Rheintacho UK Ltd

We have been developing and manufacturing a wide range of measurement instruments since 1920, always with an emphasis on quality, durability and service. As our products remain in use throughout the world we continue to support our customers with spares, repairs and replacements and reengineered products.
In 2001 we joined with Rheintacho GmbH to create one of the largest rotational speed measurement manufacturers in the world. Rheintacho brings over 100 years of additional expertise, especially in the field of non-contact rotational speed sensors and stroboscopes.
As a consequence, our expanded range now covers a wide selection of products for the measurement, indication and control of rotational speed together with a range of stroboscopes for quality control and maintenance. 
Our handheld portable range of tachometers and stroboscopes provides the user with the ability to measure speed and distance as well as carrying out maintenance checks by creating a ‘frozen’ image using a strobe. With equipment for use in a range of environments and applications there is a solution for every need. 
Where a fixed solution is required we offer stroboscopes with a range of light sources, widths and trigger configurations to suit individual demands.
Our rotational speed instruments range from mechanical indicators which are directly connected to moving components, to non-contact sensors which generate a signal from the component and transmit this to electronic devices for control and indication. With this range we have the capability to supply effective solutions from stock, or to engineer existing products to meet specific requirements, either as a ‘one-off’ or for a serial production.
Our technical strength is key to remaining at the forefront of our industry, and we work closely with our clients during the product development process to ensure that when we design and develop a product for them it meets the specification and adds value to the finished product. Quality, accuracy and durability are fundamental to our success.
We believe that we can provide a cost-effective solution for your needs, and if there is not currently a standard product, please talk to us and see what we can do for you.

Task:

The speed and rotation of direction of hydrostatic drives are

to be measured and passed on to the control system. The

environmental conditions place extreme demands on the

reliability and sturdiness of the sensors.

These drives can be used for snowplows, street cleaning

vehicles, agricultural machines and any sort of construction

machines. But they can also be used in drill heads of tunnel

boring machines or in special vehicles.

Depending on the version, the two-channel differential halleffect

sensors of the FA series either transmit two frequency

signals, which are phase shifted by 90° or one frequency

signal, and one rotational direction signal (0 / 24 V).

These sensors can be used at pressures of up to 10 bar and

at temperatures of between –40 °C and +125 °C. They meet

the toughest requirements in terms of thermal shock resistance,

electromagnetic compatibility, vibration resistance,

shock resistance and resistance against known oil types,

diesel, salt fog and high-pressure cleaners.

The sensors are protected by special individual wire seals,

among others from fluids entering them through cables

(IP69K protection class).

Another solution could also be the FE Push-Pull series. These

sensors not only impress with their small size but also with

their high protection class IP6K9K.

 

 

Furthermore the output signal push-pull offers more flexibility

regarding electronic connection. This sensors comes

in standard with cable length 1500 mm and an overmolded

DEUTSCH connector DT04-4P.

The sensors are used in hydrostatic drives exclusively by

Bosch-Rexroth - Mobile Hydraulics.
