The compact dynamometer possesses an
especially high sensitivity. The very lightweight top plate supporting the measuring object guarantees a high natural
frequency, enabling torques to be measured on small high-speed motors.
The sensor contains a set of shear sensitivie
quartz disks. The arrangement of the disks is realized in a way to yield an electric charge which is proportional to the torque
Mz acting around the axis of the dynamometer. The charge is led via an electrode to the TNC connector.
Besides the
dynamometer, a torque measuring system includes a charge amplifier, which converts the charge signal from the dynamometer
into an output voltage. Full-range signal from a Kistler charge amplifier is 10 V.
