IMPORTANT: Read the operation manual carefully before using the equipment, and keep for future reference. The torque sensor model 8625 measures static and dynamic torques. This measured quantity is suitable for open-loop and closed-loop control functions. The respective upper range value is shown on the type plate. Both the low mass of the torque sensor model 8625 and its high torsional rigidity are an advantage when measuring dynamic torques. However, you need to pay attention to the torsion spring constant and the sensor’s cut-off frequency with such measurements. You can find both of...

Device concept and general information The figures given for the full dimensions, mass and power depend on the version of the torque sensor model 8625. Please refer to the data sheet for specific figures. Test side The test side is that end of the shaft at which you apply the torque being measured to the torque sensor model 8625. This end normally has the smallest moment of inertia. You will see these markings “TEST SIDE” on the measurement end of the torque sensor model 8625: Diagram 1: Test side of torque sensor model 8625 Drive side The drive end is the opposite end to the measurement...

Mechanical design The torque sensor model 8625 does not contain any rotating parts. The shaft is joined directly to the housing at the attachment end. Strain gauges are mounted on the shaft, which acts as the torsion bar in the torque sensor model 8625. The torque is applied to the shaft end labelled "TEST SIDE". The housing provides protection for the sensitive electronic instrumentation and contains the cable/plug connection. The housing is also used as the means of attaching the torque sensor model 8625.

Torque sensor model 8625 with brigde output The torque sensor model 8625 with bridge output has a 7-pin circular connector. This connector is used to supply the sensor with its required rated excitation voltage and to output the measurement signal in mV/V. The supply voltage must be kept absolutely constant. Conventional power supplies cannot guarantee this consistency to an adequate degree. Use an instrumentation amplifier, indicator or process controller that can provide a stabilized supply voltage and processes the mV/V signal. Torque sensor model 8625-XXXX-VXX3X0 The 8625-XXXX-VXX3X0...
