AP Dynamometer
|
|
|
|
Originally
designed to measure the tension on telephone wires, the Dynamometer has
|
|
proven to have limitless versatility as a
tension and weight measuring instrument. It is
|
|
used
for such diverse jobs as suspended weighing; mounting cables for bridges;
adjusting
|
|
tension
on guy wires; field testing chain, rope, wire – anything requiring precision
force
|
|
or tension measurement.

|
Certificate of Calibration
|
|
An official Certificate of Calibration traceable to NIST,
dated and signed, accompanies
|
|
each new or
factory serviced Dillon Model AP dynamometer. Experienced technicians
|
|
calibrate each instrument on an individual basis making
certain that all parts are
|
|
carefully adjusted and that every unit is within stated
accuracy tolerances before it
|
|
leaves the
factory.
|
|
|
|
Feature for feature-
|
|
Dillon Dynamometer sets the standard.
|
|
Accuracy: +/-0.5% of full scale capacity for precise data.
|
|
Broadest range of capacities and resolutions are certain to
fit your needs.
|
|
Wide temperature range for use in nearly any environment
(-50 to 140šF/ -45 to 60šC).
|
|
Large safety factor for overload protection and long life.
|
|
No batteries required.
|
|
Dial size choice for the best in portability or visibility.
|
|
Anti-parallax dial and pointer produce accurate readings
from any perspective.
|
|
Maximum hand retains peak load point and is easily reset.
|
|
Zero control cancels preset loads (backside).
|
|
High strength case resists heavy blows.
|
|
Generous shackle openings mate with most hooks and
hardware.
|
|
High specification materials on all load components. Heat
treated to tight tolerances.
|
|
Durable powder coat paint provides outstanding protection.
|
|
Offset load beam eases tension measurement.
|
|
Approvals: CE on all capacities excluding 50K.
|
|
|
|
5” (125 mm) diameter AP dynamometer includes a rugged ABS
plastic carry case with
|
|
die-cut foam
inserts. Capacities of 30,000 lb (15,000 kg) and above are shipped in a
|
|
heavy-duty
reinforced plywood crate. An optional steel carry case is available for
|
|
10” (250 mm) diameter dynamometers up to 20,000 lb (10,000 kg)
capacity.
|
|
|
|
Options
|
|
Zero positioning
|
|
The
standard zero position is 9 o’clock for both the 5” and 10” dial sizes. Capacities
up to
|
|
20,000
lb can be supplied with the zero at 12, 3 or 6.
|
|
Klaxon signal alarm
|
|
Mounted
on rear of the Dynamometer and sounds an alarm at a preset load point.
