Low-cost Tension and Compression Load Cell - 8427 - Low-cost Tension compression load cell, canister, compact high - precision

Robust, reliable, easy handling, highly accurate, extremely compact design, for static and quasi-static measurement (non-rotating) These torque sensors are qualified for static and dynamic measurements on non-rotary applications. Further the measurement of reaction torques on rotating machine parts is possible. Especially the torque sensors with flanges are preferred. They are mounted between motor and stator, e.g. in agitator drives. This enables a maintenancefree torque measurement. Another range of application is the testing of screw driving units and torque wrenches. For individual measuring tasks the design of our torque sensors can be adapted to the customer’s installation conditions. More application examples: Test structures in the field of precision mechanics Determination of friction torques Acquisition of breakage moments on screw caps

DESCRIPTION The 8661 precision torque sensor is the ideal choice for reliable measurement of static and dynamic clockwise and counter-clockwise torques. Thanks to its high measurement quality and low linearity error, the sensor is equally at home in quality control or research & development. Designed for non-contact operation and zero-maintenance, the 8661 is also ideally suited to the production environment, whether on shift-based production lines, test benches or end-of-line test systems. The 8661 torque sensor is the specialist device for constant torque measurements during continuous operation and for test-bench measurements of holding, friction, break-away or tightening torques. FEATURES Measuring range from 0 ...0.02 N·m to 0 ... ±1000 N·m Low linearity deviation of ≤ ±0.05 % F.S. Intelligent operating state indicator 16 bit D/A converter including digital adjustment Output signal 0 ... ±10 V (optional 0 ... ±5 V or USB) Excellent price-performance ratio

Precise, reliable measurements of both static and dynamic torques in either direction can be made with this range of sensors. This opens a wide range of possible applications to the user. These torque sensors are standard equipment in a wide range of industrial automation, quality control and automotive components industry applications, as well as in laboratories. Typical applications: Screwing technology Checking and adjusting bolting tools such as torque limiting wrenches, screwdrivers Testing bolted connections Measuring the drag torque of motors and pumps Frictional torques of gears, bearings and seals Testing torsion springs Adjusting equipment in the automobile industry (sunroof, power windows etc.)

This sensor uses a non-contact and maintenance-free technology to convert the torque into an electrical signal. The nickel steel shaft is conditioned with a permanent magnetic pattern. Apart from this, no other components such as strain gages or wiring are required on the shaft. The magnetic pattern changes as a result of the torque being measured. This produces a measurement signal that is dependent on the torque. Via the integrated amplifier, the sensor supplies an output voltage of 0.5 ... 4.5 V. The zero point is at 2.5 V, which makes it easy to evaluate the direction of torque. Areas of application: Automotive (steering, gearing, motors) Drilling systems Textile machines Pumps, mechanical conveying technology Fitness and workout gears, household appliances FEATURES: Measuring range 0 ... 2.5 Nm to 0 ... 500 Nm Extended temperature range -40 °C ... +85 °C High axial forces allowed Integrated amplifier
