    The tach timer is usually used to schedule engine maintenance, although it is just an approximation of "Time in service" which is used to time and schedule aircraft maintenance. Time in service is defined in 14 CFR 1.1 [ 2 ] as the actual time in the air, whereas tach time measures engine revolutions, which would still count time on the ground ...

    Tachymeter scale on a Citizen watch bezel. A tachymeter (pronounced / t æ ˈ k ɪ m ə t ər /) is a scale sometimes inscribed around the rim of an analog watch with a chronograph.It can be used to conveniently compute the frequency in inverse-hours of an event of a known second-defined period, such as speed (distance over hours) based on travel time (distance over speed), or measure distance ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_core_gauge

    An auto tachometer has a sweep of about 240-250 degrees and typically uses an air core gauge. An air core gauge is a specific type of rotary actuator in an analog display gauge that allows an indicator to rotate a full 360 degrees. It is used in gauges and displays, most commonly automotive instrument clusters.

  5. Tachometer - Wikipedia

    A tachometer that can indicate up to 7000 RPM (left) A tachometer (revolution-counter, tach, rev-counter, RPM gauge) is an instrument measuring the rotation speed of a shaft or disk, as in a motor or other machine. [1] The device usually displays the revolutions per minute (RPM) on a calibrated analogue dial, but digital displays are ...

    Wild brand subtense bar. Another device used in tacheometry to measure distance between the measuring station and a desired point is the subtense bar. [2] This is a rigid rod, usually of a material insensitive to change in temperature such as invar, of fixed length (typically 2 metres (6.6 ft)).

  7. Tachograph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tachograph

    Earlier tachograph heads displayed the mode as a thin line in one of four concentric tracks within the activity band. These heads are known as manual heads as the activity was manually selected using the mode switch. Automatic heads succeeded manual heads, and differ from them in two main areas. Firstly, the automatic head will always display ...
