130Hz, which will result in slightly lower torque values being displayed with increased RPM. 2. Mountz (170Hz): At this frequency setting, the operator will see limited or no change to the torque values being dis- played as the speed of a power tool is increased. The 170Hz frequency filter in conjunction with software averaging cuts off signals above 170Hz, which will result in little or no change to torque values being displayed with increased RPM.
