A3-Lite: non-contact Bending &
Torque-Sensor-Kit Family
The family of A3-Lite Sensor Kit’s can be used in static applications (A3-LS) to measure bending forces and in dynamic applications (A3-LD) on any ferro-magnetic objects.
Key features
- Works on Ferro-magnetic objects (shaft, beam, tube, …) of any size (*)
- Can be provided as fully calibrated Torque Sensor System (A3-LD)
- Sensing Module will not be damaged by mechanical over-load
- Does not require any magnetically processing of the Test-Object
- Measures mechanical forces bidirectional (positive and negative forces)
The A3-Lite can be applied to limitless applications and onto different Test-Objects of almost all sizes (*) as this is a contactless measurement principle (the Sensing Module is reusable).
The A3-Lite Sensor Kit consists of two items (the Sensing Module and the Sensor Interface Box) that are connected by a 1.5-meter cable with each other.
A3-LS:
Using a simple but reliable “clamp” or “fixture” the A3-LS Sensing Module can be mounted directly onto a non-moving Test-Object. The user can then detect and measure changes in the mechanical stresses that are applied to the Test-Object (like Bending or Torque forces). Depending on the stiffness and size of the Test-Object the user may want to calibrate the measurement equipment.
A3-LD:
The A3-Lite “D” Sensor Kit is a factory calibrated Torque Sensor System and is already mounted onto a 25 mm diameter and free rotating shaft. The recommended Full-Scale (FS) Torque measurement range is +/-125 Nm. The user has the option to remove the Sensing Module from the provided fixture and then use it as a A3-LS Sensor for static measurements on different Ferro-magnetic objects.
Easy to use: Plug & Play
The A3-Lite Kits are powered by an external DC power supply (+7.5 Volt min to +24 Volt max) and provides an analog signal output on a built-in BNC connector. The analog output voltage is proportional to the applied mechanical stresses to the Ferro-magnetic Test-Object. The optimal measurement range for the A3-Lite Sensor Kit is +/-40 MPa (Mega Pascale) and the output signal update rate is 100 measurements per second.
The user can increase and decrease the signal gain using the up- and down-buttons at the Interface Box. By pressing the “zero” force button, any signal offset will be “zeroed”. (2.5 Volt)
The Active-3 Lite Sensors take measurements from Test-Objects that are coated in any paint or are slightly rusty. The measurement principle will not age or be harmed when overstressing the Test-Object. There is no need for any kind of treatment of the Test-Object: This is a true plug-and-play measurement system.
