1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 GENERAL INFORMATION
The TM Series In-Line Torque Transducers represent a generation of high-precision torque sensors with
integrated electronic processing circuitry developed by Magtrol. The TM Series Transducers are available
in three versions: TMB, TM and TMHS; TMB for all standard applications, TM for high-precision applications
and TMHS for High-Speed applications.
The TM 3XX Series includes transducers with the following torque ratings: 0.1 N·m, 0.2 N·m, 0.5 N·m, 1 N·m,
2 N·m, 5 N·m, 10 N·m, 20 N·m, 50 N·m, 100 N·m, 200 N·m, 500 N·m, 1 000 N·m, 2 000 N·m, 5 000 N·m and
10 000 N·m.
The TM Series In-Line Transducers, together with Magtrol’s TS Series Torque Sensors and Magtrol’s TF Se-
ries Torque Flange Transducers, offer a wide range of torque measurement requirements for the most
demanding applications.
1.2 TM TRANSDUCER RANGE PRESENTATION
All TM Series In-Line Torque Transducers consist of a torque measuring shaft and built-in signal processing
electronics. These elements, along with two sealed bearings having lifelong lubrication, are all contained
in an aluminium housing which also supports the shaft.
The upper part of the unit contains the built-in electronics. This part is sealed according to the IP44 stan-
dard and offers protection against splashed water. A Souriau connector allows the torque transducer to
be connected to an external signal processing unit - such as the Magtrol MODEL 3411 Torque Display - via
a special cable assembly.

TM Torque Transducers perform the following main functions:
1. Measurement of static and dynamic torque and detection of torque direction.
2. Measurement of the shaft’s rotational speed and detection of rotational direction.
3. Self-check.
The transducer’s integrated electronic circuitry filters the torque signal and its built-in self-test function
checks the operation of the measuring chain. Each transducer also has a built-in temperature compen-
sation circuit. This assures that the accuracy of the measured torque is maintained regardless of operating
temperature.
