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 0VDC to ±10VDC 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 three torque transducer models: basic model 

(TMB Series), high accuracy (TM Series) and high speed with

high accuracy (TMHS).

Each transducer consists of a hardened stainless steel shaft 

with smooth, splined or keyway 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 with TM and TMHS 

models, and as an option for TMB transducers) allows fixed 

mounting of the transducer.

OPERATING PRINCIPLES

The measuring system, based on the principle of a variable, 

torque proportional transformer coupling, consists of two 

concentric cylinders shrunk on the shaft on each side of the 

shaft’s deformation zone, and two concentric coils attached 

to the housing.
Both cylinders have a circularly disposed coinciding row of 

slots and rotate with the shaft inside the coils. An alternating 

current with the frequency of 20 kHz flows through the primary 

coil. When no torque is applied, the slots on the two cylinders 

fail to overlap. When torque is applied, the deformation zone 

undergoes an angular deformation and the slots begin to 

overlap.
Thus a torque-proportional voltage is on the secondary 

coil. The conditioning electronic circuit incorporated in the 

transducer converts the voltage to a nominal torque signal of 

0 VDC to ± 5 VDC. A low-pass filter (Butterworth / 2

nd

 order), 

adjustable from 5 kHz to 1 Hz, allows tuning of the torque 

signal frequency limitation.
An optical sensor reads the speed on a toothed pattern 

machined directly on the measuring system. The electronic 

conditioner outputs a frequency signal proportional to the shaft 

rotational speed. An active circuit compensates the zero and 

sensitivity temperature drifts within a tolerance of 0.1 % / 10 K.

APPLICATIONS

TM, TMB and TMHS Series Torque Transducers provide 

dynamic torque and speed measurement of:

Propellers - aerospace, marine and helicopter

Windshield wipers, electrical windows, starters,

generators and brakes in automobile industry

Pumps - water and oil

Reduction gears and gearboxes

Clutches

Motorized valves

Drills, pneumatic tools and other machine tools

INSTALLATIONS

 

TheTMB Series is dedicated for use in a basic configuration 

or for low speed applications. The TMB Series ranges from 

TMB 304 (1 N

·

m) to TMB 313 (500 N

·

m). Due to dedicated 

low speed usage,the TMB Series is 

delivered without base 

mount

 however, a base is available as an option.

The TM Series ranges from TM 309 to TM 317 and can 

also be  installed without the base mount in a suspended 

configuration. This configuration is 

only allowed for low 

speed measurment

. The benefit of this configuration is the 

use of a single element coupling, creating a shorter drive train.
