Torque Sensor with Slip Ring Transmission Kistler 4501A (±2-1000Nm)

Type 4501A… torque sensors operate on the strain gage principle and supplies an analog output signal in mV/V. The sensors are particularly suitable for screw driving assembly operations.

• Universal applications
• Strain gage full bridge system
• Shunt calibration
• Measurement of torque in either direction of rotation
• Short term speed peaks to 3 000 1/min
• Robust and reliable design
• Small and handy
• Long service life
• Resistant to high acceleration
• Optional rotational angle measurement

These sensors use strain gage technology. Power is supplied and the measurement signal transferred between the rotating shaft and the case via high-grade, durable slip rings. These torque sensors are predominantly employed as in-line torque sensors. They are robust and easy to use. Together with a broad range of measuring and evaluation systems they are ideal instruments for precise and low-priced measurement of torque and torque angles.

Application:

The Type 4501A… torque sensors were designed specifically for use in screw driving assembly applications. The versions with square or hexagonal shaft mount directly on the drives of the tools. Typical applications include control sample checking respectively counter-measurements stationary screw spindles or power driven.

The universal versions with rounded shaft ends can be used wherever torque has to be measured intermittently or at low speed.
