Kitorq torque measuring flange system
The open stator design of the Kitorq torque measuring flange system allows quick installation while minimising the risk of damage and enabling visual inspection during testing
The robust system — whose standard flange geometry conforms to ISO7646, enabling straightforward installation — is offered with a choice of 500Nm, 1,000Nm, 2,000Nm or 3,000Nm measuring ranges, each of which has an accuracy class of 0.05 per cent of range.
In addition, it offers a torque signal bandwidth of up to 10kHz and an output speed of 60 pulses per revolution.
Kistler’s torque measuring flange system functions without an antenna ring and has an open stator design that is claimed to enable fast installation with a low risk of damage, as well as making the unit easy to inspect visually.
The universal stator may be used with any Kitorq rotor of the same speed rating and will recognise the rotor measuring range automatically. It also provides frequency, analogue and digital signal outputs that are fully scalable using either an RS-232 or USB interface.
Key benefits
- The system has been tested to EN 60068-2-27 for mechanical shock, EN 60068-2-6 for triaxial vibration loading and EN 61326-1 for interference immunity
- Contactless, digital telemetry with no antenna ring simplifies installation
- Kitorq is supplied with Sensortool configuration and diagnostic software and calibration certificates as standard
- Several calibration options are available for the configurable output signals
- When replacing a rotor or stator, the notional calibration values can be calculated to avoid having to get the unit recalibrated by the manufacturer
- The rotor’s original measuring range can be overridden so that the full output signal can be made available over a defined range
- A second measuring range — which is freely selectable — can also be defined at each output
