METER – ROPE TENSION

QUICK CHECK ”RED” TENSION METER

The Dillon Quick-Check ”RED” Tension Meter quickly measures
tension in cable guardrails, guy lines and overhead wires. It installs, measures and removes in
seconds. The digital load cell is highly accurate and requires no lookup or correction tables.
The Fastest Cable Tension Meter

The Dillon Quick-Check can be placed on a cable, measure its tension, and removed in under five seconds! There
are no complex lookup tables, no conversion charts. The operator can quickly select from 20 different wire sizes
and types stored in quick-Check’s memory. The Check-Tensioning mode graphically displays the current and
target tensions for extremely quick setting of line tension. Even the infrequent battery changes are quick.
Broad Application
The quick-Check can be employed in many industries to ensure proper
tensioning. Typical applications include tower and stack guy wires, pre-
tensioned cable barriers, bridges, elevators, winch rope, prestressed
concrete, aircraft cables, overhead railway transit wires, fall arrest systems
and utilities. TEST, MEASUREMENT & DYNAMOMETERS
