Torque measuring flange
08 February 2016
The new range of Kistler KiTorq torque measuring flanges is available with measuring ranges of 50, 100, 200, 500, 1000, 2000, 3000 and 5000Nm, each with accuracy class of 0.05% of range at speeds up to 20,000rpm and an excellent torque cut-off frequency of 10kHz.
The magnetic speed and angular measurement capability offers a choice of either 60 pulses per revolution or up to 8192 pulses per revolution outputs whilst ensuring the sensor is safe for use in industrial applications where contamination from oil mist may be encountered.
The KiTorq intelligent stator can be used with any KiTorq rotor of the same speed rating and will automatically recognise the rotor measuring range. This minimises hardware investment as one stator may be used with rotors of differing ranges for different applications. Installation is simplified by the contactless, digital telemetry that does not require an antenna ring.
