RTSX Rotary Torque Sensor


+ Enlarge Picture

  

The Rotary Torque Sensor is the ideal torque-auditing tool for testing the actual torque being applied on the assembly application. By connecting a rotary torque sensor between an electric or pneumatic tool and assembly application, you can monitor the torque being applied from the tool to fastener or bolt.

Accuracy ± .25% of full scale.
  • Use Torque Sensor with most hand tools, power tools or rotational measurement applications.
  • Connects between the power tool and the joint. Monitors actual torque being applied from the driver to the fastener.
  • Features “ARC II” technology, an instant auto-recognition system of the RTSX connected to the PTT or LTT.
  • Bi-directional.
