Electronics Measurements & Instrumentation (MSBTE) 2-3, , , , §= Indicating and display device, , The essential Torque in all measuring instruments :, There are three types of torques :, , Deflecting Torque (T,), , The deflecting torque moves the pointer (The moving, system of the instrument) on a calibrated scale., , This torque is proportional to quantity under, measurement. It is produced by using effects of electric, , current such as magnetic effect, heating effect,, chemical effect etc., , 2. Controlling Torque (T,), , 1, , The function of the controlling torque is :, “ (1). To stop the pointer at the correct position., (2) To bring the pointer back to the zero position, when the quantity under measurement is zero., The magnitude of the controlling torque is directly, Proportional to the deflection of the pointer and acts in, opposite in direction to the deflecting torque., When certain quantity (voltage or current) is applied to, the measuring instrument deflecting torque is produced., Magnitude of deflecting torque is directly proportional, to the quantity under measurement. The pointer get, deflected., As soon as pointer get deflected, controlling torque is, produce. Its magnitude goes on increasing as the, deflection of pointer increases., When T, = T, the pointer becomes stationary and, shows the steady reading., Controlling torque is produced by two methods, , (1) Spring control method and, (2) Gravity control method, , r i, , This is the most common method of providing, controlling torque. It makes use one or two spiral hair, springs attach to the spindle of the meter., , The inner ends of both the springs are attached to the, spindle while the outer end of the upper spring is attach, to a lever and the outer end of the lower spring is fixed., The two springs are oppositely wound., , Spring control, , , , , , , , , , , , Ani and Digitay Meten, - The material used for these springs shoulg be Electronics, magnetic having low specific resistance ang c 7 Advanta, ture coefficient of resistance,, temper “.

g@ Advantages, , 4) The spring control meters. can be used in hori, well as in vertical position. sees, 2) In some instruments such as PMMC and dynamometer, these springs can be used as current lead: i, Is to the, coil of the meter. ere, 3) AS ve springs are light in weight, practically there is, no increase in the weight of the moving system hence, high torque to weight ratio (Torque to weight ratio is, the ratio of deflecting torque of meter to the frictional, torque.) Frictional torque is produce at the bearing of, the spindle. The magnitude of this torque is directly, proportional to the weight of the moving system. <, , 4 Controlling torque can be adjusted easily., , @ Disadvantages, , (1) Change of temperature affect the spring length and, , hence the magnitude of the controlling torque., , (2) Accidental stress in the springs may damage them and, springs may get a permanent set if stressed beyond, , their elastic limit., ® 2.

Hence it is present in spring, controlled and gravity controlled instrument., , When the pointer is on zero the magnitude of control, torque is zero and the control weight is in the position, , ” as shown in Fig. 1.7.2 (a)., , When the pointer get deflected through angle @, , j Fig. 1.7.2 (b) shows the position of control weight. Let, , the weight of the control weight is “w” and it is placed, at a distance / from the spindle., , Weight w acts vertically downward and can be resolved, into two component as w cos @ and w sin ©. Vertical, component produces the controlling torque which act in, , . opposite direction to the deflecting torque. Hence the, , controlling torque T, o w sin @, T, =Jwsind, T, =kgsin®, kg is known as gravity control constant weight., Thus, T, sin @, Thus the controlling torque is directly proportional to, , the sine of deflection angle., If Tye I the pointer become stationary when, , Ty =T,, , I sin®, , Hence the scale of gravity control instrument is non, uniform. It is cramped at the beginning and get, expanded towards the full scale deflection., , 0 7, Fig. 2.3.2(c), , A SACHIN SHAH Venture, , , , Tech-Neo Publications... Where Authors inspire innovation
