Baumer Hubner GTR9 Tacho

Baumer Hubner GTR9 Tacho Generator FAQ

1. What is the Baumer Hubner GTR9 Tacho Generator?
   The GTR9 is a high-performance DC tachometer designed for measuring rotational speed. It comes with a 16 mm hollow bore and is offered in two voltage outputs:

   • GTR9.16L/460: 60 V at 1000 RPM
   • GTR9.16L/420: 20 V at 1000 RPM
     Both models feature temperature compensation and a clear backing plate for easy visual inspection.

2. What are the key specifications?

   • Hollow Bore: 16 mm for flexible shaft fitting
   • Models: 60V/1000 RPM (GTR9.16L/460) or 20V/1000 RPM (GTR9.16L/420)
   • Temperature Compensation: Standard for stable operation under varying temperatures
   • Clear Backing Plate: Provides visibility of internal components
   • Ex Stock Availability: Ready for immediate shipping

3. Which industries use the GTR9 Tacho Generator?

   • Elevators and Escalators: For precise control of motor speed
   • Automated Control Systems: Reliable feedback in high-precision operations
   • Packaging Machinery: Ensures consistent speed for production lines
   • CNC & Milling Machines: Facilitates accurate speed monitoring
   • Heavy-Duty Industrial Equipment: Delivers robust performance in demanding environments

4. How do the GTR9.16L/460 and GTR9.16L/420 models differ?

   • GTR9.16L/460: Outputs 60 V at 1000 RPM
   • GTR9.16L/420: Outputs 20 V at 1000 RPM
     Apart from the voltage output, they share the same hollow bore design, temperature compensation feature, and ex stock availability.

5. Why is temperature compensation important?
   Temperature compensation ensures that the tachogenerator provides accurate speed measurements even when ambient temperatures fluctuate. This feature minimizes errors due to thermal expansion or contraction of internal components, maintaining consistent output across a range of operating conditions.

6. What does “Ex stock” mean?
   “Ex stock” indicates that the GTR9 Tacho Generator is readily available from inventory. Customers can expect rapid order fulfillment without waiting for manufacturing lead times.
