Specifications
The IEM Electronic Wheel Diameter Gauge enables operators to generate accurate wheel circumference or diameter readings.
Using the Model D16 gauge, it is practical to monitor wheel diameter variations during routine scheduled maintenance inspections while the wheel is still mounted on the car or locamotive. The measurement of the diameter is calculated from three data points and shown on the digital display. The Diameter Gauge will quickly measure worn wheel diameters to within 1/2 a tape and can verify the reliability of wheel truing operations.
Key Features and Benefits:
- Durable: Gauges are built for the railway environment; they are built to withstand high impacts, extended temperature ranges, and the grease and steel dust that permeate railroads, yards and shops.
- Compact: The Diameter Gauge is small enough to fit on virtually all locomotive and transit wheels.
- Fully Portable: It weighs less than 5 pounds and is battery operated with a charge that will last through eight hours.
- Flexible: The gauge can be preset to measure wheels as small as 22 inches in diameter or as large as 44 inches. A choice is mounting the brackets allows the operator to reference the gauge from the front of the back faced of the wheel.
