Aimed at manufacturing, production and quality assurance applications, Kistler Instruments has developed a range of value-for-money sensors.

The latest new product is the Type 4520A contactless, low maintenance torque sensor for around the same price as slip-ring types, typically less than £1500. Using non-contact signal transmission eliminates wear, making the new sensor robust and maintenance free even in continuous use.

Ten models are available with rated torque from 1 to 1000Nm, each with class 0.5 accuracy at speeds up to 10,000 rpm. Output is the standard ±10V plus a speed signal of 60 pulses/rev and a remotely switchable 100% test function.
