Xtreme engineering
Building a precision instrument that can survive real-world punishment requires masterful engineering. This is where Dillon’s experience shines through. The engineers assigned to the EDXtreme drew on a depth 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 powder coated aircraft-quality alloy steel. Lower capacity models are powder coated aircraft-quality aluminum.
- 5:1 factor of safety* – This measure of strength and safety is maintained at all capacities. Computer modeling confi rms the low stress and long product life that is inherent in the EDXtreme design.
- Retained hardware – Allows permanent attachment of centering spacers, which eliminates fumbling during high capacity rigging.
- NEMA 4X/IP55 – The EDXtreme is clearly the choice for reliability in any environment – in-plant or out on the job site.
- CE – Approval on all capacities excluding 550K.
Xtreme accuracy: 0.1%
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 meshed perfectly. The result of that eff ort 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 refi ned weighing
