The new Kistler KiTorq torque
measuring flange system operates
without an antenna ring and has
standard flange geometry
conforming to ISO7646 for
easy installation. The open
stator design is said to
allow faster installation, to
reduce the risk of damage,
and to allow easier visual
inspection during testing.

The universal
intelligent stator may be
used with any KiTorq
rotor of the same speed
rating for greater
operational
flexibility. A choice of
500, 1000, 2000 or 3000Nm
measuring ranges is available, each
with an accuracy class of 0.05% of
range. The system has an excellent
torque signal bandwidth of up
to 10kHz and a 60 pulses
per revolution speed
output.

A single, intelligent
stator can be used with
any KiTorq rotor of the
same speed rating and
will automatically
recognise the rotor
measuring range. This
minimises hardware
investment as one
stator may be used with
rotors of differing ranges for
different applications.
