Installation takes 2 hours without the need for hazardous chemicals, tools, etc
It can be monitored both on site - and remotely, allowing for flexibility and convenience in monitoring.
Our system uses two non-invasive MPU sensors to calculate the torque of the propeller. Both sensors are calibrated once in a lifetime without any customization.
The system's reliability and accuracy of torque output are not affected by external conditions like dust, dirt, and temperature.
Torque Sense has no speed restrictions ; it works well with any type of speed and gives the correct output.
Torque measurement plays a crucial role in ensuring emission control on marine vessels. The measurement of torque assesses the power output of the propulsion system, which directly impacts fuel consumption and emissions.
To monitor the power and torque transmitted
by the shaft.
In certain cases, it may be essential
to limit the torque and Power on the drive equipment to maintain efficiency, fuel consumption, or emissions. The system can give an output signal if torque falls outside a specified range.
| Features | Torque Measurement Using Strain Gauges | TorqueSense by Neptunus |
|---|---|---|
| Installation | Transmitting an electrical signal from the strain gauge on a rotating shaft to the control unit is always challenging. | Our system is non-invasive, and it can be easily installed without the need for customization, making it more convenient and versatile. |
| Ease of Use | This method may require specialized knowledge and expertise for customization and installation. It may also involve additional steps, such as calibration. | TorqueSense is designed to be user-friendly and easy to install. It provides an interactive dashboard that allows for effortless monitoring and analysis of torque data. |
| Methodology | In this technique, strain is measured on the shaft to derive the twist angle, which is then used to calculate the torque. | In this technique, the twist angle is directly measured, and from this measurement, the torque is calculated. |
| Accuracy and Precision | Torque monitoring using strain gauges can provide accurate torque measurements when properly installed and calibrated. | Our system is designed to be a reliable method for calculating torque. It provides accurate and precise torque angle calculations, ensuring the integrity of the measured data. |
| Compatibility | This method is typically customized for a specific shaft. Once installed, it primarily monitors the torque on that particular shaft. | This solution offers compatibility with any shaft, making it more versatile. It can be used on different types of shafts without the need for customization. |
| Speed Limitations | At low to moderate speeds, they provide accurate and reliable measurements. | The system has no speed restrictions. Regardless of the speed, TorqueSense delivers consistent and precise results. |
