TorqSense RWT330/340 Series

RWT340 Series Rotary Torque Transducer with Seperate Electronics

The digital TorqSense RWT330 and RWT340 Series use the latest and same non-contact TorqSense technology as used in the RWT310/320 Series in three different body sizes for torque ranges from 500mNm to 10,000Nm, with above 10,000Nm on request. The only difference for this Series is that it may be more appropriate for some applications to have the sensor unit separate from the electronics unit due to space and/or environmental limitations.

The series offers a cost effective, non-contact digital rotary torque measurement solution, using TorqSense Surface Acoustic Wave technology, suitable for torque monitoring, testing or controlling drive mechanisms and particularly appropriate for OEM applications.

If you require integrated electronics, please see our RWT310/320 Series.

Key Benefits

  • Minimal shaft length - High shaft stiffness
  • Low inertia - High Speed capability because electronics are not fixed on to shaft
  • Non-contact measurement - simple RF couple for power/signal transmission
  • High bandwidth
  • 200% mechanical safe overload
  • High accuracy and resolution
  • Excellent noise immunity
  • Seperate digital electronics
  • Operates both statically and dynamically - Clockwise and anti-clockwise
  • Any full scale torque can be specified within the standard range: 500mNm through to 10,000Nm
  • Sensors to monitor shaft temperature for better compensation and accuracy
  • LED Status light
  • Lifetime Warranty

TorqSense RWT330 Series transducers offer:

  • Fixed voltage or current analog outputs (one for torque and the other for speed or power) for interfacing with legacy analog instrumentation
  • BIT Self-diagnostics for letting the manufacturer know that the transducer torque or speed ratings have not been exceeded and the transducer's calibration date
  • Simple 'fail' output pin

Whereas, TorqSense RWT340 Series transducers offer:

  • 2 x user selectable voltage or current analog outputs (one for torque and the other for speed, power or peak torque) for interfacing with legacy analog instrumentation
  • Digital outputs such as RS232 and USB for interfacing with modern instrumentation and laptops
  • Digital input for configuring transducer via PC
  • BIT Self-diagnostics for letting users know data is trustworthy, that the transducer torque or speed ratings have not been exceeded and the transducer's calibration date
  • Transducer configuration software to allow user to changes transducer variables
  • Ability to connect up to 10 transducers using USB
  • Simple 'fail' output pin
