TF1: torque flange, 1 kN·m

The TF1 is a rotating torque transducer mounted in the shaft line between two flanges. It measures torque up to 1 kN·m (1 000 N·m), with an accuracy of 0.10 % and a safe overload of 200 %, as well as speed and position. The aluminum body is 162 mm in diameter and 49 mm long, runs up to 7 000 rpm and is sealed to IP67. The design has no bearing. Data is sampled at 5.2 kS/s with a 16-bit encoder resolution. It operates from −40 to 85 °C.

The transducer is bolted into the shaft line with eight M10 bolts on a 101.5 mm pitch circle. It is supplied with a telemetry stator, a receiver and the system cables: the stator powers the transmitter by induction and the torque data reaches the receiver by RF. The Torque Flange Interface Box takes a 9 to 36 V DC supply, powers the system and provides the analog and digital outputs for data acquisition; a zeroing function is built in. The additional axes Fy, Mx and Mz are options, as is the speed and position encoder, with a resolution set to the customer's request.

Torque flanges are used on dynos, motors, engines, gearboxes and axles, for efficiency, fatigue, end-of-line and hybrid drive testing.
