Description
Magtrol Rotary Transmitters are used for signal transmission of
transducers on a rotating part (e.g. engine shaft) to a stationary
system (measuring instrument or PC). They are exceptionally
well-suited for the transmission of low level electrical signals,
such as those from thermocouples, extensometer gauges and
strain gauges, as well as transducers to measure oscillation
and acceleration. RS Transmitters can also provide the power
supply signal to each transducer.
Magtrol’s RS Series Rotary Transmitters do not use sliprings
and are therefore arc-free, making them superior to all other
rotary transmitters that use rings, brushes, wire loops and
similar devices. Easy to use, installing RS Transmitters is as
simple as connecting a cable. They require no power supply,
batteries, software or parameter setup in order to operate.
Standard models have a speed range of 0 to 20 000 rpm and a
high-speed version (up to 40 000 rpm) is available.

Applications
Magtrol Rotary Signal Transmitters are used wherever
measurement of rotating items is needed—in research and
development laboratories, as well as in duration tests on
objects under working conditions. Through high-performance
data transmission, Magtrol RS Transmitters enable the
measurement of pressure, acceleration, oscillation, vibration,
shock, force, torque, temperature and displacement of rotating
parts such as: turbines, jet engines, turbocompressors,
propellers, motors, machine tools, bearings, tilting pads,
molding machine screws and other machines, as well as for
running tests on all types of road and rail vehicles.
