Transducers
The TorqueMate® Plus can be used with 1 to 4 mv/v transducers. Simply assign a code number to the
transducer (1-15) and calibrate it with dead weights (True Cal), or enter the known mv/v at full scale
and the range (Fast Cal). The TorqueMate® Plus will store the calibration data in memory for that trans-
ducer under the code number you assigned.
SELECTING TRANSDUCER CABLES
A cable with a 10 pin modular plug, which goes into the TorqueMate® Plus, and bare wires on the other
end is not included with the TorqueMate® Plus. This cable is available, upon request, at additional cost.
The part number is 065145. The correct part number for an RTSXA (with Angle and 10 pin Bendix) is
065151.
If you have a transducer that has a special connector Mountz can make a custom connector for the
TorqueMate® Plus. For example, if your transducer has a Bendix type connector you can order a cable
with the TorqueMate® Plus 10 pin connector on one end and a Bendix connector on the other. (See list
of cables below)
Calibration Notes
When using the
Fast Cal
option on the TorqueMate® Plus, the TorqueMate® Plus will take the mv/v
entry that you manually programmed during transducer calibration, and adjust the gain and span auto-
matically. For example, if the transducer has a mv/v signal of 2.010 at a full range of 50 lbf.ft. then the
TorqueMate® Plus will assume when it senses 2.010 mv/v of output from the transducer that a torque of
50 lbf.ft. is being applied (the display will show 50 lbf.ft.).
When using the
True Cal
option, the TorqueMate® Plus will take an
actual
reading of the output of the
transducer when certified dead weights are applied.
