Torque transducer has magnetic rotational speed measuring system

Optical measurement systems reach their limits very quickly in adverse industrial environments. The T40B digital torque transducer is reliable and insensitive to dust and oil mist and is therefore predestined for applications in the automotive industry, such as in engine test stands.

T40B features an output pulse count of 1024 pulses/revolution from 50Nm to 10 kNm, covering all measuring ranges. The magnetic rotational speed measuring system with high-output pulse count allows precise measurement of rotational speed in particular with low rotational speeds. Reliable measured values are the result.

The rotational speed measuring system can be used, without restrictions, at the torque transducer's maximum rated rotational speed, depending on the measuring range up to 20,000 rpm. The magnetised plastic ring's metal carrier is mounted onto the torque transducer's second free flange and is thus fully integrated. This saves space and significantly facilitates installation.

T40B offers flexibility. The stator features frequency and voltage standard interfaces. In addition, the digital TMC (Torque Measurement Communication) interface has been integrated. This enables the transducer to be used not only in standalone mode; T40B can also be integrated in various fieldbus-based test bench concepts using the TIM40 interface module or the new TIM-EC EtherCAT interface module, for high performance with highly dynamic measurements.
