Ultra Precise, Dual Range Torque Transducers with Analog & Digital Outputs

Ultra Precise, Dual Range Torque Transducers with Analog & Digital Outputs

02 January 2018

S. Himmelstein: Series MCRT® 79800V Dual Range Digital Torque Transducers accurately measure low running and high load torques without the cost and inconvenience of swapping conventional sensors. They offer high measurement accuracy, fast installed response, high mechanical overload and electrical overrange and ease of installation.  Both high range and low range outputs are always present. Output signals are provided as analog and digital simultaneously.  A wide range of capacities are available from 40 lbf-in to 375,000 lbf-in.

They will safely and accurately measure normal torques when large transients are present, avoiding the necessity of over-sizing a conventional torquemeter at the cost of measurement accuracy. 

Accuracy grades are ±0.03% on the high range and ±0.05% on the low range of full scale combined non-linearity and hysteresis, and have world class temperature performance.  Mechanical overload of 1,000% (low range) and 200% (high range) offers a safety margin in the presence of high startup torques or large torsional oscillations.  Electrical overrange of 150% avoids clipping of real world torque peaks and driveline torsionals reducing potential for errors in the average torque measurement. They output ±10 Volt or ±5 Volt analogs of torque, speed (an option) as well as engineering unit data via a resident RS232/422/485 com port. Operation is fully bidirectional and measurements are valid to zero speed. 

The MCRT® 79800V units are easy to use with included interface software that allows fast PC setup and re-configuration while selecting from up to 10 units of measure, all without re-calibrating. All are calibrated CW and CCW to rated load in our ISO 17025, NVLAP accredited laboratory (NVLAP lab code 200487-0).

They are well suited for a broad range of applications including both performance and endurance testing of engines, transmissions, drive systems, pumps, motors, servo motors, gearboxes, actuators, etc.
