EPX-T Crane Scale

EPX-T Crane Scale: High-Capacity Suspended Load Measurement

The EPX-T crane scale is a rugged hanging scale designed to measure tensile forces and suspended loads directly on a lifting line, from 300 kg up to 20 tonnes. Also known as a hanging scale or dynamometer crane scale, it combines an aeronautical aluminum body with a fully digital, touch-sensitive display for reliable readings in demanding industrial and logistics environments.

Typical applications of the EPX-T crane scale

The EPX-T crane scale is used wherever a suspended or in-line load needs to be measured accurately: lifting operations, load testing of slings and rigging, weighing of suspended goods, and tensile force verification on cables or chains. Its remote control unit and wireless communication allow the operator to read the measurement safely at a distance from the load.

Compared to a fixed platform scale, the EPX-T crane scale's shackle, rotating hook and head ring accessories let it be inserted directly into a lifting chain, making it a practical solution for both laboratories and on-site inspections.

Our EPX-T crane scale is a high-precision measuring instrument designed to meet the requirements of manufacturers and laboratories. Reliable and ergonomic, it allows for highly accurate tensile force measurements. Its clear digital display and advanced features ensure intuitive and efficient use. Suitable for numerous applications, it is the ideal tool for quality control, mechanical testing, and strength testing. Contact us for a quote.

Capacities of the load cell

The EPX-T electronic load cell is available in various capacities:

• EPX-T 3000 daN
• EPX-T 6000 daN
• EPX-T 10 000 daN
• EPX-T 20 000 daN
• EPX-T 25 000 daN

Why choose the EPX-T crane scale?

Unlike a standard bench-top scale, the EPX-T crane scale is built to work in-line, suspended between a lifting hook and the load itself. This makes it the natural choice whenever a measurement has to be taken during an actual lifting or handling operation, rather than on a flat surface. Sectors such as heavy industry, logistics, shipping, construction and offshore operations rely on this type of crane scale to verify that slings, chains, and lifting equipment are used within their rated capacity.

Because every EPX-T crane scale is delivered with a COFRAC-traceable calibration certificate, the readings can be used directly in your quality documentation and safety audits, with a clear chain of traceability back to national reference standards. ACRN also offers an annual recalibration service to keep your EPX-T crane scale within its accuracy specifications over its full service life.

Precision and safety of the EPX-T crane scale

Safety is central to the design of the EPX-T crane scale. The instrument continuously displays the applied load, and its digital electronics allow real-time monitoring so that operators can react before a rated capacity is exceeded. The remote display option means the reading can be taken from a safe distance, away from the suspended load and the lifting zone, reducing risk for the operator during heavy lifting operations.

With capacities ranging from 3 000 daN to 25 000 daN, the EPX-T crane scale covers a wide span of applications, from moderate tensile force verification to full-scale heavy lifting operations at 20 tonnes. Whichever capacity you choose, the EPX-T crane scale keeps the same rugged, aeronautical aluminum housing and the same intuitive touch-sensitive interface, so operators only need to learn the instrument once across your entire fleet of crane scales.
