Portable precision Sensor Interface - 72-9206-REF

This torque sensor is 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. 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 The design has been optimized regarding overall length, weight and volume, so that axial forces up to relatively high limit values and bending moments of up to 20 % of the measuring range have only a small effect to the influence of the measuring element.

The force measuring chain has been developed for applications where the requirements for precision are not the primary focus, but rather where an economical purchase price and simple functionality are the key criteria. The sensor‘s strain gauge technology allows both static and dynamically changing forces to be measured. The large display means that the force acting on the sensor can be read easily. The four integrated threaded holes allow the sensor to be integrated quickly and easily into existing production and assembly equipment. Typical applications include: —Testing the strength of welded joints —Sports medicine —Monitoring the clamping force of hose connections The body of the sensor is a flat, cylindrical disk, into which a domed force application knob is integrated. It is important that the force is applied axially to the center of the sensor.

This force measurement chain was developed for applications where a low cost solution is more important than achieving high levels of accuracy. The sensors strain gauge technology allows the measurement of static and dynamic forces. The load cell is also designed for applications that provide only little space due to its compact design. These properties, together with the sensors dust protection, make the measuring chain suitable for a wide range of applications, such as Industrial manufacture Manufacture of customized machinery Geological investigations Motor vehicle engineering Commercial agriculture Bridge building The body of the sensor is a flat, cylindrical disk, into which a domed force application knob is integrated. It is important that the force is applied axially to the center of the sensor. The domed form, however, minimizes the effect of a force that is not exactly axial.

The tension & compression load cells from the 8523 series are designed for a wide range of uses. The sensors feature many benefits, including three point-contact mounts for tilt-free installation. Thanks to this feature, excellent measurement results can be achieved even with a sub-optimum mounting surface. The force to be measured is applied to the central threaded hole in the tension or compression direction. For measuring purely compressive loads, using load buttons from our accessories range saves the need for complex sensor-integration mechanisms. Tensile loads in rods or chains can also be detected with ease using the optional pull plate. Inside the sensor is an elastic membrane, on which are applied strain gages connected in a full Wheatstone bridge. FEATURES Measuring ranges from 0 ... 20 N to 0 ... 5 kN Tilt-free installation thanks to point-contact mounts Excellent price/performance ratio Easy mounting burster TEDS optionally available
