Model M5I Advanced Digital Force / Torque Indicator
Manufactured by Mark-10
The M5I advanced digital force / torque indicator comes with exclusive Plug & Test® technology. This means all calibration and configuration data is saved within the sensor’s smart connector (not the indicator), allowing for true interchangeability.
It’s designed to work with a wide range of Mark-10 remote force and torque sensors, such as the Series R06 Wire Crimp Pull Sensors.
This advanced torque and force indicator shares its menu structure and more specifications with the Series 5 Digital Force Gauges. On-board data memory for up to 1,000 readings is included, while the super-fast 7,000 Hz sampling rate produces accurate results, even for quick-action tests.
Please Note: Sensors are sold separately.
Benefits
- High-speed 500 Hz data output rate. This includes statistical calculations with output to a PC.
- Large, backlit graphics LCD displays large, legible characters.
- Simple menu navigation allows for quick access to the indicator’s many features and configurable parameters.
- Sensor password protection prevents use of an unauthorised sensor.
- Integrated set points with indicators and outputs are ideal for pass-fail testing and for triggering external devices such as an alarm, or relay.
- Analogue load bar is shown on the display for graphical representation of applied force or torque.
- Averaging mode addresses the need to record the average load over time
- External trigger mode makes switch activation testing simple and accurate.
- Data can be transferred to a PC or data collectors via USB, RS-232, Mitutoyo (Digimatic), or analogue outputs.
- MESUR®Lite data acquisition software is included, which tabulates continuous or single point data.
- Data saved in the indicator’s memory can be downloaded in bulk.
- One-click export to Excel easily allows for further data manipulation.
- Five selectable units of measurement.
- Configurable audio alarms and key tones.
- CE marked.
- Three year warranty.
- Supported by AML in the UK.
The M5I Force / Torque Indicator includes the following accessories:
- 1 x carrying case
- 1 x USB cable
- 1 x AC adapter
- 1 x battery
- 1 x certificate of calibration without data (Please Note: The instrument includes a built-in calibration mode that can be accessed by the user, but only after entering the provided passcode).
Important: Mark-10 equipment (other than the gauges) features open-access calibration. This means calibration adjustments are not locked out, giving you the freedom to use any standard-compliant calibration laboratory of your choice, saving you time and reducing lifetime ownership costs.
