The T252, T254 and T255 high capacity rotary transformer coupled torque sensors were designed for inline testing of propellers, pumps, drivelines, and other devices where there is minimal axial space available for the torque sensor. The T252, T254 and T255 require the use of AC carrier strain gage signal conditioning electronics such as SensorData’s i200. The optional zero velocity speed sensor is installed inside the T252, T254 and T255 housing. Interconnecting cable assemblies are available as an option. SensorData will provide in-house calibration of the T252, T254 and T255 with customer-supplied electronics for a fee.
