Our laboratory recently completed the NVLAP on-site accreditation process. The first on-site since 2019!

We provide calibration services for your torque sensors to: ⬇

➡ Extend the life of your torque instrumentation
➡ Help you achieve efficiency and maintain accuracy
➡ Save you from possible downtime

See our updated certificate and scope http://bit.ly/TorqueCal

Measuring and applying correct torque to equipment can prevent costly breakdowns and improve efficiencies in all types of drilling operations, such as:

✔ Leg load balancing for jack-up oil rigs
✔ Torque monitoring and/or calibration of make-up/breakout machines
✔ Load distribution and balancing for winches and hoists, and
✔ Measure actuation torque for valves
✔ Top drive torque measurement and control, in-line measurment of torque as PMI of motors, pumps, compressors and more

Because of its extremely high immunity to noise interference, high
safety margins, and maintenance-free design, the MCRT® 39000X has been certified by both ABS and DNV to become a standard for oil field use.

We don't talk about reaction torque sensors often and they're important too!

Do you know what reaction torque sensors are good for?

💥 Yielding valuable information about how a process is running
💥 Improving product consistency
💥 Providing load, hence material properties
💥 Measuring torque transferred to ground
💥 Indicating safe operating limits, maximum loads and breaking points

We've been manufacturing torque sensors since 1960.

Why is our tagline “The World’s Best Torque Instruments Since 1960”?

Well, how many companies receive and answer emails like this…

“Hi, I have an old Himmelstein MCRT Torquemeter, model 2-04TH or 2-04TII, I can't tell the last two characters. Do you have a data sheet for this model? It's a 25,000rpm, 50 LB-IN model.”

The 2-04TH is over 43 years old and it’s still in use!

So we sent the data sheet and we’re happy to do it.

How many other torque measurement instruments do you think are still in use 43 years later?

Let us know when you’re ready for the best torque measurement solution for your application.

Here are 4 things we want to do for you:
↓

1️⃣ Find solutions for your application and deliver them.
2️⃣ Listen to you like you've never been heard before.
3️⃣ Give you time to ask questions and provide answers you need.
4️⃣ Be there for you after sale.

Twisting and turning?

Protect your equipment by measuring torque.

There are many variations of torquemeter designs, however the same elements are used for reaction (non-rotating or static) and rotating (or dynamic) sensors.

Contact us when you need to discuss solutions.

Here are the questions we get asked most often.
↓
→ How do I protect my torque sensor from torque spikes?

We have designed our torquemeters for infinite fatigue life provided they are operated at below ½ the overload rating.

→ Can I operate my torque transducer in the overload range?

This is not advisable. Operation at higher torques won't damage the unit, but frequent operation in that region will reduce the sensors fatigue life and may ultimately result in a fatigue failure.

Don’t go it alone. Our engineers are always happy to help. Shoot us an email or give us a call if you need help. 1-847-843-3300 or [email protected]
