General information

To make the electrical connection between the torque
transducer and the amplifier, we recommend using
shielded, low‐capacitance measurement cables from
HBM.
With cable extensions, make sure that there is a proper
connection with minimum contact resistance and good
insulation. All plug connections or swivel nuts nuts must
be fully tightened.
Do not route the measurement cables parallel to power
lines and control circuits. If this cannot be avoided (in
cable pits, for example), maintain a minimum distance of
50 cm and also draw the measurement cable into a steel
tube.
Avoid transformers, motors, contactors, thyristor controls
and similar stray‐field sources.
Important
Transducer connection cables from HBM with attached
connectors are identified in accordance with their
intended purpose (Md or n). When cables are shortened,
inserted into cable ducts or installed in control cabinets,
this identification can get lost or become concealed. If
this is the case, it is essential for the cables to be
re‐labeled!
