Eddy-Current Probe Scaling and Gap Voltage Validation
The tachometer accepts inputs from proximity probes, magnetic pickups, or TTL signals. Internal conditioning validates probe gap voltages against -10 VDC reference points to ensure installation integrity. Cross-talk suppression maintains fidelity when dual transducers are used for internal voting logic.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can the tachometer module process dual transducer inputs? A: Yes, it accepts dual inputs with internal voting logic for overspeed and underspeed detection.
Q: What is the typical response time for trip relay activation? A: Relay switching occurs in less than 1 millisecond.
Q: Are the relay contacts isolated? A: Yes, SPDT epoxy-sealed relays provide isolated trip outputs for external shutdown circuits.
Field Installation Guidelines
- Insert into designated rack slots with full connector engagement.
- Ensure probe wiring is shielded and grounded at the rack end only.
- Route input cabling separately from high-voltage conductors to minimize induced noise.
- Validate probe gap voltage near -10 VDC before commissioning.
- Configure overspeed and underspeed setpoints via rack interface prior to turbine startup.
