All moving parts feature maintenance-free linear guide bearings for easy adjustment of both vertical and horizontal wheel settings.
Ranger's DST30P Wheel Balancer—Achieving Balance in a Single Spin
The DST30P efficiently and precisely calibrates wheel and tire configurations with remarkable accuracy. Similar to the DST-2420 wheel balancer, the DST30P accommodates wheels up to 30” in diameter. It incorporates many of the same components as the DST-2420 but introduces a significant enhancement— the incorporation of the 64-tooth magnetic transducer encoder from the DST-64T. This integration into the smaller unit ensures minimal yet incredibly precise wheel weight placements.
The larger encoder boasts precision-cut square teeth, swiftly converting rotary position to a digital electronic signal, achieving maximum profile and top-dead-center positioning. As part of our commitment to catering to shops and garages of all sizes, we have reduced the unit’s footprint by narrowing the chassis.
For those seeking more precise measurements without the digital extras, add-ons, and increased body size of the DST-64T, the DST30P emerges as the ideal wheel balancer for your shop. It presents a cost-effective hybrid unit delivering the most accurate readings attainable from a wheel balancer.
Direct-Drive:
The Direct-Axis drive system ensures the smooth operation of the DST30P over time. A single belt connects the motor and unbalance sensor, eliminating most maintenance costs throughout the extended service life of your wheel balancer.
The DST30P doubles the potential placement for wheel weights while maintaining a space-conscious and highly cost-effective shop solution. Standard dynamic, static, and ALU balancing modes, featuring dual-plane calibration, cater to all OEM configurations and performance wheels.
Ranger’s proprietary Digital Sensor Technology incorporates a 16-digit digital sensor processor and single-chip technology, ensuring better speed and accuracy in your readings. This level of sophisticated technology is crucial for proper balancing of OEM and performance wheels, making it imperative that any chosen wheel balancer is fully equipped to service these specialized wheel types.
The single-chip circuit board architecture enhances performance and reliability over multi-chip installations, reducing latency and substantially boosting device throughput. The speedy, dedicated hyper-transport protocol facilitates faster communication between data and the micro-processor. Single-chip boards also consume less power and dissipate heat more effectively.
Multi-directional Quartz Piezoelectric Load Sensors:
Dual-component piezoelectric quartz load sensors and a digital rotation encoder measure longitudinal, transversal, and shear effects for multi-directional force unbalance detection. These piezoelectric force sensors, the most sensitive ever made, offer superior stability and fatigue resistance for an unlimited service life with your wheel balancer. High-rigidity quartz crystal sensors provide high-frequency detection in all three measured directions.
Quick & Precise Setup:
A diverse array of hardened-steel mounting cones accommodates virtually all wheel types, including most light trucks and SUVs. A rubber "quick-nut" bell adapter, with a non-marring rear cone mount pressure cup, securely holds mounted wheels in place without causing damage during balancing procedures.
Mounting Cone Package:
The DST30P wheel balancer tooling package includes car and light truck cones, as well as a heavy-duty truck cone. This package comprises three "smaller" cones: 1.75” - 2.75”, 2.75” - 3.50”, and 3.50” - 4.25”, along with one truck cone 4.50” - 5.00”. Previously an optional accessory, the 4.5" - 5.00" truck cone package is now standard. Additionally, a larger double-sided centering Truck Cone Kit is sold separately, accommodating hub sizes 4.75" - 6.75".
Tape Weight Feeder:
A tape weight feeder is conveniently located on a side shelf integrated into the wheel balancer. The Ranger easy-to-peel adhesive tape weight ensures you never lose or misplace it.
64-Tooth Encoder Improves Automatic Weight Optimization:
The weight calculations on the DST30P wheel balancer are twice as accurate as the DST-2420, thanks to the 64-tooth magnetic transducer encoder. This enhancement allows for more precise placement readouts, making it easier to achieve maximum profile and top-dead-center positioning. This translates to using less weight while saving time, ultimately boosting your bottom line.
Full-Tilt Display Panel:
The touch-pad display panel on the DST-2420 wheel balancer has been elevated to a tower-style design for the DST30P. This improvement offers greater flexibility in your work. The extended, fully adjustable display avoids glare, ensuring clear readouts, and provides a more ergonomic experience for differently-abled operators during tire and wheel configuration calibration.
LED Rolling Wheel Weight Displays:
Highly visible LED displays show weight positions accurately when the mounted wheel is rolled to top-dead-center. The improved encoder wheel on the DST30P makes its LED display more sensitive and accurate than ever before.
