Product Description

TI-1500B force measuring indicator overview

The TI-1500B is an NTEP certified industrial grade force measuring indicator housed in a durable NEMA 12 ABS enclosure. Unlike general-purpose weighing indicators, the TI-1500B is designed specifically for force measurement applications — including material performance testing, peak value measurement, and strain gage load cell testing. It features an independent 4-channel configuration, a large 1.0" high-brightness 6-digit LED display that is easy to read from a distance, and up to 400,000 internal counts of resolution. Force units include KGF, KN, LBF, and mV/V alongside standard lb and kg. Peak hold is built in as a dedicated front panel function. An internal power supply and full-duplex RS-232C port round out a capable and straightforward force measurement package. The TI-1500B manual is available in the Data Sheets tab above.

Key features

The TI-1500B is purpose-built for force measurement — offering capabilities and force-specific units that go well beyond what a standard weighing indicator can provide.

1
Independent 4-channel configuration
Supports an independent 4-channel configuration allowing multiple load cells or force sensors to be monitored separately on a single indicator. Each channel can be configured independently, making the TI-1500B suited for multi-point force measurement and testing applications.
2
Peak hold with dedicated front panel key
Peak hold is a dedicated front panel function — not buried in a menu — allowing operators to instantly capture and hold the maximum force value during a test cycle. Essential for impact testing, proof load verification, and dynamic force measurement applications.
3
Force-specific units including mV/V
Supports KGF, KN, LBF, and mV/V in addition to standard lb and kg — units that are not available on general-purpose weighing indicators. The mV/V display mode is particularly useful for direct load cell calibration verification and strain gage testing.
4
400,000 internal count resolution
With up to 400,000 internal counts of A/D resolution and a display range up to 999,999 with random input settings, the TI-1500B delivers the measurement precision required for material testing and force characterization applications.
5
Large 1.0" high-brightness LED display
The large 1.0" 6-digit high-brightness LED display is easy to read from a distance in testing lab and production floor environments. Full front panel configuration means setup and calibration require no PC or external software.
6
Internal power supply and RS-232 output
Operates on 100-230 VAC with an internal power supply — no external adapter required. Full-duplex RS-232C serial port enables data output to computers and printers for test data logging, reporting, and process integration.

Technical notes

Installation and connectivity

The TI-1500B connects to any standard mV/V load cell or force sensor and drives up to eight 350Ω load cells simultaneously. It operates on 100-230 VAC via its internal power supply. A full-duplex RS-232C serial port supports data output to computers and printers for logging and reporting.

Supported units of measure
lb (pounds-force)
kg (kilograms-force)
KGF (kilogram-force)
KN (kilonewtons)
LBF (pounds-force)
mV/V (direct sensor output)
