AMS Instrumentation and Calibration is promoting the Interface T29 Slip Ring Hex Drive Rotary Torque Transducer for industrial measurement and control applications.
The compact torque sensor is designed for screw driving systems and dynamic rotary torque measurement.
Its slip ring design includes a drive hexagon and output hexagon socket with a quick-action chuck.
That configuration is intended to support simple integration, fast tool changes and reliable continuous rotation measurement.
Where could the T29 fit in water operations?
Water utilities and contractors rely on rotating equipment across treatment plants, pump stations and field maintenance programs.
Torque data can support installation checks, maintenance verification and testing of components such as actuators, valve drives, pump assemblies, dosing skids and mixing systems.
In those settings, a compact rotary torque transducer can help confirm whether mechanical systems are operating within expected limits.
It can also support repeatable testing where crews or manufacturers need to verify torque transfer before equipment is returned to service.

Why does compact torque measurement matter?
The T29 has a very short axial length and high torsional stiffness.
AMS said those features help provide precise torque transfer while reducing installation space requirements.
That can matter in packaged equipment, workshop test rigs or specialised machinery where access is limited.
This compact torque measurement can support quality assurance before assets are deployed into the field. It can also help reduce uncertainty during equipment testing, particularly where a poor mechanical setting could affect reliability or service life.
What features support industrial use?
The T29 is designed for high-accuracy torque measurement in demanding industrial environments.
The quick-action chuck supports faster tool changes.
The slip ring design supports continuous rotation measurement.
Optional TEDS functionality to IEEE 1451.4 is available, helping simplify sensor identification and setup.
These features are most relevant where repeatability, documentation, and efficient test procedures matter. That includes OEM manufacturing, workshop calibration, equipment repair, commissioning support, and process control environments associated with pumps, valves, and other rotating assets.
