1.0 INTRODUCTION
With this torque sensor the effective torque on the gauge bar can be measured bi-directionally independent from rotational speed. The sensor is delivered as a complete unit with corresponding connecting cable and key stones. The transmitting shaft, the contact-free signal pick-up and the analog signal processing are integrated into the sensor structure. No external amplifier is needed. Based on magnetic field and therefore completely non-contact measurement principle, the sensor works totally maintenance-free over a wide temperature range.

1) The accuracy class implies that taken separately both the linearity deviation as well as the rotational signal uniformity is either lower than or equal to the value of the accuracy class. The accuracy class is not to be identified with the classification following DIN 51309 or EA-10/14.
2) Zero point can be set to 5V by pressing the Tera-button.
3) The factor of transmission declines linearly up to a maximum of 0.5% / 10K with rising temperature due to the reduction of the elasticity.

8.0 OPERA TING INSTRUCTIONS
8.1 Field of Application
The torque sensor is intended for the use in industrial applications. (e.g. test bench).
8.2 Scope of Delivery
The torque sensor set consists of the sensor itself (signal pick-up and signal processing integrated into sensor housing), one connecting cable with a soldered plug, key stones and the instruction manual.
CF 189 9 Rev. E; Dec. 12, 2011
8.3 Installation and Removal
Make sure to install the sensor shafts exactly with the proper aligned connecting shafts. The key stone adapter / square endings of the connecting shafts are to be attached forceless to the corresponding ones of the sensor. The sensor is not designed as a step bearing. No external axial or radial force should be on the housing of the sensor by fixing it. In case that the bending or radial forces could not avoided the ball bearing of the sensor must be double-checked. The allowed bearing forces are listed in (Chapter 6. Dimensions). The M4-screw threads on the side are only for fixing the sensor housing and keeping it from distortion. A maximum cable length of 3m must not be exceeded. Using a cable or connector other than supplied by NCTE, or a similar cable that is of a different length may affect the overall performance of the sensor. DO NOT REMOVE THE SHAFT WITH TORQUE APPLIED TO THE SENSOR.
8.4 Offset Adjustment
If required the zero point output signal (5V) can be adjusted by pressing the Tare-button. By factory default the sensor is set to 5V at Null torque.
8.5 Interface Description
Mechanical connection: The key stone adapters on both ends of the measurement shaft are intended for torque transmission. Electrical connector: On the sensor housing there is a 12-pin socket for the power supply and the signal output.(see Chapter 7. Connection Plan).
8.6 Operation (in regular case or in optimal case)
Optimal measurement parameters may be achieved when the sensor is applied in accordance to the specification. Use the sensor only for short periods of time at the maximum rotational speed. By compliance with the specification the sensor works generally trouble-free and maintenance-free.
8.7 Irregular Operation, Measures against Disturbance
The presence of external electromagnetic or magnetic fields can lead to irregular measurement results. The mechanical overload on the sensor (e.g. exceeding of maximum allowed torque or severe vibrations) may cause damage to the sensor and in consequence the incorrect signal output. In such cases the sensor must be reset (see Point 8.4 Offset Adjustment). If this does not help, do not open the sensor but contact Cooper Instruments directly for assistance.
8.8 Commissioning
After sensor installation pay attention to the followings:
Switch on the power supply unit and check the supply voltage. Peak voltage to the sensor must be avoided! Be sure to verify the power supply voltage before connecting the sensor!
Connect the sensor to the power supply unit by using the delivered cable.
Connect the sensor output to a high-resistance device such as an A/D converter, oscilloscope,
PC measurement board. The sensor should be in mechanical unloaded state while connecting it.
CF 189 10 Rev. E; Dec. 12, 2011
Tare function and error indication: The LXT 980/981 contains a LED button on the housing surface. Pressing the button will set the signal output to 5V. The illumination of the button serves as a function / malfunction indicator.
Functional indicator: LED off: Missing power supply or sensor is damaged. LED on: Sensor is ready.
Error indicator: LED flashes: The sensor is not ready. Flashing of LED can have several possible causes. Various causes are interpreted through a flash code. After each flash code the LED makes a short pause before repeating the code. 2x flashing: Magnet field sensors defective. 4x flashing: Electronics defective.
8.9 Service / Maintenance
Service-contact: Tel.: 800-344-3921 Fax: 540-347-4755
8.10 Disposal
For purposes of disposal please send the device back to Cooper Instruments.
8.11 Handling and Transport
While handling, storing and transporting keep sensor away from magnetic and electromagnetic fields which may exceed the allowed maximum range of EMC listed in Section 3.0, “Technical Characteristics of the Sensor.”
8.12 Precautions
Do not open the sensor under any circumstances.
Do not remove or loosen the locking rings on the shaft ends.
The mounting nut of the socket as well as the fixing screws should not be loosened or tightened.
Use only a separate power supply for the sensor
Use the sensor only according to the specification (Section 3.0 - Technical Characteristics of the
Sensor).
Keep the sensor away from magnetic and electromagnetic fields which may exceed the allowed maximum range of EMC (Section 3.0 - Technical Characteristics of the Sensor)
The sensor is not designed as a step bearing. The existing fixing possibilities serve exclusively for preventing the sensor from distortion.
9.0 CALIBRATION AND ACCURACY CLASS
The exact data about the sensor is given in the enclosed factory calibration certificate. Except the sensor type this certificate also contains the exact calibration data. Each sensor has its own calibration value
CF 189 11 Rev. E; Dec. 12, 2011
which is listed in the calibration certificate as well as on the label of the sensor. The calibration certificate also shows the accuracy of each sensor. The accuracy class of a Cooper Instruments torque sensor means that the largest single deviation of all values represented in percentage is either smaller than or equal to the value listed in the accuracy class.
Calibration value:
The calibration characteristic value shows how much the output signal changes per torque. There is no difference whether the torque is directed to the left or to the right.
Hysteresis:
Hysteresis expresses the biggest difference between upwards and downwards branches at one torque level in percentage.
Rotational Signal Uniformity (RSU):
RSU is a signal variation created during 360° rotation of the sensor shaft without torque. The modulation is the difference between minimal and maximal values during this single rotation. RSU is generated by small homogeneities in the magnetic field and depends mostly on the property of the sensor shaft.
