The Multiplex RPM Sensor is designed for recording the speed of rotating components such as propellers, wheels, and shafts. It provides accurate RPM measurements, which can be crucial for applications like adapting propellers to engines. Developed and built in Germany, the sensor assures high quality and reliability.
Key Features
- German Engineering: Developed and built in Germany, ensuring high-quality construction and performance.
- Versatile Use: Suitable for measuring the RPM of various rotating components like propellers, wheels, and shafts.
- MSB Sensor Bus: The sensor is part of the Multiplex Sensor Bus (MSB) system, allowing intelligent sensor communication.
- Multiple Connections: Up to 16 sensors can be connected in series without the need for an additional sensor box.
Settings and Functions
Using MULTImate or Sensor DataManager:
- Address: The display line on the transmitter where the speed is shown can be set.
- Alarm (High): Sets the upper RPM limit, triggering an alarm on the transmitter if exceeded.
- Alarm (Low): Sets the lower RPM limit, triggering an alarm on the transmitter if dropped below.
- Option: Provides additional output for minimum, average, or maximum speed.
- Address Option: Sets the display line on the transmitter for the option value.
- Blade Count: Configures the number of propeller blades for accurate RPM measurement.
Technical Details
- MSB (Multiplex Sensor Bus):
- Intelligent Sensors: Sensors communicate through the MSB, allowing for a streamlined setup and data management.
- Sensor Integration: No additional sensor box is required, simplifying the installation process.
Application Examples
- Propeller Adaptation: Measures RPM to help adapt propeller configurations to engine specifications.
- Speed Monitoring: Tracks the speed of various rotating components to ensure optimal performance and safety.
