Reducing Fuel Consumption and Emissions by Load Monitoring of Ship Engines

The new T40MC torque transducer is ideal for retrofitting of existing ship engines to allow load monitoring.
• The transducer is integrated directly at the coupling with neutral installation require-ments
• The T40MC is a marine-certified product
HBM’s new, high-precision T40MC torque transducer acquires the load signal from ship engines. This is essential for reducing emissions and saving fuel, for example, in dual-fuel or gas engines. Installing the T40MC in existing ship en-gines is especially easy owing to its neutral installation space requirements: The transducer can be simply fitted into the coupling.
The T40MC allows the direct torque measurement up to 125 kN·m. The transducer is availa-ble as a complete package with expandable analog and digital signal outputs. It is suitable for both integration into new and retrofitting of existing ship engines and 100 % maintenance free due to its non-contacting transmission of the measured values. Safe operation is ensured by official certification (including the MP60 transducer electronics) for use on ships.
HBM’s torque transducers for the marine industry meet the high requirements for use on ships and are marine-certified. Customer-specific versions of the new T40MC torque trans-ducer are available as well.

New miniature piezo force sensor PACEline CFTplus covers huge measuring range
HBM’s new PACEline CFTplus series of piezoelectric force transducers is an ideal choice for making measurements in the production and manufacturing sectors. CFTplus sensors are particularly suitable for covering very large measuring ranges, for e.g., when using presses with a large measuring range.
The CFTplus series’ piezoelectric force transducers are calibrated for three measuring ranges and, thus, can be used immediately upon installation. A calibration procedure does not become necessary at…

Measuring large compressive forces economically: New C6B force transducer from H …
With the new C6B force transducer, HBM offers a flexible solution for economical acquisition of large compressive forces. The sensor is cost-effective and specially designed for rugged and dynamic applications.
The C6B force transducer acquires nominal (rated) forces from 200 kN to 10 MN with an HBM accuracy class of 0.5. Typical applications include the construction industry, heavy industry and metalworking as well as dynamic measurement tasks in research and development.…
