For Immediate Release

Sturtevant Richmont has designed and developed three new lines of torque transducers for use with their System 4/5 Digital Torque Tester.

The STT-L Series features an L-shaped mount integrated into the frame to expedite mounting to a vertical or horizontal surface. The predrilled mounting holes are aligned to the center of the transducer in either orientation for positive stability under load. The new transducers weigh less to permit easy transport, even though they retain S/R's traditional use of stainless steel for the measuring element. They are accurate from 10% to 100% of rated capacity, and are available in the most popular sizes.

The STT-QC Series features an adapter plate to permit quick physical connection to the S/R ML1000 or ML 2000 Mechanical Loaders. This series retains the S/R stainless steel measuring element, yet features reduced weight through a new aluminum frame. This series is also accurate from 10% to 100% of capacity, and the new detachable cable increases ease of installation on the loader.

The STT-P Series is the direct replacement for the earlier TT Series in most sizes. These feature a detachable cable for easier installation, and the new aluminum frame retains the earlier bolt pattern. This facilitates mounting to S/R's ML 250 Mechanical Loader, as well as to earlier accessories.
