Naval Shaft Power Meter System

The Datum Electronics Series 420 Naval Shaft Power Meter System accurately measures the on-shaft torque (kNm), the speed of the shaft rotation (rpm) and the power (kW) that is goingthrough the shaft. The data is transmitted from the shaft in a digital format that can be processed and scaled off-shaft. The data transmitted contains the torque level, the shaft speed and diagnostics data such as the on shaft voltage and power.

The Series 420 Naval Shaft Power Meter System fits ship shaft diameters between (160mm - 1100mm). The shaft installation comprises a standard stator unit that provides power to the on-shaft electronics and conditions the output signals. The stator housings are manufactured to cater for a range of shaft sizes.The systems have been through rigorous UK MOD and USA MIL testing programmes for the harshest of environments, and are therefore verified in a number of marine conditions including DEFSTAN and MILSPEC.
