ZTA Digital Force Gauge

ZTA Digital Force Gauge with Luminescent OLED Display, Intuitive Menu Driven Interface

Standard Features

  • OLED electro luminescent display is highly visible in dark environments
  • Selectable lbf, kgf, and N Units (ozf, gf measured in low capacity models)
  • Color-coded LED indicators and output signal for Go/No Go testing
  • 30,000/sec ultra-high sampling rate; processes and transmits 2,000 data/sec
  • Both push and pull capability
  • Export gauge memory or save continuous data to USB flash drives
  • 1,000 Data memory
  • Ergonomic design with non-slip grips, heavy duty metal construction
  • USB (virtual COM port), RS-232C, Digimatic and analog outputs
  • 200% Overload capacity (overload indicator flashes beyond 108% FS)
  • Display force and displacement data with Imada FA test stand
  • Kit includes, full set of attachments, ZT Logger data acquisition software, USB cable, AC adapter/charger, calibration cert traceable to NIST and carrying case.

ZTA Digital Force Gauges feature a brand new intuitive user interface with easy-to-use menus. Select units, reverse the display, set high/low setpoints, and set all other functions using plain language menus.

The ZTA Digital Force Gauge has an electro luminescent OLED display. The vibrant display shows force value, unit, and peak, and can be configured with additional user-selectable data including memory data, +NG count, high/low setpoints, 1st and 2nd peaks, displacement value (using Imada test stand with FA option), etc.

Color-coded LED indicators alert the user to Go/NoGo conditions. Orange lights for less than low setpoint, green lights between high and low, and red for over the high.

Process and transmit 2,000 actual data per second, not just the peak from a high sampling rate.

ZTA Additional Features

  • Display force and displacement data with Imada FA test stand
  • Export gauge memory or save continuous data to USB flash drives

USB Software Capabilities
All new ZTS and ZTA gauges include the device driver and ZT Logger data acquisition software. ZT Logger can download data from the gauge memory or capture a continuous stream of data at 10 data/second. Zero the gauge or capture data while at the computer. All gauge programming can be set and saved from the software.

Optional Force Recorder Data Acquisition Software is designed to capture up to 2,000 data per second. No competitors’ gauges come close to this speed! Other functions include, gauge programming, graph overlay feature, automatic statistics generation and force vs. displacement graphing (Pro version with ZTA and Imada FA test stand required).
