T40B torque flange by HBM offers constantly reliable test results

Durham Instruments supplies the T40B torque-flange family, manufactured by HBM.

Durham Instruments is a premier supplier of measurement instruments for Canadian businesses, including many products manufactured by HBM Test and Measurement. One of HBM’s more recent innovations is the T40B, a family of torque flanges that offer consistently reliable test results, even when used under the most adverse ambient conditions.

These compact torque flanges are recommended for applications in many different industries, like general manufacturing, automation, power generation, alternative energy, transportation, and research and development.

A secure digital data transfer

What makes the T40B family such a global technological breakthrough is that it is the first torque flange of its class to benefit from particularly secure digital data transfer between the rotor and the stator. The user advantage is results that are accurate even under electromagnetic interference, vibration, or temperature variation. All this at a competitive price.

With their easy-to-connect shunts, users can check these torque flanges at any time, and the results are always reliable, day after day and year after year. T40B results have been guaranteed by the strict, high-quality test standards of HBM’s internal calibration laboratory.

Features and benefits of this device include the following: nominal torque from 50 to 10,000 Newton metres; nominal rotational speed from 10,000 to 20,000 revolutions per minute; accuracy class of 0.05 (to comply with stringent HBM criteria); measurement frequency range of up to six kilohertz; digital transmission of measured values; short design; no bearings or slip rings; analog output of plus or minus ten volts; shunt connection; and low rotor weights and mass moments of inertia.

Additional options include a rotational-speed measuring system and a reference signal. Durham Instruments also carries HBM’s TIM40 torque interface module, available separately, which connects the T40B. Other TIM40 advantages include:

• Mounting on support rail, per DIN EN 50022;
• Scaling, filtering, and zeroing of the torque signal;
• Measurement frequency range of up to ten kilohertz;
• Output signals of plus or minus ten volts;
• Ethernet interface with 38,125 measured values per second; and
• Various Anybus modules available as accessories.
