The GE-2500 diesel engine tachometer uses rotation speed of an alternator to measure engine rotation speed. With FFT calculation, this tachometer achieves reliable and stable measurement for both diesel and gasoline engines.

The OM-1500 is a compact type detector designed for measuring rotation speed of an alternator. It detects magnetic flux leakage from an alternator. It is used to combine with the GE-2500. (The OM-1200 can also be used with the GE-2500.)

 

(*It may not be measured or may be changed the measurement range depending on the engine and motor type. For more details, please contact your nearest distributor or send us an e-mail, overseas@ONO SOKKI.co.jp)

 

Features

  • Rotation of both gasoline and diesel engines can be measured.

By using rotation speed of an alternator, the rotation speed of the engine can be measured regardless of engine types and number of cylinders.

 

  • Auto calibration function is provided. The rotation speed ratio of the alternator and engine is calibrated automatically.

The rotation speed ratio between the alternator and engine is required to calculate the engine rotation speed. Calibration must be executed before measurement to find the rotation speed ratio.

 

  • Easy setup.
    The sensor can be set any place of an alternator.

Possible to measure while driving

 

  • Enables small signal detection by FFT calculation

High noise tolerance and stable measurement


The GE-2500 can find solutions for engine rotation measurement

Comparison of the GE-2500 and the previous model (6-cylinder engine)

The GE-2500 enables stable measurement in entire range even when the engine rotation speed is increased.

 

 

Measurement method

STEP1 Attach the sensor (OM-1500 or OM-1200) to an alternator
1. Attach the sensor (OM-1500 or OM-1200) perpendicular to the alternator’s rotating shaft.
2. Connect the sensor to 「MAIN」 in the rear panel of the GE GE-2500.
     
STEP1 Execute the calibration to find the rotation speed ratio between the alternator and engine. Set the rotation speed ratio at the GE-2500.
Select the setting method from the followings
●Setting up using a sensor for calibration
●Setting up manually (select one from three methods.)
  【Attention】 Please idle the engine during calibration.
Setup using a sensor for calibration
Measure the rotation speed of the engine and alternator at the same time, and calculate the rotation speed ratio between them automatically.
 

Setup manually
(select one from three methods.)
• Input the pulley ratio, number of alternator's poles

• Input the rotation ratio (rotation speed ration of the alternator and engine)

• Input engine rotation speed at idling 
 
STEP1 Remove the sensor for calibration and start measurement by the sensor for measurement  (OM-1500 or OM-1200)
The rotation speed ratio calibrated is stored to the GE-2500 main unit automatically. (up to five conditions)。

To use the GE-2500, the alternator and engine must be running in synch with each other. The measurement error may become large when the special kind of alternator is used or the belt between the alternator and engine is loose.
It can not be measured or a measurement error may become large depending on the structure of an alternator.
