General safety instructions The model 8655 torque sensor is state of the art, and is safe to operate. However, if the 8655 torque sensor is not used or operated as intended, it may present a hazard. DANGER Electric shock hazard! The following instructions must be followed to prevent electric shock and injuries: • In order to achieve high measuring sensitivity, the model 8655 torque sensor was not designed with the usual safety factors (2 … 20) for machine designs. For applicable overload factors, see the data sheet. • Observe accident prevention regulations, including for accessories used. •...

Torque Sensor 86552. Introduction IMPORTANT: Read the operation manual carefully before using the equipment, and keep it for future reference. The model 8655 torque sensor measures static and dynamic torques on rotating or stationary machine parts in either direction of rotation. You have the option of measuring rotational speed or angular displacement. The respective upper range value is shown on the type plate. For the dual-range sensor, the larger full-scale value is given. The USB version of the 8655 torque sensor transmits all measurement signals via USB. Both the low mass of the model 8655...

Ambient conditions • Avoid radiant heat or cooling from one side. • Protect the 8655 torque sensor from moisture. • The 8655 torque sensor is not resistant to chemical agents. Do not use the sensor in a corrosive environment. • Keep the bearings and connectors free of dust, dirt and other foreign matter. 2.3.1. Storage Use clean packaging to package the model 8655 torque sensor. The 8655 torque sensor must be stored under the following conditions: • Dry atmosphere • No condensation • Temperature between 0 °C and 60 °C. DANGER Electric shock hazard! Disconnect the 8655 torque sensor from the electrical...

The model 8655 torque sensor does not contain any parts that are intended to be serviced by the user. The transmission system in the model 8655 torque sensor is maintenance-free. Only the manufacturer’s own qualified personnel are permitted to open the model 8655 torque sensor. It is not permitted to make any changes to the model 8655 torque sensor without the written agreement of burster präzisionsmesstechnik gmbh & co kg. burster präzisionsmesstechnik...

Test side The torque being measured is applied to the shaft on the test side of the 8655 torque sensor. This side normally has the smallest moment of inertia. You will see these markings on the test side of the model 8655 torque sensor: Test side, model 8655 torque sensor Drive side The drive side is the opposite side to the test side. The model 8655 torque sensor is also mechanically connected on this side. This side normally has the larger moment of inertia. You will see these markings on the drive side of the model 8655 torque sensor: Drive side, model 8655 torque sensor The torque direction...

Sign convention for torque measurement If the shaft of the model 8655 torque sensor rotates clockwise (looking at the drive side), channel A leads channel B by 90°. If the shaft of the model 8655 torque sensor rotates counterclockwise (looking at the drive side), channel B leads channel A by 90°. Static and quasi-static torques Static and quasi-static torques change their value only slowly or not at all. As long as they are below the rated torque, these torques can take any value. Dynamic torques A dynamic torque changes very rapidly and can even oscillate. In this case the frequency of the torque...
