Description
Magtrol’s In-Line Torque Transducers provide extremely
accurate torque and speed measurement over a very broad range.
Each model has an integrated conditioning electronic module
providing a 0 to ±10 VDC torque output and an open collector
speed output. Magtrol Torque Transducers are very reliable,
providing high overload protection, excellent long term stability
and high noise immunity.
All transducer models employ our unique non-contact
differential transformer torque measuring technology. This
measuring technology offers many benefits, most notably that
no electronic components rotate during operation.
To provide customers with several price/performance options,
Magtrol offers two torque transducer models: high accuracy
(TM series) and high speed with high accuracy (TMHS).
Each transducer consists of a hardened stainless steel shaft
with smooth or splined shaft ends, an anodized aluminium
housing containing the guide bearings and an electronic
measurement conditioner. The integrated electronic circuit,
supplied by single DC voltage, provides torque and speed
signals without any additional amplifier. The transducer is
a stand-alone measuring chain. Connections are made by
means of a 6-pole male connector mounted on the housing.
A removable aluminium base, delivered as standard, allows
fixed mounting of the transducer.
