Inductive Sensor: GE200 HP from Monarch Instrument
|
The GE200HP sensor can be mounted up to 12 inches (30 cm) away from the ignition coil or magneto. The sensor will detect the electromagnetic flux field through metal engine covers. To find the optimal mounting position, simply move the sensor around the high voltage flux source until the display on your tachometer indicates a steady RPM reading. NOTES: Some engines will read ½ the
actual RPM if the detector is pointed at 90 degrees to
the flux source. For accurate and repeatable measurements
ensure that the sensor is mounted firmly and is parallel
to the high voltage flux source. The GE200 HP is connected to the Monarch amplifier module and the amplifier module is connected to your tachometer or data acquisition system. The most popular application is using the GE200 HP with P/N: 4180-406R magnetic amplifier and connecting it to a ACT-3X Panel/Bench top Tachometer to display RPM. See the specification sheet for the ACT-3X, which includes: 0-5 Vdc, 4-20mA, TTL pulse outputs, 2 alarm relays, RS232, USB or Ethernet options. |
The
new Inductive Sensor: GE200 HP is a non-contact electromagnetic
inductive sensor designed for making RPM measurements
on gasoline engines. The sensor will detect the high voltage
flux field being induced from ignition coils or magnetos
on 2 or 4 cycle gasoline engines. The GE200 HP must be
connected to the Monarch amplifier module which provides
input power and a TTL pulse output. The GE200 HP includes
an integral 15 foot (5 m) cable that can be extended to
150 feet (50 m).
