Mich. The Model 2404-146 coaxial reaction torque sensor measures the reaction torque on the housing of an assembly under test, typically a motor or generator. The sensor is said by the manufacturer to be particularly suited to production applications where it becomes an integral part of the system, such as in mixing and viscosity torque feedback and control applications. Key features of the sensor include zero friction, no-slip rings or brushes, and no speed limitation. The sensor works in any position to provide accurate dynamic torque signals with excellent frequency response and is moisture resistant. The sensor is available in seven capacities, ranging from 50 in.-lbs.
Larger capacities are available in a larger package size.
Bridge resistance is 700 ohms normal. The sensor can be powered with a maximum excitation voltage of up to 20 V ac or dc. The accelerometer also has ESD, RFI, and reverse wiring protections. An R6-type mating connector is available. The isolators were designed to protect valuable measurement and control signals, as well as connected equipment, from the dangerous and degrading effects of noise, transient power surges, internal ground loops, and other hazards present in industrial environments.
