Tachometer Generator (optional)
General
The generator is a permanent-magnet, alternating-
current device that produces a linear voltage in
direct proportion to the speed at which it is driven.
In the governing circuit of the control system, the
voltage produced by the generator represents the
actual speed of the unit. This voltage is amplified
and compared with a constant voltage in the
reference circuit, representing the desired speed of
the unit, to effect speed control.
As shown in Figure 2-2, the maximum output speed
of the generator is approximately 55 to 60 volts.
Frequency varies with the speed to a maximum of
500 to 600 Hz. This generator is designed to
operate with equal output and efficiency in either
direction of rotation.
The use of an AC tachometer generator eliminates

maintenance of brushes, slip rings, or commutator
is required.
The Alnico magnet employed in this unit (Figure 2-
3) retains its field strength over a long period of
time, assuring a constant generator output at a
given speed. This magnet should not be subjected
to sharp impacts, abuse, or temperatures higher
than the maximum operating temperature of the
unit, as this will result in a weakening of the field
strength. Should removal of
