TM Series | Torque Sensors

Magtrol’s TS In-LineTorque Sensors provide extremely accurate torque and speed measurement. Each model has an integrated conditioning electronic module providing 0VDC to ±5VDC (±10VDC) torque output through an 8-pole connector, as well as a USB interface which can be directly connected to a computer. The sensor is delivered with software allowing easy connection and data acquisition. A speed encoder provides a minimum of 360PPR (Pulse Per Revolution) in Tach A, Tach B and Index reference Z (1PPR). Magtrol Torque Sensors are very reliable, providing high overload protection, excellent long-term stability and high noise immunity. TSSeries sensor models are strain gauge-based measuring systems with imbedded telemetry signal transmission. Three LED lights allow a visual check of the sensor status by color code. The sensor is powered by 24VDC (12-32VDC) through its connector. TARE & B.I.T.E. (Built-In Test Equipment) can be activated by either software or input from the 8-pole connector.

With its compact, bearingless, maintenance-free design, the new TF Torque Flange Sensor from Magtrol brings many appealing advantages to torque measurement applications. The TF’s high torsional rigidity supports direct mounting on the machine shaft or flange, avoiding the use of couplings on one side. This allows easy integration into a test system, shortens the overall length of the test bench and reduces costs. Based on strain-gauge technology, the TF Sensor’s precise telemetry system enables highly accurate signal transmission. A signal amplifier mounted in the measuring flange amplifies the measuring signal, modulates it to high frequency and transmits it inductively (via the HF transmitter) to the receiver. In the receiver, the digitized torque signal is transformed into an analog output signal of ±10 VDC. Rotational speed can be measured and converted to a TTL output signal with the optional speed pickup. more info www.magtrol.com

Magtrol’s Model 3411 Torque Display is designed for use with all Magtrol TS, TM, TMHS, TMB and TF Torque Transducers. This easy-to-use device powers the transducer and utilizes high speed processing to display torque, speed and mechanical power. It includes a tare function to help offset any slight residuals caused by couplings or suspended loads. The 3411 may also be used with any torque sensors requiring 24 V DC power (500 mA max.) with ± 5 V DC torque output (± 10 V DC max.) and open collector, TTL or CMOS output for the speed signal.

The TSC Series is the Torque and Speed Conditioner used to connect Magtrol Eddy-Current (WB) or Powder (PB) Dynamometers to the DSP7000 Dynamometer Controller. Powered by the dynamometer controller, and based on a precision instrumentation amplifier, the unit amplifies and filters the torque signal. It also provides power and connections for the speed pickup sensor which is located in the dynamometer.
