Wireless Torque, Rotary Torque and Reaction Torque Sensing at Honeywell
Sensotec
Sensotec's Torque Sensors feature both Reaction (non-rotation)
and Rotary Torque Sensors that utilize Bonded Strain gauge Technology.
The New Rotary Torque capability offers both in-line mounting
configurations and clamp-on sensors that cover the ranges of
+/- 100 inch pounds to 24,000 inch pounds, and shaft diameters
from 3.5 inches up to 32 inches. These Rotary Torque Sensors
are capable of sensing torque over rotational speeds from zero
rpm to 15,000 rpm. The Sensotec Rotary Torque Sensors are non-contact
and do not use support bearings or slip rings. The torque signal
from the strain gauge sensors is rf coupled to a loop antenna.
An rf receiver converts the signal to 0 +/- 5vdc output.
The Reaction Torque Sensors offer torque measurements from
10 ounce inch to ranges of 3 Million pound inch. A vareity of
mounting configurations are offered including: Shaft to Shaft,
Flange to Flange, and Shaft to Flange on the low range models.
All of Sensotecs Torque Sensors are machined from stainless
steel and temperature hardened for low torsional deflection
as well as temperature compensated for long-term stability.
Applications include automotive braking, engine and transmission
dynamometers, torque table, fastener testing, aircraft engine
testing, and marine shaft torque measurements with shaft horsepower
monitors. |
