The Chatillon digital force gauges are powerful yet user-friendly force gauges, designed for either handheld use or test stand mounting. These digital force gauges and torque gauges offer the best price performance value of any digital force gauge available, along with a high precision and an easy to use force measurement solution.

With our Digital Force Gauge DFS3, we give you, as the first in the world, the opportunity to connect two external sensors to your Digital Force Gauge, for greater flexibility.

Combine your Digital Force Gauge with a motorized test stand to benefit from a more stable and reliable test speed. This helps to eliminate any variables that might impact the force readings and offers an ideal solution for force measurement testing.

With our Digital Force Gauges you  get access to our innovative ForceTest Software.

The ForceTest software is an easy-to-use Windows based force measurement data analysis software for use with the DFE and DFS Series digital force gauges and torque gauges. Your test results are presented in a spreadsheet format, so you can analyze data and perform common mathematical and statistical calculations.

We have a whole jungle of grips, so only your own imagination sets the limit to the applications you can perform. Grips are so incredibly crucial to your test results. So to make it easy for you to find the right grip, these are divided according to industrial applications.
Should you still be in doubt, we have the experts to help you.

The Chatillon DFX II Series is a low cost digital force gauge, ideal for applications where users are interested in basic peak measurement, such as the force necessary to depress a button.

Attached to an MT test stand, this digital force gauge can measure the maximum tensile force applied before a cap comes off a spray can. Used with the optional pistol grip attachment, the DFX II can measure the force necessary to open a door.

This digital force gauge features an integral load cell with a measurement accuracy better than 0.3% FS. A large, easy-to-read, high resolution dot matrix LCD display supports a variety of standard gauge functions including normal peak reading. Selectable language displays and calibration procedure are included in the digital force gauge setup.

DFX II Series Key Features:

• Simple user interface
• 70-100 hours of continuous use
• Four capacities (10 lbf, 50 lbf, 100 lbf and 200 lbf)
• Selectable units of measurement (ozf, gf, lbf, kgf and N)
