The torque sensor con sists of two steel disks, be tween which a ring is fitted which contains several shear-sensitive quartz plates. The crystal axes of the quartz plates are oriented tangentially to the peripheral direction and therefore yield a charge exactly proportional to the applied torque.
The quartz set is protected by the tightly welded and rustproof steel case. The sensor is oil and splash proof if a tightly fitted cable connector is used.
