Rated 2 out of 5 by from Issues in Reading Rates The load cell is easy to use. But, there is an issue in choosing the number of reading per second. For example, using 0.1 reading per sec is the same rate as 10 reading per sec. Which is very inconvenient and so the maximum time to record the data is 1 hour and 20 mins only. In addition, the load cell came with a CD that is supposed to include the software that read it. But, the software did not run.

What is the lowest force that the DFG35-0.12 Model can measure? I assume that 0.12 lbf is the highest it can measure.

Asked by: CMines
The measurement range of DFG35-0.12 is 0.0 to 0.12 lbf in both tension and compression. Display resolution is 0.0001 lbf.

Does this come with a calibration certificate?

Asked by: The Great Why
Hello, Thank you for reaching out to Omega Engineering, the digital force gauge does not come with a calibration certificate. The remote load cell comes preset for use with the DFG-RS3 model , but you will not get a calibration certificate.
