New for 2020 is the TorqSense Digital rotary strain gauge series (SGR) Transducers. With a separate electronics module, the transducers use non contact technology eliminating the need for noisy slip rings. The SGR530/540 series torque sensors are suitable for torque measuring, testing, feedback 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.
If you require integral electronics, please see our SGR510/520 series transducers.
