Dillon EDX-Blue Dynamometer 10T x 25,000 lb x 10,000 kg

The EDXtreme Blue 10T is engineered for wireless force measurement applications requiring 25,000-pound capacity with mobile device integration. Primary applications include major transmission line construction, heavy industrial operations, marine and offshore applications, and oil & gas operations where maximum wireless capacity provides operational advantages. The FCC-certified Bluetooth® connectivity makes it ideal for maximum-capacity operations requiring real-time data sharing, remote monitoring, and instant documentation generation directly from smartphones or tablets.

The EDXtreme Blue 10T provides 25,000-pound capacity—double the 5T model's 11,000 pounds—and features robust steel construction instead of aluminum for maximum durability. The 10T model has a 5:1 safety factor (vs. 7:1 for smaller models) but maintains identical Bluetooth® technology, mobile app functionality, and ±0.1% accuracy. The 16-pound weight reflects the steel construction required for maximum-capacity applications, making it the most robust model in the Blue series.

EDXtreme Blue models feature exclusive Bluetooth® wireless connectivity with mobile app control and integrated LCDs, while EDXtreme Red models provide traditional RS-232/USB interfaces with Communicator II compatibility. Blue models excel for single-point measurements with mobile device integration, instant data export, and simplified operation. Red models are designed for multi-point operations, hardwired communication systems, and integration with existing data acquisition equipment. Blue models cannot connect to Communicator II systems or coordinate with multiple dynamometers simultaneously.

No, EDXtreme Blue models are designed for single-point measurement with one-to-one mobile device pairing. The mobile app connects to one dynamometer at a time and cannot coordinate multiple units or display totalized loads. Environmental obstacles and Bluetooth® device limitations make them unsuitable for all applications requiring coordinated monitoring. For multi-point lifting operations requiring coordinated monitoring, the EDXtreme Red series with Communicator II provides simultaneous monitoring of up to 50 dynamometers with totalized readings and synchronized control.

The Dillon EDX mobile app enables instant data export in PDF or CSV formats directly from your smartphone or tablet. Generate professional reports with timestamps, peak readings, and measurement data, then email or share results immediately from the job site. CSV files integrate seamlessly with Excel for detailed analysis, while PDF reports provide ready-to-use documentation for project files, regulatory compliance, or customer deliverables. The high-speed peak capture (10Hz/100Hz/1,000Hz) provides detailed analysis capabilities for dynamic loading events up to 25,000 pounds.

The EDXtreme Blue 10T requires Bluetooth® 4.0+ compatibility with Android 6.0+ or iOS 10+ devices. Compatible devices include iPhone 6 or newer, iPad Air or newer, and most Android smartphones/tablets manufactured after 2015. The free Dillon EDX mobile app (available via Google Play and Apple App Store) provides full functionality, including real-time display, data logging, PDF/CSV export, and complete configuration control. Devices must support Bluetooth® Low Energy for an optimal 400-foot communication range.

The EDXtreme Blue 10T delivers ±0.1% accuracy (±22 lbs uncertainty) compared to ±0.5% for mechanical dynamometers (±110 lbs uncertainty), a 5x improvement in precision for maximum-capacity applications. The electronic load cell technology with digital signal processing eliminates mechanical friction, wear, and temperature-induced errors. Superior linearity (±0.1%) and minimal hysteresis (±0.1%) ensure consistent accuracy that meets ASME B30.26, ISO 376, and ASTM E74 standards for professional maximum-capacity force measurement applications.

The EDXtreme Blue 10T continues measuring and features an integrated 128 x 64 dot-graphic LCD with 6 digits, 1.0" high characters for local operation. The display updates at 2 Hz and includes annunciators and softkeys for basic operation without mobile connectivity. However, data logging, export capabilities, and advanced configuration require an active mobile app connection. For critical maximum-capacity operations, maintain charged backup devices or power banks to ensure continuous wireless functionality and data capture.

No, the EDXtreme Blue 10T is not certified for explosive atmospheres (Class I, Division 1 or ATEX environments). The electronic components and Bluetooth® radio do not meet intrinsically safe requirements. The operating temperature range of -4°F to 158°F (-20°C to 70°C) covers most industrial applications but excludes extreme Arctic conditions where mechanical dynamometers may be required. Environmental obstacles affect Bluetooth® performance, and these devices are not suitable for all applications requiring wireless communication.

The EDXtreme Blue 10T uses two C-cell alkaline batteries (included), providing 400+ hours of continuous operation without backlight activation. Battery life reduces when using the LCD backlight or intensive Bluetooth® communication. The alkaline battery design eliminates charging requirements and provides reliable operation in extreme temperature conditions. Low-battery warnings through both the mobile app and LCD display provide advance notice for planned battery replacement, ensuring uninterrupted operation during critical maximum-capacity applications.

The Dillon EDX mobile app is completely free with no subscription fees or in-app purchases. The app includes real-time force display, high-speed data logging (10Hz/100Hz/1,000Hz), export capabilities (PDF/CSV), unit conversion, alarm configuration, and complete dynamometer setup control. Regular app updates provide enhanced features and compatibility improvements at no additional cost. All core functionality is included—no premium features or paid upgrades required for professional maximum-capacity operation.

The mobile app provides comprehensive alarm configuration, including high/low force thresholds, rate-of-change alerts, and time-based warnings optimized for maximum-capacity operations. Set visual and audible alarms directly through the app interface with user-defined setpoints up to 25,000 pounds. Alarms trigger both on the mobile device and the integrated LCD for redundant notification. Custom alarm profiles can be saved and applied to different applications or operational requirements. Peak capture rates (10Hz/100Hz/1,000Hz) enable detection of brief overloads and dynamic loading events.

The mobile app and integrated LCD enable instant unit conversion between lbs, kgs, and Newtons without recalibration or setup changes. The 10T model displays 25,000 lbs, 10,000 kgf, or 100,000 N capacity depending on selected units. Toggle units in real-time during measurements to accommodate international project requirements or customer preferences. The conversion accuracy maintains the ±0.1% specification across all unit types, ensuring consistent precision regardless of display units.

Industry standard calibration intervals are typically 12 months, though specific requirements vary by application and regulatory demands. The EDXtreme Blue's digital stability and temperature compensation typically maintain accuracy longer than mechanical alternatives. Factors affecting calibration frequency include loading cycles, environmental exposure, and accuracy requirements for ASME B30.26 or ASTM E74 compliance. The mobile app can be configured to provide calibration due date reminders, and Dynamic Measurement Systems offers calibration reminder services.

Yes, the EDXtreme Blue 10T features an integrated 128 x 64 dot-graphic LCD with 6 digits, 1.0" (26 mm) high characters for standalone operation. The display includes annunciators and softkeys for basic force measurement without mobile device connectivity. However, advanced features, including data logging, export capabilities, unit conversion, alarm configuration, and peak capture rate selection, require a mobile app connection. For applications requiring complete standalone operation, EDXtreme Red models provide comprehensive front-panel control and display capabilities.

The EDXtreme Blue 10T measures larger than other Blue models to accommodate the steel construction and maximum capacity requirements. The unit weight is 16 lbs (7.3 kg), with included forged shackles bringing the total weight to 38 lbs (17 kg). Shipping weight, including heavy-duty transport case and accessories, is 53 lbs (24 kg) in a 21" x 11" x 23" shipping container. The steel construction provides maximum durability while maintaining the 5:1 safety factor (110,000 lbs ultimate capacity) required for professional maximum-capacity rigging applications.
