Dillon ED-Xtreme Dynamometer

This First addition of the EDX was huge success only to be outdone by the EDX RED, the new standard in Dynamometers.

Building a tension dynamometer that can survive real-world punishment requires great engineering. This is where Dillon’s experience shines through. The team assigned to the EDxtreme Dillon Dynamometer drew on a depth of industrial application knowledge and conducted extensive 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 anodized 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  readings are essential to proper weighing and tensions measurement. 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 accuracy mode of 1 part in 5000 provides the level of readability needed for refined weighing.

Xtreme ease

• Exclusive SOFTKEY interface – Dillon  has eliminated confusing menus for faster setup for the dynomometer and simplified 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 back lit display for low light conditions.

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