Binsfeld TorqueTrak TPM2 torque & power monitoring system

Installation of the TorqueTrak TPM2

The torque meter consists of a stationary ring and a rotating ring.

• Stationary ring: Installed around the shaft and is mounted to a custom fabricated mounting bracket that fits your ship.
• Rotatory ring: Installed on the shaft via bolts and contains a strain gage as well as a transmitter module.

The transmitter and strain gauge is powered via induction when the ring is turning and sends digitized signals to the interface on the stationary mount. The stationary interface then communicates the data to a connected host device through a bi-directional RS-485 Modbus interface.
