Dillon Dynamometer ED-Xtreme

Xtreme engineering

Building a precision instrument that can survive real-world punishment requires expert engineering. This is where Dillon’s experience comes through. The engineers assigned to the EDxtreme Dillon Dynamometer drew on decades of industrial application knowledge and conducted exhaustive materials testing to achieve the highest structural integrity.

• Superior strength and corrosion resistance – High capacity models are constructed of electroless nickel-plated aircraft-quality alloy steel. Lower capacity models are anoized aircraft-quality aluminum.

• 5:1 factor of safety – This measure of strength and safety is maintained at all capacities. Computer modeling confirms the low stress and long product life that is inherent in the

Xtreme design.

• Retained hardware - Allows permanent attachment of centering spacers, which eliminates fumbling during high capacity rigging.

• NEMA 4X/IP55 – The EDxtreme Dillon Dynamometer is clearly the choice for reliability in any environment – in-plant or out on the job site.

Xtreme accuracy: 0.1%

High resolution and accurate repeatable readings are essential to proper weighing. The higher standards set for the EDxtreme Dillon Dynamometer meant taking the time to ensure that material characteristics, load element design, and strain gage meshed perfectly. The result of that effort is a typical accuracy of 0.1% of full scale capacity. The enhanced resolution mode of 1 part in 5000 provides the level of readability needed for refined weighing.

Xtreme ease

• Exclusive SOFTKEY interface – Dillon Dynamometer has eliminated confusing menus for faster setup and simple operation. In addition to lbf, kgf and Newtons, programmable functions can correct for gravitational variations and allow the use of custom units of measurement.

• Wide-angle LCD – Provides improved readability over a wider viewing angle and is available with backlighting for low light conditions.

• Battery operation – The EDxtreme is powered by two standard C-cell batteries. Batteries are easily accessible for fast replacement.
