Innovations in Force Measurement

PRESS RELEASE - April-2005

Lake Orion, MI – Sensor Developments Inc. has customized it's standard model 01251 infrared rotating torque sensor to achieve a single flange configuration, while still maintaining high torsional stiffness. This new sensor was designed where axial space is a premium, without compromising performance requirements. It features true non-contacting torque measurement. No bearings or slip rings are used in the design. The sensor is inductively powered via a rotating transformer and the torque signal is digitized and sent via infrared light pulses back to a stationary optical receiver. The signals are then filtered and converted back to high level analog out-puts and digital serial output.

Various torque ranges, flange and mounting configurations can be accommodated with our custom engineering capabilities. Please contact our factory for further information.

System Features Include:

High frequency response
High accuracy
High level analog signal output
Digital signal output
No moving parts that may wear out and need replacing.
On-board shunt calibration
Increased gap tolerance for the base unit
Signal interrupt indication
A solid, single piece sensing element for improved rigidity and prolonged sensor life
No bearing or brush drag
High immunity to signal noise
No brush induced signal interference
High operating RPM
Custom flange configurations available
Supplied with an ISO - 17025 accredited torque calibration
