INSTALLATION Location The BA514G Tachometer is housed in a robust IP66 glass reinforced polyester (GRP) enclosure incorporating an armoured glass window and stainless steel fittings, making it suitable for exterior mounting in most industrial on-shore and off-shore installations. The Tachometer should be positioned where the display is not in continuous direct sunlight.
The BA514G complies with the requirements of the European EMC Directive 2014/30/EU. For specified immunity all wiring should be in screened twisted pairs, with the screens earthed at a common point. Units of measurement and tag marking on scale card.
5.0 CONFIGURATION & CALIBRATION The BA514G Tachometer is configured and calibrated via four front panel push buttons. All the configuration functions are contained in an easy to use intuitive menu that is shown diagrammatically in Fig 6. Each menu function is summarised in section 5.3 of this manual and each summary includes a reference to more detailed information.
