FG-7000TA Digital Torque Gauge
Operation Manual
Operators should wear protection such as a mask and gloves in case
pieces or components break away from the unit under test.
Whether the unit is ON or OFF, DO NOT exceed the capacity of the
sensor. NEVER exceed 120% of the rated capacity, or the torque sensor
will be damaged. At 110% of the rated capacity the display will flash
a warning.
If mounting FG-7000T Series Digital Torque Gauges, use M4 mounting
screws with a maximum insertion depth of 7 mm into the gauge. Hand
tightens mounting screws, DO NOT use tools. Do not use damaged
clamp.
Measure in line torque only. DO NOT attempt to measure forces at an
angle to the sensor – damage to sensor may result.
Do not attempt to repair or alter this instrument. Warranty will be voided
and damage to the unit may result.
Use and store within the stated temperature and humidity ranges, or
damage and failure may result.
If not using this instrument for extended periods of time, remove the
batteries to prevent potential battery leakage from causing product
damage.
DO NOT use tools to over torque the connection adapter. Hand-tighten
only so damage does not occur.
The FG-7000TA Series digital torque gauges provide testing flex-
ibility with their external torque sensor input. Torque sensors with
the adustable clamp adapter are immediately recognized when
connected to the display base. Units are available for your specific
testing needs in 1 N-m (9 in-lb) 5 N-m (44 in-lb) & 10 N-m (88 in-lb)
capacities. The adjustable clamping mechanism enables flexible
test size operation from approximately 0.56 to 2" (14 to 50 mm)
diameters. Four selectable modes of operation include: Track
mode for live readings, Peak mode for displaying the maximum
reading, First Peak where only the initial peak is recorded once a
decrease is sensed and Preset which initiates user-programmed
tolerance alarms for go/no go testing. The display has two se-
lectable operations, numerical view with directional bar graph or
graphical view with directional bar graph. In graphical view when
alarm tolerances are set, the process is plotted in relation to the
upper and lower limit graph lines. Combined with the go/no go
icons, a simple pass/fail determination is recognized. These high-
tech instruments can data log a reading at the push of a button
for simple data acquisition or be set to continuous data storage.
Data can be viewed on the screen, sent to the optional printer, or
loaded to be analyzed and graphed on the free software program.
The 1,000 point memory with definable groups allows for multiple
tests to be recorded and easily separated upon loading. In addi-
tion, the comparator output can be set up for integration of the
instrument into a quality system for repetitive testing such as on
a production line. The large back-lit, 180° auto-reversible display,
CW/CCW directional bar graph, combined with the dual labeled
key pad allows for usage of the gauge in various positions while
still being able to easily view and operate. These various features
make the FG-7000T the ideal torque instrument for various appli-
cations such as closing or opening analysis of containers, valves
and door hardware, failure or destructive torque testing, or almost
any torque testing requirement involving incoming quality inspec-
tion, finished goods testing to R&D.
