CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
1.0 Safety Summary
High current, voltage, and rotating parts can cause serious or fatal injury. The use of electric machinery, like all other uses of
concentrated power and rotating equipm
maintain electric machinery in accordance with applicable provisions of the National Electrical Code and sound local
practices. Failure to comply with these precautions or with specific warnings elsewhere in this manual violates safety
standards of design, manufacture, and intended use of the instrument. Dynapar assumes no liability for the customer's failure
to comply with these requirements.
Rotating Machinery
Avoid contact with rotating parts. Avoid by-passing or renderi
extended exposure in close proximity to machinery with high noise levels. Use proper care and procedures in handling,
lifting, installing, operating and maintaining the equipment.
Before Installation
Safe maintenance practice with qualified personnel is imperative. Before starting m
(1) equipment connected to the shaft will not cause mechanical rotation, (2) main machine windings have been disconnected
and secured from all electrical power sources, and (3) all accessory devices associates with the work area have been deenergized. If high potential insulation test is required, follow procedures and precautions outlined in NEMA standards MG-1.

1.2 Description
The RIM Tach
feedback from both AC and DC electric motors with pulse counts ranging from 60 through 2048 pulses per revolution. The
RIM Tach
magneto-resistive technology capable of withstanding the harshest industrial environments. This ensures precise and
consistent digital motor speed feedback.
The NorthStar RIM Tach
resistance sensor module with encapsulated surface mount electronics. The encapsulation provides resistance to water, oil
mist, dirt, high temperatures, and other harsh environments. The sensor module includes a 10-pin quick connector requiring
only a screwdriver for final electrical installation. The non-contact magneto-resistive sensor and rugged magnetized pulse
wheel are designed and machined to function properly without any adjustments. The RIM Tach
reliable speed signals for many monitoring and control applications, and is a standard feedback device for AC and DC
variable speed drives. The unit is bi-directional providing square wave outputs.
