General Description Construction and Functional Principle of the Reaction Torque Sensor The special, patented construction of Kistler reaction torque sensors is distinguished by the fact that the sensor is integrated under high axial preload between a preload screw and a nut. The torque is thus transferred by friction onto the shear-sensitive quartz disks.

Installation and Startup Basic Circuitry and Connections for the Measuring Chain When the applied torque changes, the reaction torque sensor produces an electric charge. The charge signal is converted into a proportional output voltage by the charge amplifier, which can then be measured and recorded by an electronic evaluation system.
Reaction Torque Sensors Type 9329A, 9339A, 9349A, 9369A, 9389A 6. Operation 6.1 Charge Amplifier Settings For reaction torque sensors Type 9329A … 9389A, we recommend that you use a charge amplifier with sensitivity adjustment (e.g. Type 5015A...). Please consult the relevant operating instructions for details concerning the settings for the charge amplifier.
Operation Measuring Signal Resolution Resolution is the smallest possible change to the measurand which can be measured by the system. It is determined by the signal/noise ratio at the signal output of the charge amplifier. For laboratory charge amplifiers, the resolution at the highest gain is typically.
Reaction Torque Sensors Type 9329A, 9339A, 9349A, 9369A, 9389A A measurement of 10 minutes duration therefore results in a drift of: − ⋅ ⋅ N·m/s 0,23 N·m This absolute error is viewed in relation to the measured value; for example, with 100 N·m torque it amounts to 0,23 %.
Page 36
Operation Start the measurement with <Operate>. The fluctua- tions of M can now be measured with high resolution, since the dynamic threshold is ≈0,6 mN·m. This means that a ΔM of 0,6 mN·m will produce an output voltage of ≈600 mV (scaling 1 mN·m/V). The resolution which can be achieved is thus ≈1 : 160 000 ! 0,6 mN·m : 100 N·m...
Reaction Torque Sensors Type 9329A, 9339A, 9349A, 9369A, 9389A 6.6 Hints for Obtaining good Measuring Results Always store the measuring instruments in the same room in which the measurements are made. Leave the connecting cable permanently connected to both the sensor and the charge amplifier. If this is not possible, fit the connector covers.
Maintenance 7. Maintenance The reaction torque sensor Types 9329A … 9389A are reliable instruments requiring practically no maintenance. Please study the following two sections carefully to ensure long and reliable operation. 7.1 Recalibration The reaction torque sensors are calibrated before delivery.

The capacitance, and thus the length of the connecting Cable capacitance cable, has no influence on the measuring result when Kistler special cables and Kistler charge amplifiers are used.

Annex Disturbance Forces, moments and environmental influences acting on the sensor such as the temperature, which the sensor does not measure as a measurand and which produce an output signal (error). Example: when an additional bending mo- ment acts on a force sensor. Drift Unwanted changes in the output signal independent of the measurand as a function of time.

Reaction Torque Sensors Type 9329A, 9339A, 9349A, 9369A, 9389A Overload Maximum value of the measurand with which a sensor can be loaded without sustaining damage. This refers to a safety margin and is not an extended measuring range. The characteristics specified in the calibration certificate are no longer guaranteed in the event of an overload.
±1 % FSO Industrial charge amplifier Higher accuracy can be achieved with the following proce- dures: Calibration in the Kistler factory Calibration with charge amplifier Type 5395A Restriction of the temperature range Random Errors , Precision, Reproducibility Precision or reproducibility is the extent of conformity between independent data measured under specified con- ditions.
Reaction Torque Sensors Type 9329A, 9339A, 9349A, 9369A, 9389A This requirement is found mainly in repetitive measure- ments in production processes, where good repeatability is usually sufficient for process monitoring. Accuracy primarily plays only a subordinate role, when measurements can be directly related to conforming/nonconforming parts.

Annex In their dynamic behavior, piezoelectric sensors are superior to all other measuring methods. Their high rigidity results in the highest possible natural frequencies. Piezoelectric sensors are thus ideal for measuring measurands which change rapidly over time. Their dynamic behavior is thereby largely determined by the surrounding structure.
