Model 280

ProScale Model 280 Measuring System

ProScale Model 280 shown with Guide Clip

The ProScale Model 280 uses Incremental inductive measurement technology.
This system is an affordable choice for most common measuring applications.
It offers a higher slew rate (60ips) than the Model 250 system.
* The guide clip shown above is used to move the ENCODER.

Features:

No Gap to Set: All ProScale Encoders are "captive" on the measuring Scale so you never need to worry about setting or resetting the Encoder gap.
Battery Operation: Most Readouts available for use with ProScale systems operate on 2AA alkaline batteries or 1 long life Lithium battery.
High Speed Encoder: The encoder can be moved up to 60 inches per second.
High Noise Immunity: With ProScale Inductive technology,, the likelihood of motor electrical noise, magnetic fields, or power transients affecting the measurement accuracy is reduced.
Wireless Flexibility: ProScale Encoders and ProScale Readouts can be equipped with our 2 way ProRF wireless data systems.
Scalability: The Model 280 supports multiple Encoders and Readouts operating simultaneously on the same Scale.
One year warranty for defects in workmanship.
