The package includes a calibrated sensor, a signal acquisition/processing unit, a 5m connection cable, a calibration certificate, and warning notes.
The sensor is intended for measuring torque and/or speed within specified load ranges. Annual recalibration is advised. Unauthorized modifications will void the warranty. Personnel must be trained and familiar with safety instructions.
The Series 5000 is designed for high torque measurements, suitable for applications such as vehicle testing and process control. It offers multiple output signals and includes a 5m cable and calibration certificate.
Proper mounting requires clean flange contact and correct screw tightening. Disassembly should avoid applying torque to the shaft.
The zero point output signal can be adjusted. Detailed descriptions of mechanical and electrical interfaces are provided, including power supply and signal output instructions.
Regular operation must adhere to nominal torque specifications. In case of mechanical overload, contact NCTE AG. Regular inspections and recalibrations are recommended.
The sensor supports nominal torque up to 10000 Nm, with options for customer-specific calibration. It operates within a temperature range of -30°C to +85°C and offers various output signal options. The protection class is IP50/IP65.
The standard model supports up to 10000 Nm and 2500 rpm. Load characteristics specify limits for axial force, transverse force, and bending moment, with guidelines for permissible stress combinations.

Please note the enclosed sheet on the warning notes. 2.1 Intended use The sensors of the Series 5000 are designed exclusively for measuring torque and/or speed. The respective load range can be taken from the data sheet and must not be exceeded. Proper use also includes compliance with the commissioning, assembly, operating, ambient and maintenance conditions specified by the manufacturer. Any use beyond these is considered improper. The manufacturer is not liable for any damage resulting from such use. 2.2 Recalibration and duration of use A factory recalibration should be executed annually....

Torque Sensor Series 5000 The 5000 series has been specially developed for measurements with high torque. The range extends up to torques > 10000 Nm. 3.1 Short description This series is mainly used in high performance test systems for motor vehicles, in rail applications, for stress testing of components and for process control of heavy loads or container handling. Other applications are professional test constructions and quality control in general. The transmitted torque can be measured statically and dynamically in real-time. Each sensor can be individually configured with many extras, e.g....

3.5 Starting up After mounting the sensor, the following must be observed: Switch on power supply and check voltage value. (Voltage peaks at the sensor must be avoided, devices must be checked accordingly before connection to the sensor) Connect the sensor to the power supply. (using the cable supplied) Record the output signal of the sensor with high resistance. (A/D converter, oscilloscope, PC) Record output signal in mechanically unloaded state of the sensor. 3.6 Operation during regular mode Optimal measuring values are achieved when the sensor is used while maintaining the specific nominal...

1 Specified values only apply to direct axial force on the shaft. If the axial force acts on the circlip, only 50 % of the force is permissible. 2 The accuracy class means that the linearity deviation as well as the circulation modulation, individually, are each less than or equal to the value specified as the accuracy class. The accuracy class must not be confused with a classification according to DIN 51309 or EA-10/14. 3 % ME: Related to the measuring range. 4 Zero point can be set to 5 V using a tare button. 5 The exact sensor-specific values can be found in the calibration certificate supplied....
