Touchscreen Force Gauge (VFG)
The VFG and AFG range of digital force gauges combine perfectly with the MultiTest-dV to create a flexible, standalone force tester.
To ensure that you have the optimum selection to meet your tension and compression testing needs, ten different models are available to cover the range from 2.5 N right up to 2500 N.

Capacity, range and accuracy
Each gauge reads from zero to its full nominal capacity (listed below).
Measurement accuracy is an outstanding ±0.1% of the gauge capacity, e.g., VFG 100 has a full-scale capacity of 100 N so is accurate to ±0.1 N at any point between 0 - 100 N.

Enhanced Load Sensors (ELS)
The ELS range of interchangeable tension and compression loadcells is specially adapted to the MultiTest-dV and OmniTest materials testers.
To ensure that you have the optimum selection to meet your tension and compression testing needs, thirteen different models are available to cover the range from 2 N right up to 2500 N.
The ELS comprises a sturdy mounting box with an internal loadcell c/w small fixing thread and occupies minimal space. The ELS-S comprises the same mounting box with an external S-beam loadcell situated below - it provides a more rigid secure connection for large, heavy grips and fixtures.

ELS capacity, range and accuracy
Each loadcell reads from zero to its full nominal capacity (listed below).
Measurement accuracy is an outstanding ±0.5% of reading from 5-100% of the loadcell capacity, eg ELS 100 when measuring 10N it is accurate to ±0.05 N or when measuring 50N it is accurate to ±0.25 N.
