S. Himmelstein & Company Hollow Flanged Reaction Torque Transducer RTM 2000

S. Himmelstein and Company offers three basic types of reaction torque meters, i.e. Hollow Torque meters, Shaft Torque meters and Flanged Torque meters. All use temperature compensated full foil gage torque bridge sensors that provide inherent cancellation of bending and thrust signals. The RTM hollow reaction series utilizes a patented (No. 3,800,591) double wall construction (except Model 2050) that economically provides unusual isolation and high torsional stiffness in a compact mechanical package. This is done without the use of multiple bridges, which have reduced reliability because of the increased number of bridge connections and wiring complexities. With two exceptions, all transducers are constructed of 15-5 PH, a precipitation hardened stainless steel with exceptional fatigue properties. In that connection, transducers subjected to full scale reversals have essentially infinite fatigue life. All models are furnished with a mating connector and precision shunt calibration resistor referenced to an NIST traceable dead weight calibration.
