New Digital Tension Load Dynamometer from Measurement Systems International

    SEATTLE, WA, September 28, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- According to MSI National Sales Manager, Tim Carroll, "The Dyna-Link series digital dynamometer was first introduced to the industrial marketplace in 1992 and since become a world-renown standard tool for tension load monitoring. Now in its second generation, the MSI-7300 Dyna-Link 2 incorporates a newly developed and highly integrated MSI ScaleCore measurement module. The integrated ScaleCore provides the latest in instrumentation technology enhancing the product's operating feature set and continuing the product's life cycle throughout another decade."

The new Dyna-Link 2 employing MSI's ScaleCore technology provides 24-bit A/D conversion and precision 0.1% accuracy with standard 2500 or optional 5000 division resolution. More efficient processing power allows extended continuous operating time to over 200 hours from two alkaline flashlight batteries. A large 5 digit 1.22 inch (31mm) Liquid Crystal Display provides a user-friendlier readout and greater viewing range.

A host of standard programmable application features include; unit selection for displaying in lb, kg, KN, tons and metric tons. Programmable control for two Set Points and a Peak Hold feature provide control and versatility for nearly all tension load-monitoring applications. Product options and accessories include audible set point alarm and portable transport cases.

Dyna-Link 2 features a new packaging design and material specifications providing a lighter and more portable tension-monitoring tool with an additionally enhanced environmental rating to NEMA 4/IP 65. The Dyna-Link load sensor is machined from 2024 aircraft quality aluminum and finished with corrosion resistant anodizing across a standard capacity range of 1000 lb (500kg) through 100,000 lb (50,000kg). All capacities maintain a safe overload rating of 200% and ultimate rating of 500%. Optional higher capacity units are also available on request. Each capacity Dyna-Link is designed to interface with industry standard Crosby shackles for easy field rigging.
