TORQUETRAK TPM2 Non-Contact Shaft Torque Measurement System

The TORQUETRAK TPM2 is a continuous, non-contact torque and power monitoring system engineered by Binsfeld Engineering Inc. for marine propeller shafts and industrial drive systems. Utilizing a split rotating collar and stationary power ring assembly, the TORQUETRAK TPM2 bolts directly around existing shafts without requiring shaft removal, machining, or custom modifications.

Designed for long-term continuous operation in harsh maritime environments, the TORQUETRAK TPM2 relies on inductive power and data transfer across an air gap between rotating and stationary components. With zero physical contact or wear surfaces, the system delivers high-speed bi-directional telemetry (up to 4,800 samples/second) directly to vessel PLCs, SCADA networks, or diagnostic PCs for real-time propulsion monitoring and fuel efficiency tracking.

Key Features of the TORQUETRAK TPM2

• Split Clamp-On Design: Split rotating collar and stationary power ring bolt together around the shaft without cutting or modifying existing machinery

• Non-Contact Inductive Transfer: Transmits power to shaft electronics and extracts torque data wirelessly across an air gap, eliminating wear parts and slip rings

• High-Speed Bi-Directional Communications: Interface directly with PCs, PLCs, or telemetry gateways with user-selectable sample rates up to 4,800 samples/second

• System Status Indicators: On-board diagnostic LEDs confirm operational status at a glance, simplifying installation and maintenance troubleshooting

• Robust Marine Construction: Heavy-duty hardware built to withstand high vibration, temperature swings, and severe environmental exposure

• Accommodates Diameter Tolerances: Flex-tolerant rotating collar design clamps securely onto standard shafting using ordinary hand tools
