Product overview
Monad`s Sprocket/Pulley Torque Sensor is a low-cost, accurate method to measure processing torques. Coupled to any belt or chain driven stub shaft and monitored by a closed electrical circuit, machinery speeds and material feed rates can be precisely controlled. Consequently, this automation can increase productivity and decrease power consumption.
Capable of accepting various pulley wheels and shaft diameters, this sensor features a highly accurate integrated sensing element, capable of resolving low torque levels while being exposed to high radial loads created by belt drive systems. Use it to replace a standard pulley system for equipment like engines, generators, fluid pumps, or other motor driven equipment and continuously monitor real time torque while in operation.
This sensor can be adapted to a wide range of belt drive systems and can be installed in a dynamometer test stand or on vehicle. Various torque capacities and pulley gears can be designed to meet your specific requirements.
Features:
- Direct replacement for standard pulley / sprocket
- Low inertia - High Speed capability because electronics are not fixed on to shaft
- Non-contact/brushless measurement - simple RF couple for power/signal transmission
- High bandwidth 10kHz
- 300% mechanical safe overload
- High accuracy and resolution
- Excellent noise immunity
- Seperate digital electronics
- Operates both statically and dynamically - Clockwise and anti-clockwise
- Any full scale torque can be specified within the standard range:
- 100Nm through to 10000Nm
- High torsional stiffness
- Insensitivity to belt/chain tension loads on torque readings
- Elimination of torque error due to bearing losses in jack shaftassembly
- Measurements of torque “at the source”
- Adaptable for portable usage
- No special adapter tools required
- Precision repeatable torque measurements
- Calibration reference for “hard usage” mechanical torque wrenches
- MTS-58 pulley/sprocket transducers are suitable for torque monitoring and process control on any torque wrench test and calibration
