STRUCTURE AND MODE OF OPERATION

TIM-EC
Magnetic
HBM torque transducer
The TIM-EC receives the measured data flow of the connected torque transducer and
®
provides it as scaled measured values to an EtherCAT and an Ethernet interface (UDP).
Two digital filters that can be shut off are provided for all signal paths. The low-pass filter
is parameterized via the Ethernet interface using an integrated web server.
When the TMC digital signal is connected, the internal shunt signal of the connected
torque transducer can be activated either by a control bit of the EtherCAT or the web
server. The shunt signal produces an output signal corresponding to about 50% of the
nominal (rated) measuring range by means of a misalignment of the strain gauge bridge
in the transducer. It is used to monitor the entire signal path and can be activated by the
user for this purpose.
The supply voltage can be forwarded without extra circuitry measures to supply the con­
nected torque.
