General safety instructions The torque sensor model 8625 uses state-of-the-art engineering and is safe to operate. However, if the torque sensor model 8625 is not used or operated as intended, it may present a hazard. DANGER Danger of electric shock!
The respective upper range value is shown on the type plate. Both the low mass of the torque sensor model 8625 and its high torsional rigidity are an advantage when measuring dynamic torques. However, you need to pay attention to the torsion spring constant and the sensor’s cut-off frequency with such measurements.
• Avoid radiant heat or cooling from one side. • Protect the torque sensor model 8625 from moisture. • The torque sensor model 8625 is not resistant to the effects of chemicals. Do not use the torque sensor model 8625 in a corrosive environment.
Please note the following when sending the torque sensor model 8625 in for repair: • If there is a problem with the torque sensor model 8625, please attach a note to the sensor case summarizing the fault.
If you open or dismantle the torque sensor model 8625 during the warranty period, this will void the warranty immediately. The torque sensor model 8625 does not contain any parts that are intended to be serviced by the user. Only the manufacturer's own qualified personnel are permitted to open the torque sensor model 8625.
You will see these markings “TEST SIDE” on the measurement end of the torque sensor model 8625: Diagram 1: Test side of torque sensor model 8625 Drive side The drive end is the opposite end to the measurement end. The torque sensor model 8625 is also mechanically connected at this end. of 38...
With the built-in amplifier option, the torque sensor model 8625 outputs directly a torque-proportional voltage of 0 ... ±10 V. The Micro USB port can be used to configure the torque sensor model 8625. For instance it is possible to set a filter frequency, configure averaging and set a tare function. With the USB option, measurements via USB are available in addition to the voltage output.

Torque sensor model 8625 with brigde output The torque sensor model 8625 with bridge output has a 7-pin circular connector. This connector is used to supply the sensor with its required rated excitation voltage and to output the measurement signal in mV/V.
3.3.1 Torque sensor model 8625 with amplifier The torque sensor model 8625 with built-in amplifier has two connectors, offering alternative options for operation: 1. 7-pin circular connector, and 2. Micro USB socket. Schematic diagram Diagram 4: Model 8625-XXXX-V000X0 output 0 ... ±10 V incl. configure via USB Model 8625-XXXX-V001X0 output 0 ...
N = 100 • Low-pass filter: Programming instructions The dedicated interface manual (Precision torque sensor model 8625 – Interfaces manual) available at www.burster.com contains precise details of the programming instructions. When using the DigiVision PC software, you can configure the sensor via the user interface.
CAUTION Resonance hazard! Operating the torque sensor model 8625 or the entire test setup close to its resonant frequency will result in permanent damage. Keep the torque frequency well below the resonant frequency of the mechanical test setup. Limit the peak-to-peak torque variation to 70 % of the rated torque.
Interference Possible sources of interference: • Temperature change • Temperature gradient • Vibration • Spurious forces • EMC • Electrical interference • Magnetic interference • Angular, axial or radial misalignment IMPORTANT: Take suitable measures to counter these sources of interference because otherwise they may cause an incorrect measurement result, e.g.

Make sure you fit the torque sensor model 8625 the correct way round. The housing is fitted at the attachment end of the sensor. The end of the torque sensor model 8625 to be used for measurement is labelled "TEST SIDE":...
8625. Couplings must be able to slide easily onto the shafts without resistance. Note: Fit the torque sensor model 8625 loosely at first before alignment. Do not tighten the screws on couplings or adapters at this stage. Note: Make sure the whole assembly is exactly in line when aligning the torque sensor model 8625 and/or the shafts.
Diagram 7: Blind threaded holes and locating-pin holes - underside On its end face at the attachment end, the torque sensor model 8625 has six blind threaded holes for fixing the sensor to its surrounding application. Tighten the screws in a diagonal pattern to the specified tightening torque.
Page 23
Always tighten the fixing screws in a star pattern. If the torque sensor model 8625 is supplied fitted with a mounting flange (sensor model 8625-XXXX-V00X40), this flange forms an integral part of the torque sensor model 8625 and is calibrated with the sensor.

Installation using a bracket The torque sensor model 8625 can be supplied with a bracket as an accessory. This bracket must be fitted independently by the customer and is not included in the calibration. The bracket is screwed onto the attachment end of the torque sensor model 8625 using six fixing screws.

We recommend using split metal-bellows couplings, model 8691, to attach the shaft at the measurement end ("TEST SIDE"). The advantage of the 8691 metal-bellows couplings is that they can correct any misalignments of the shaft. Even if the torque sensor model 8625 has been precisely aligned, very slight misalignments can still arise.

Electrical connection Diagram 6: Electrical connection 4.2.1 Power supply DANGER Danger of electric shock! Because of size constraints, the supply voltage, output voltage and USB socket are not galvanically isolated. This means that the device has common digital and analog grounds, which are connected to the housing.
4.2.3 USB pin assignment The USB interface complies with the USB 2.0 standard and the pin assignment is as usual. The built-in connector on the torque sensor model 8625 is a “micro USB” plug. Name + 5 V Data -...
The torque sensor model 8625 works in an operating voltage range of 5 ... 30 VDC – measured at the torque sensor model 8625. When using cables of small cross-section or with an extension, you must take into account the voltage drop in the cable.
4.2.8 Connecting the shield The shield together with the torque sensor model 8625 and the external electronics form a Faraday cage. Thanks to this cage, electromagnetic interference usually does not affect the measurement signal. IMPORTANT: The torque sensor model 8625 must always be grounded reliably by means of its fixing screws.
Diagram 10: Layout of a cable with excess length • Locate the torque sensor model 8625, cable and measuring instrument outside the field of high-energy equipment. These include transformers, motors, contactors, frequency converters and so forth. Otherwise the electromagnetic fields from such equipment will act with their full effect on the measuring chain, causing incorrect measurements.
The torque direction A torque is clockwise (clockwise torque) if the torque is exerted clockwise when looking at the measurement end. In this case you will get a positive electrical signal at the torque sensor model 8625 output. Diagram 11: Torque, clockwise (looking at measurement end) You can use the torque sensor model 8625 to measure both clockwise and counterclockwise torques.
Check function (for 8625 with instrumentation amplifier) The torque sensor model 8625 with analog output has a Check function.
