Drag Force Measurement
|
 |
 |
Dynamometers (load meters) are used for force and load control, including drag force measurement, for example: bollard pull test, drag force measurement of rescue vehicles, plows, etc.
RON dynamometers are especially suitable for traction control and force measuring thanks to their following features:

 |
The RON Dynamometer and load cell series offer separation of the load cell and display, i.e. a remote display that can be read by the driver of the vehicle, tug boat or tractor, etc. in his cabin, in comfort and safety.
|

 |
RON dynamometers and load cells are specially adapted for the following applications: Force and load control, force measuring, drag force measurement and traction control in off-shore environments; For example: the bollard pull test.RON systems are rated at IP 65 and two higher sealing levels are available:
|
a) Four special offshore type connectors, in place of the standard ones, which increase the sealing level to IP 67.
|
| b) A higher rating than this is the load cell with an underwater capability option that enables it to be submerged in water (up to 1ft/0.5m), briefly, without causing harm. The sealing level with this option is IP 68.
