ETS torque sensors
The Enhanced Torque Sensors (ETS) range of interchangeable torque sensors is specially adapted to the HelixaPro and VortexPro test systems.
They plug into the frame of the precision torque tester and their calibration characteristics are immediately recognised by the software without any input from the operator.
To ensure that you have the optimum selection to meet all your torque testing needs, eight different sensors are available. All sensors measure from zero and cover the range from 0.1 N.m right up to 10 N.m .
A range of grips, fixing tables and chucks is available to hold your specimens. Connection to each ETS sensor is via a ⅜" male square drive (ETS 0.3 - 10) or via a ¼" female hexagonal drive (ETS 0.1 - 0.2)
Sensor capacity, range and accuracy
Each sensor reads from zero to its full nominal capacity (listed below). Measurement accuracy is an outstanding ±0.5% of the sensor capacity.
| Model ETS | 0.1* | 0.2* | 0.3 | 1 | 1.5 | 3 | 6 | 10** |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| N.m | 0.1 | 0.2 | 0.3 | 1 | 1.5 | 3 | 6 | 10 |
| kgf.cm | 1 | 2 | 3 | 10 | 15 | 30 | 60 | 100 |
| lbf.in | 0.9 | 1.8 | 2.7 | 9 | 13 | 26 | 50 | 90 |
*Not recommended for VortexPro
**Not recommended for HelixaPro
Each sensor is delivered as standard with its own calibration certificate traceable to national standards.
Servicing and calibration
Mecmesin also provides annual servicing and torque sensor re-calibration. Talk to one of our engineers or your local national distributor to find out more.
