KERN Digital force gauge FH 200

KERN Digital Force Gauge FH 200

The KERN FH 200 is a high-precision digital force gauge designed for professional force measurement applications up to 200 N. With a resolution of 0.1 N and a measuring frequency of 2 kHz, this compact and lightweight device delivers accurate and fast readings, making it ideal for tensile and compression testing in various industrial and laboratory settings.

Its rotatable backlit display ensures convenient readability from any angle, while its robust feature set—including peak/track modes, limit-setting alarms, and a statistics kit—makes it a versatile tool for quality control and product testing. The device is compatible with all SAUTER test stands up to 5 kN and includes both USB and RS-232 interfaces as standard for data transfer and power supply.
