7 Shunt signal
The special torque flange delivers an electrical shunt signal that can be
activated from the evaluation unit for measuring chains with HBM components.
The transducer generates a shunt signal of about 50% of the nominal (rated)
torque; the precise value is specified on the type plate.
After activation of push button no. 15 (see Fig. 6.1), the shunt signal is activated
for a time span of 5s. Adjust the amplifier output signal to the shunt signal
supplied by the connected transducer to adapt the amplifier to the transducer.
The transducer should not be under load when the shunt signal is being measured, as the
shunt signal is mixed additively.
Triggering the shunt signal
Push button no. 15 (see Fig. 6.1) on the evaluation unit to activate the shunt signal for a time
span of 5s.
