Existing reviews of Static Torque Sensor, Disc Type, 0-10 Nm
We're calibrating a torque sensor using a differential amplifier. After calibrating with a 45Nm weight, the amplifier output stalls at 3.5V when measuring higher torques, with only a 7mV difference between the sensor outputs. We're concerned about possible sensor damage, but the sensor still shows varying output when torque is applied. How can we determine if the sensor is still functional?

1. From your description, the amplifier gain adjustment does not change to a certain extent, and the range is exceeded. Generally, the signal between the amplifier and the sensor is changed by adding or subtracting resistance.
2. How to judge whether the sensor is normal: Under power supply (5-12V constant voltage value), red and black are power supply, and the green and white lines are measured with a multimeter. The multimeter is adjusted to the DC 200mV gear. When the voltage changes with the torque force, it proves that there is no problem with the sensor. If it is 50NM and the sensitivity is 1.0mv/v, then under 5V power supply, 50NM corresponds to the green and white line output of 5Vmv; and if 10V power supply, 50NM corresponds to the output of 10mV.
Does this require an amplifier to read the output signal?

Yes, generally it is. The sensitivity of this Static Torque Sensor is 1.5-2.0 mV/V, and we have transmitters or amplifiers to power it and transmit torque signal into standard 4-20mA, 0-5V, 0-10V, or RS485 signals. See on SKU: ATO-LCTR-OA or SKU: ATO-LCTR-OAR.
