ferent connection possibilities (anges,
shaft, square, hexagonal etc.). The tor-
sion body, applied with strain gauges,
is protected by a housing. A plug or a
cable connection is xed at the housing.

4. Mechanical Assembly
Caution: During the assembly inadmissibly large forces may not act
on the sensor or the couplings. At small torque (< 20 Nm) connect
the sensor electrically during the assembly and observe the signal,
the measurement signal ma not exceed the limit values.
During the assembly the sensor must be supported to protect it from
failing down.
It is to differentiated between measuring side and drive side of the sensor. The
housing is xed at the drive side or of the sensor.
Caution at permutation of drive side and measuring side.
► The cable connection can inuence the torque measurement.
► At dynamic measurements, the measured value can be inuenced
by the inert masses of the housing.
Measuring side - see corresponding data sheet.
4.1 Sensors up to 15 Nm
Sensors with nominal torques up to 15 Nm are very sensitive regard-
ing overload; therefore treat the sensor with great caution.
1. Connect the sensor electrically during the assembly and watch the
signal; the measuring signal may not exceed the limit values.
2. Align the arrangement before the parts are rmly connected.
3. Mount the sensor at the low torque resistance side rst, then at the
stationary side. (This avoids impermissibly large torques from acting
on the sensor.)
4. Counter-hold by hand, so that impermissibly large torques or distur-
bance variables can not act on the torque sensor.

Page 12
Torque Sensor Model 8627, 8628, 8632
4.2 Flange Connection
Before the assembly, anges must be cleaned with dissolver (e.g. acetone), no
foreign particles may adhere to them. The surface of the ange must indicate
a evenness of at least 0.02 mm.
Tighten screw consistently. The ange may not slip while torque is applied
(surface pressure), if necessary use tting bolts.
4.3 Shaft Connection
The shaft must be cleaned with dissolver (e.G. acetone) before the assambly,
no foreign particles may adhere to them.
The hub must t corresponding to the connection.
4.4 Inside Square and Outside Square
The inside and outside square must be cleaned before the assembly. No for-
eign particles may adhere to them.

5.3 Cable
Only use a shielded cable with preferably small capacity. We recommend mea-
suring cables from our product range. They have been tested in combination
with our sensors and meet the metrological requirements.
5.4 Shielding Connection
In combination with the sensor and the external electronics, the shield forms
a Faraday Cage. By this, electro-magnetic disturbances do not have any inu-
ence on the measurement signal.
At potential difference problem we recommend to ground the sensor.
5.5 Extension Cable
Caution: Depending on bridge resistance and wire cross section, the measur-
ing cable length enters into the characteristic value of the sensor. Therefore
order the sensor together with the extension cable and the calibration at burster
praezisionsmesstechnik gmbh & co kg.
Dependence of the characteristic value on the cable length:
Wire- Cable resistance Deviation per m Deviation per m Deviation per m
cross per m cable length at cable length at cable length at
section bridge resistance bridge resistance bridge resistance
350 Ω700 Ω1000 Ω
0.14 mm2 0.28 Ω 0.08 % 0.04 % 0.028%
0.25 mm2 0.16 Ω 0.046% 0.023% 0.016%
0.34 mm2 0.12 Ω 0.034% 0.017% 0.012%
Cable resistance = 2 x resistance of the cable length (both feed lines of the
sensor). The sensor with the ordered cable length are calibrated at burster
praezisionsmesstechnik gmbh & co kg. Therefore the cable length does not
need to be considered in this case.
5.6 Running of Measuring Cables
Do not ran measuring cables together with control or heavy-current cables.
Always assure that large distance is kept to engines, transformers and con-
tractors, because their stray elds can lead to interferences of the measuring
signals. If troubles occur through the measuring cable, we recommend to run
the cable in a grounded steel conduit.

6. Measuring
6.1 Engaging
The warming-up period of the torque sensor is approx. 5 min. Afterwards the
measurement can be started.
The warming-up period of the torque sensor is approx. 5 min.
6.2 Direction of Torque
Torque mains clockwise or clockwise torque if the torque acts clockwise when
facing the shaft end. In this case a positive electrical signal is obtained at the
output. Torque sensors by burster praezisionsmesstechnik gmbh & co kg can
measure both, clockwise and counter-clockwise direction.
6.3 Static / Quasi-Static Torques
Static and/or quasi-static torque is a slowly changing torque.
The calibration of the sensor occurs statically on a calibration device.
The applied torque may accept any value up to the nominal torque.
6.4 Dynamic Torques
6.4.1 General
The static calibration procedure of torque sensors is also valid for dynamic
applications.
Note:
The frequency of torques must be smaller than the natural frequency of the
mechanical measurement setup.
The band width must be limited to 70 % of the nominal torque.

Page 16
Torque Sensor Model 8627, 8628, 8632
6.4.2 Natural Resonances
Estimate of the mechanical natural frequencies:
f0= 1 . c. (1 +1 )
2 . f J1 J1
Further methods for the calculation of natural resonances are corresponding
purchasable programs or books /e.g. Holzer-Procedure, Dubbel, Taschenbuch
für den Maschinenbau, Springer Verlag).
Operation of the device in natural resonance can lead to permanent
damages.
6.5 Disturbance Variables
By disturbances, measured value falsications can occur by
►vibrations,
►temperature gradients in the torque sensors,
►temperature changes,
►electrical disturbances,
►magnetic disturbances,
►EMC (electromagnetic disturbances),
therefore avoid these disturbance variables by decoupling of vibrations, cov-
ers, etc.

8. Decommission
►All sensors must be dismantled professionally.
► Do not strike sensor housing with tools.
► Do not apply bending moments on the sensor, e.g. through levers.
► The torque sensor must be supported to avoid falling down during the
dismantling.
9. Transportation and Storage
The transportation of the sensor must occur in suitable packing. For smaller
sensors, stable cartons which are well padded are sufcient (e.g. air cushion
lm, epoxy crisps, paper shaving). The sensor should be tidily packed into
lm. Larger sensor should be packed in cases.
9.1 Transportation
Only release well packed sensors for transportation. The sensor should not be
able to move back and forth in the packing. The sensors must be protected
from moisture.
Only use suitable means of transportation.
9.2 Storage
The storage of the sensors must occur in dry, dust-free rooms, only. Slightly
lubricate shafts an anges with oil before storing (rust).

accordance with applicable legal requirements. Thus you contribute to envi-
ronmental protection.
11. Calibration
At the time of delivery, torque sensors have been adjusted and tested with trace-
able calibrated measuring equipment at factory side. Optionally, a calibration
of the sensors can be carried out.
11.1 Proprietary Calibration
Acquisition of measurement points and issuing of a calibration protocol trace-
able calibrated measuring equipment is being used for the calibration. The
sensor data are being checked during this calibration.
11.2 DKD/DAkkS Calibration
