Product Description

The 40PA58-53-TEFC-S is a tachometer adapter kit from Kollmorgen. The adapter kit is intended for use with a range of PMDC motors from Pacific Scientific. The small-size kit helps to monitor the speed of the permanent magnet DC motor using control electronics or with a readout. The companyoffers to ship the kit worldwide with a one-year warranty period. The tachometer adapter kit is compatible with SRF53 type motors that are equipped with TEFC enclosures. These motors have a180V voltage rating and rotate at 1750RPM speed. The motors are CSA Certified and UL Recognized. They come with Class H insulation.

The tachometer highlights the speed of the motor on an analog display using a needle or a digital display. A DC tachometer includes a voltmeter with a high-resistant value to indicate the speed. It is used in motors of various vehicles to determine the rotation rate of the crankshaft of the engines. The tachometer unit helps in selecting the gear and throttle settings according to the driving conditions.

The DC motor in which the tachometer adapter kit is mounted has large sealed bearings and a polyester impregnated armature. The polyester impregnation renders both mechanical and electrical integrity. Anti-cog magnets ensure the smooth operation of the motor even at low speed, while the permanent magnet fields render a wider speed range than wound field motors. The motor also features a fused and rugged commutator and constant force brush springs with field-replaceable brushes. The tachometer adapter kit must always be mounted under the hood of the motor and positioned in such a way that the tachometer will not have any contact with excessive heat sources.
