This makes it extremely easy to balance the tensions of cables in a set of elevator cables or any other multiple-line array of tension cables, such as tower and stack guy wires, crane rigging sets and platform lifts, etc. The digital display also shows the average tension of the set as well as the total tensile load. The Dillon AWT15-500844 Quick Balance installs easily, measures cable tension up to 10,000 lbs directly, stores readings and is removed from the cable in seconds. No lookup or reference to correction or conversion charts is required. Writing down measurements for comparison purposes is also not required. Balancing the tensions on a set of cables takes minutes instead of hours and can be done by a single person, working alone, instead of two or three. Features DIRECT READING -- no reference to conversion charts requiredMinimum training time required. Significant labor and time savings over alternative methodsView tensions on all cables in the set, average tension and total tensile load on the back-lit display - instantly. Display also features full text promptsBalance tensions in multiple lines in minutesAccommodates wide range of cable types and sizes, from 3/16” to 1”Factory-provided 5-line display for four (4) cables can be optionally expanded to as many as 16 cables by keypad entry and scrollingOne (1) set of sheaves for wire rope sizes from ¼” to ¾” is included.Other size sheaves are optionally availableCalibration for three (3) wire rope sizes is included. They are for steel, 1/2", 9/16” and 5/8”, all 8x19.
