Sensor Developments, Inc. addresses the needs to measure belt or chain torque on pulley systems with the use of Sensor Developments Inc universal pulley torque sensor.
Capable of accepting various pulley wheels and shaft diameters, this sensor features a highly accurate integrated sensing element, capable of resolving low torque levels while being exposed to high radial loads created by belt drive systems. Use it to replace a standard pulley system for equipment like engines, generators, fluid pumps, or other motor driven equipment and continuously monitor real time torque while in operation.
This sensor can be adapted to a wide range of belt drive systems and can be installed in a dynamometer test stand or on vehicle. Various torque capacities and pulley gears can be designed to meet your specific requirements.

I am developing a machine that requires shaft torque monitoring to control a process . An issue I am encountering is size constraints. The length of an inline sensor will not fit into my drivetrain, so I am looking for a hub sensor that would mount on a 2.75 inch shaft and attach to an 8 in. diameter flat cog belt. I need to measure 11,000 In./ lbs torque. Do you have any products that would work and what is pricing and availability ?
Thanks

Dir Sir,
I’m Interested in “Universal Pulley Torque Sensor”, it fit for my projecy which I working on, can I have more detail information.
BTW, do you have any representative in Malaysia who can provide technical advice and support?
