Torque Meter Frequently Asked Questions

Question number FAQ-1272

Can one display be used to switch between the signals of two torque detectors?

Switching signals at contact points can lead to variations in the torque detector's N-0 characteristics due to fluctuations in contact resistance, making it impossible to guarantee the specified accuracy. Therefore, switching of torque detector signals is prohibited.

To switch signals, a dedicated switch with an amplifier is required. However, since using two display units is more cost-effective, the switch is made to order.

As a substitute, the TS-3200 type display device has the capability to store specific values for multiple detectors, allowing for immediate measurement by simply changing the signal lines.

For TS series display devices other than the TS-3200, it is necessary to adjust the detector-specific values (FACTOR, CAPACITY, ZERO) according to the detector each time.
