|  | CS-T-08 Flexplate Torque Transducer
Special Torque Transducer which replaces the original flexplate |  | T10F Torque Flange
The T10F torque flange is the first torque flange representative. The T10F uses shear stress as a measure of torque for the first time, a measurement principle for which HBM applied for patent. Available in ranges from 50 N·m up to 10 kN·m. |  | T10FH Torque Flange
The T10FH is a torque flange that can measure torques from 100 kN·m up to 300 kN·m – with the proven accuracy and reliability of the successful T10F product family. To achieve the goal of improved productivity and efficiency the T10FH is the ideal solution for power test benches for ship’s main engines or tests in the off-shore industry. |  | T10FM Torque Flange
The T10FM torque flange can measure torques up to 80 kN·m. It is based on a modified T10F measuring body and also uses the shear stress principle of measurement. The measuring body and the torque introduction part are made from one piece. Its extremely short design takes up less space in the test rig and thus saves money. The high permissible transverse forces allow projecting machine elements to be directly connected. |  | T10FS Torque Flange
The T10FS torque flange adds to the outstanding market reputation of the T10F torque flange, extending the range covered to greater accuracy, higher speeds and smaller outside diameters. It is based on a modified T10F measuring body and also uses the shear stress principle of measurement. Available in ranges from 100 N•m up to 10 kN•m. |  | T11F High Speed Torque Flange
HBM's T11F measurement flange provides you with the rugged and reliable torque measurement solution - also with very high rotational speeds. Optimized mass moments of inertia for reliable measurement of rotational speed and torque: reducing dynamic moments during acceleration and braking. |  | T12 Digital Torque Flange
Uses modern fieldbus systems (CANopen, PROFIBUS DPV1) for connecting directly to PLC automation systems. Provides a frequency & analog output. Fit for use with conventional technologies. |  | T20WN Torque Transducer
The T20WN torque flange is specifically designed for measuring static and dynamic torque, rotation speed and angle of rotation in the laboratory, test and inspection sector, as well as in production monitoring and quality assurance. Avaiable in ranges from 0.1 N•m to 200 N•m. |  | T22 Torque Transducer
The T22 is an attractively priced transducer for simple torque applications. It comes with integrated electronics; this saves time and costs – no additional, external amplifiers are required for upgrading your measurement chain. Matched couplings are available for all T22 sizes. Its' compact design is perfectly suited for test benches where space is a constraint. |  | T40B Torque Flange
Saves space & costs due to its short design. Allows high parasitic loads enabling machine elements to be directly mounted. Has no slip rings or bearings. Available from 50 N·m to 10 kN·m. |  | T40FM Torque Flange
The digital torque flange measures highly dynamic processes in the measurement ranges between 15-80 kNm up to a bandwidth of 6 kHz. It has a short design and a very low weight and therefore a small mass moment of inertia. The secure, digital measured value transfer offers high interference immunity and maximum accuracy. Optimally suited for large engine, gear and rolling road test benches. | | Torque Sensors - Slip-Ring | |  | Slipring assemblies
SK5, SK6 and SK12 slip-ring assemblies transfer measurement signals from rotating electrical transducers to stationary measuring systems. |  | T4A Torque Transducer
T4A and T4WA-S3 torque transducers are specifically designed for measuring static and dynamic torque, rotation speed and angle of rotation in production monitoring and quality assurance. Transducers can be used both in conjunction with hand-held screwdrivers and motorized screwdrivers, but not with impact screwdrivers. Available in ranges from 5 N•m up to 1 kN•m. |  | T5 Torque Transducer
The T5 torque transducer is designed for occasional, simple torque measurement tasks in the laboratory, teaching and testing sector. The cylindrical shaft ends allow torque to be applied without play. Slip-ring transfer allows all industry-standard amplifiers for SG full bridges to be used. Available in ranges from 10 N•m to 200 N•m. |
