. Ideal for handheld or test stand applications, the DFS-R-ND may be equipped with smart loadcells or torque sensors. The auto-recognition feature knows whether a load or torque measurement is required. Measurement accuracy is better than 0.25% full scale (higher accuracy available). A large, easy-to-read, high resolution dot matrix LCD display supports a variety of standard gauge functions including normal and peak readings, high/low limits, setpoints, pass/fail results, statistical results, load averaging, load comparisons, % and sharp break detection, sensor actuation and direction. Measurements are displayed in ozf, gf, lbf, kgf and N units or oz-in, g-cm, lb-in, N-cm and N-m units. The DFS-R-ND gauge comes standard with our NEXYGEN gauge software, RS-232 cable, carrying case, battery adapter/charger, and NIST Certificate of Calibration with data. Uncertainty data per ISO/IEC 17025 is supplied standard with sensors.

Interchangeable Loadcell Sensors

The Chatillon® SLC Series loadcells are designed to be used exclusively with the Chatillon DFS-R-ND Series digital indicator. SLC loadcells feature "smart technology". The DFS-R-ND digital indicator recognizes the loadcell and automatically scales the gauge to the capacity of the loadcell connected. Load readings are selectable in gf, ozf, lbf, kgf and N. The SLC loadcells have mechanical overload protection to 150% full scale. Because of the "smart technology" the loadcell will maintain a history of overload occurrences. SLC loadcells have a retractable cord, which may fully extend to over 8 ft. (2.4 m). A 15-pin D Connector plugs into the DFS-R-ND housing.SLC smart loadcell Spec. Sheet

Interchangeable Torque Sensors

The Chatillon® STS Series Torque Sensors are used exclusively with Chatillon DFS-R-ND Series digital gauges. These high accuracy sensors feature "smart technology" that is recognized by the force gauge. The gauge can determine the sensor capacity, scaling requirements and determine sensor status including overload history. Torque may be measured in oz-in, lb-in, N-cm, kg-cm and N-m in either clockwise or counterclockwise direction. Sensor features a jacobs chuck type connection for holding samples. The cord extends to nearly 8 feet (2.5 m). STS smart torque sensors Spec. Sheet
