CENTOR First Force measurement Accurate and simple force measurement Simple and yet complete, the CENTOR First uses  efficient  technology  to  simplify  force measurements, in tension and compression. A  big  display  shows  the  force  measured  in tension or compression in the unit selected by  the  operator  :  newtons,  kilograms  or pounds. The  bar  graph  completes  the  measurement. The  3  keys  make  it  very  easy  to use this force gauge and access the essential functions: measurement of the peak tension or compression value, resetting to zero, and changing  the  measuring  units.  It  is  an  ideal tool  for  basic  tests  during  production.  Its metal  casing,  protected  by  an  elastomer overmould, gives it exceptional strength. The internal sensor stands up to an overload of 200% of its maximum capacity. Simple, precise,  robust,  supplied  with  its  own  carrying case,  mains  adaptor  and  certificate.  Ready for use, it is the basic tool for force measurement.
