TorqSenseDigital Rotary Torque Transducers – SGR520/SGR521/SGR522

Our TorqSense rotary strain gauge transducers use non contact technology, eliminating the need for noisy slip rings. They are suitable for torque measuring, testing, feedback and control of drive mechanisms and process control applications.

The SGR series transducers use modern strain gauge signal conditioning techniques to provide a high bandwidth, low cost torque measuring solution with high overrange, and overload capabilities and a wide range of digital outputs.
