FORCE MEASUREMENT EQUIPMENT

EDXtreme Red Dynamometer

Guesswork is not acceptable – failure is not an option. When you have people working
around high tension cables and massive loads, there is no room for error. Complete
confidence in the strength and the accuracy of your measurement tools is a must.
Since 1937, Dillon Dynamometers have been chosen for the jobs where only the best
will do. Now, Dillon has once again lifted the performance bar and set the standard for
others to follow. Dynamometers

Uncompromising and adaptable
The EDXtreme exemplifies the trademark precision and rugged construction of Dillon
dynamometers. Its highly refined design draws on the inherent strengths of premium-
grade materials to achieve a 5:1 minimum factor of safety.*
While the EDXtreme may be configured for something as simple as a digital
hanging scale, it offers a higher level of intelligence. With user-defined functions and
sophisticated communication options, the EDXtreme readily adapts to multi-tasking
operations or multi-link systems capable of monitoring a series of critical stress points
from a single location - it is the definition of application versatility.

Xtreme engineering
Building a precision instrument that can survive real-world punishment requires
precise engineering. This is where Dillon’s experience shines through. Our engineers
have drawn upon their collective mechanical, electrical and component experience to
achieve the highest structural integrity.
• Capacity – 250 lbf to 550,00 lbf / 1000 kgf to 250,000 kgf
• 7:1 factor of safety* – This measure of strength and safety is maintained by most
capacities. Computer modeling confirms the low stress and long product life that is
inherent in the EDXtreme design.
* Models 5T and below feature a 7:1 safety factory. Models 10T- to 50T feature a 5:1 safety factor. Models 75T
or higher feature a 4:1 safety factor.
• Superior strength and corrosion resistance – High capacity models are
constructed of powder coated aircraft-quality alloy steel. Lower capacity models are
powder coated aircraft-quality aluminum.
• Retained hardware – Allows permanent attachment of centering spacers, which
eliminates fumbling during high capacity rigging
• NEMA 4X/IP68 – The EDXtreme is clearly the choice for reliability in any
environment – in-plant or out on the job site
• On board storage (Accumulation lift and store, push button, and continuous)

Xtreme accuracy
High resolution and accurate repeatable readings are essential to proper weighing.
The higher standards set for the EDXtreme meant taking the time to ensure that
material characteristics, load element design and strain gauge mesh perfectly. The result
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 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 along with multiple lines or reeving.
• Wide-angle, backlit LCD – Provides improved readability over a wider viewing
angle and has backlighting for low light conditions.
• Battery operation – The EDXtreme is powered by two standard C-cell batteries.
Batteries are easily accessible for fast replacement.
