Shaft Power Measurement Kits
Shaft Power Measurement Kits
The Datum Shaft Power Measurement Kit open the opportunity to collect torque, power and RPM data accurately on site. The Shaft Power Measuring Kit from Datum Electronics provides engineers with the opportunity to measure and monitor shaft power accurately in the field. The kit can be applied using minimal skills in six simple steps and provide accurate data on a portable PC within less than an hour.
Key Features
The Shaft Power Measurement Kit is ideal for single day trials, to access power levels and torque characteristics such as start-up or maximum torque levels.
It is designed to be easily fitted with a minimal of on-site operations. The strain gauges used are supplied with the connector to remove the need for soldering and have an encapsulated coating to simplify environmental sealing.
The system provides an output of shaft torque, shaft rpm and shaft power. The instrumentation has an electronics accuracy of 0.1%
Each Kit is supplied with a simple to use PC utility to display and log the data and optional interface is available to provide 4-20mA or +/-10vdc for logging and control systems.

The Datum Electronics Shaft Power Measurement kit is designed to measure the on-shaft torque for trials and torque testing applications on rotating shafts from 30mm in diameter. It can be used as simple testing of power levels or as a key tool within extended trials to assess fuel efficiency or performance improvements.
The system is designed for measuring power and torque on drive shafts, applications including marine ship shafts, prop shafts and vehicle drive shafts.
Measurement & Analysis
The Datum Electronics Torque Trials Kit does more than just measure Torque; it can be used to verify power outputs from engines and motors.
THE FOLLOWING DATA CAN BE MEASURED AND ANALYSED:
- Power Transmission
Torque Trials
Power Transients
- Peak Torque Levels
Power Delivery
Can also assist with Shaft Vibration measurement
The main advantage of the shaft power and torque trials kit is how easy the instrumentation is to install, set up, test and operate. The trials kit consists of three main component elements making this trials application system as easy and simple and possible.
