Torque transducer meets test bench standards

A HBM UK product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Nov 5, 2007

HBM has designed the TB2 for nonrotating use with continuous calibration and for static and dynamic measurement.

HBM's TB2 torque reference transducer has a typical relative zero error of less than 0.003% - exceeding the requirements for class 0.05 as defined by DIN 51309 or EA 10-14.

It is designed to meet demands for greater torque measurement accuracy on test benches.

The standard for class 0.5 requires measured values to range within 40% - 100% of the nominal (rated) torque.

In the range of 10% - 100% of the nominal torque the TB2 typically has a relative repeatability error with rotation of less than 0.02% and a relative reversibility error of less than 0.03%.

The TB2 provides maximum accuracy and reproducibility in torque measurements.

HBM has designed the TB2 for nonrotating use with continuous calibration and for static and dynamic measurement.

It features a closed measuring body geometry with internally installed strain gauges to provide the measuring system with a virtually hermetic seal against environmental influences.

The strain gauge measuring system enables all amplifiers for strain gauge full bridges to be used.

The transducers are ideally suited for calibrations in industrial applications when reference transducers are used and provide easy connections to different interfaces and fieldbus systems.

The TB2 is available with nominal (rated) measuring ranges of 500Nm as well 1, 2, 3, 5 and 10kNm and it is also available with IP67 protection.
