OPERATION MANUAL Precision torque sensor Model 8630 - 8

Torque Sensor 8630 2. Introduction IMPORTANT: Read the operation manual carefully before using the equipment, and keep it for future reference. 2.1 Intended use The model 8630 torque sensor 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 model 8630 torque sensor and its high torsional rigidity are an advantage when measuring dynamic torques. However, you need to pay attention to the spring constant and the cut-off frequency of the...

Mechanical design The 8630 torque sensor does not contain any rotating parts. The shaft is joined directly to the housing on the drive side. Strain gages are mounted on the shaft, which acts as the torsion bar in the 8630 torque sensor. The torque is applied to the shaft end labeled “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 8630 torque sensor. Basic design of the 8630 torque sensor Electrical design DANGER Electric shock hazard! Because of size...
