AP Dynamometer Mechanical Dynamometer

The Dillon AP Mechanical Dynamometer exhibits limitless versatility as a tension, traction and weight measuring instrument.

Full selection of capacities
Available in capacities from 500 to 20,000 kilograms. Models with a Newton or pound scale are optionally available.

Long life
The core of the device is a steel flexing beam. The enclosure is a heavy aluminum alloy case with baked on protective finish. The dial face is sealed and cushioned with a rubber gasket.

Safe for overhead applications--
Most models have a 5:1 ultimate safety factor.

Zero control
Use it like a tare. It can cancel preset load values up to 20% of device capacity.

NIST Traceable The AP Dynamometer comes with a NIST traceable calibration certificate.

Klaxon signal alarm

Mounted on rear of the Dynamometer and sounds an alarm at a preset load point. For capacities through 20,000 pound (10,000 kg) only

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. Photo shows a nonstandard position of 12 o'clock.

Oversized shackle and pin assembly. Available with all AP5 models and up to AP10-20000LB/AP10-10000KG models only. Addition to standard shackle & pin (sold as an accessory at time of order or after sale)

Steel storage case For 10" (250 mm) diameter model AP10-20000LB/AP10-10000KG and lower
