1. IntroductionAI-TEK TACHTROL 10 &30 (TT) and TACHPAK 10 & 30 (TP) series instruments aredual input, industrial tachometers used to measure the rate of events from a givenprocess. Using the proportional signal outputs from either passive or active sensors, TTand TP can measure, monitor and react to events as simple as the speed of a shaft, or ascomplex as relating the differential in speed of 2 independent rotating objects.TACHTROL plus provides additional function as a remote display and also serves as agateway for secure, remote programming. Both TT and TP share a common processingplatform. This commonality allows both to perform identical tachometry functions,streamlines programming and minimizes the learning curve. The main differencebetween the two is the characteristic integrated display function found in all TACHTROLseries tachometers.1.1. OverviewA speed sensor placed near a moving target such as a rotating gear generates aseries of pulses whose frequency is proportional to the speed of the target. Thisinformation is utilized by the tachometer as the basis for its function. Some keyfeatures are as follows. See specification section for specific model and optionapplicability.• Wide range of AC or DC power• Greatly improved instrument accuracy, processing speed and response time.• Frequency, period or counter modes.• User-defined inputs for logic level, averaging, alarm set points and hysteresis,• Signal normalization and math functions allow mathematical manipulation ofinput signals. Results can be displayed along with user-defined units.• Accepts sinusoidal and square wave inputs as found in variable reluctance anddigital output speed sensors.• Accepts bi-directional sensor inputs and will decode quadrature or directionsignal logic• 2 solid state relays (fast response time) and 2 mechanical relays (high power)• Analog output: 0-20mA, 4-20mA, -20-0-(+) 20mA (can be used with bidirectionalsensor)• Two programming methods: Front panel on display or USB2.0 connectivity toTACHLINK, a PC / Windows-based GUI (Graphical User Interface). TheGUI can be used to display data, program, perform security functions,diagnostics, analog output calibration and real-time data logging.• In the case of tachometer instruments embedded in explosion proof or NEMA4X enclosures, remote access solves the problem of programming by makinguse of an IR link to allow full front panel control via a hand-held remote.• Utility RS485 communication also allows full GUI function but over longerdistances (up to 8000 ft)1
