Power tongs measurement

The time for trusting pressure transducers to monitor the actual torque applied to mount the drill string is coming to an end. There is clear trend among customers which requires that the torque applied on every drill pipe connection is logged, with a demand for greater reliability and accuracy.

Older torque tools can be also equipped with different force sensor solutions between the torque element and the back-up.

SENSY manufactures triple certified (ATEX, IECEx and CSA (CA/US) load pins which are adaptable to a significant number of existing power tongs.

We also manufacture reference torque transducers for calibrating power tong measurement systems, based either on pressure transducers or force transducers.
