Page 4: Read First
Read First Safety and Caution Symbols Caution: Injury Risk for Persons Damage of the Device is possible Note: Important points to be considered Intended Use Torque sensors are intended for the measurement of torque. This measureand is further suitable for control tasks. -
Page 5: Term Definitions
Term Definitions Terms Measuring Side: Shaft connection in which the torque to be measured is applied. Usually this side has the smallest moment of inertia. Drive Side: The shaft end on the opposite side of the measuring side with the larger moment of inertia. At static torque sensors the housing is fastened on this side. -
Page 6: Mechanical Assembly
Mechanical Assembly Caution: During the assembly inadmissibly large forces may not act on the sensor or the couplings. At small torques (< 20 N·m) connect the sensor electrically during the assembly and observe the signal, the measurement signal may not exceed the limit values During the assembly the sensor must be supported to protect it from falling down. -

Page 8: Extension Cable
Extension Cable Caution: depending on bridge resistance and wire cross section, the measuring cable length enters into the characteristic value of the sensor. Therefore order the sensor together with the extension cable. Dependence of the characteristic value on the cable length: Wire-cross Cable resistance Deviation per m... -
Page 9: Natural Resonances
6.4.2 Natural Resonances Estimate of the mechanical natural frequencies: = Natural frequency in Hz = Moment of inertia in kg*m² = Torsional rigidity in Nm/rad Operation of the device in natural resonance can lead to permanent damages. Disturbance Variables By disturbances, measured value falsifications can occur by ... -

Page 11: Storage
Storage The storage of the sensors must occur in dry, dust-free rooms, only. Slightly lubricate shafts and flanges with oil before storing (rust). Disposal The torque sensors must be disposed according to the valid provisions of law. Calibration At the time of delivery, torque sensors have been adjusted and tested with traceable calibrated measuring equipment at factory side.
