Description
The Digital SELECTRONIC
®
DT9800 series features a tachometer-only and
tachometer with built-in overspeed switch. These tachometers are highly
accurate and dependable due to digital solid-state electronics and a quartz
crystal time base. The surface-mount enclosure makes it easy to install.
Tachometer power and RPM data are supplied by a magnetic pickup or
capacitor discharge (CD) ignition–depending on model chosen. The RPM
data is converted and displayed on a four digit, easy-to-read liquid crystal
display (LCD). The LCD displays up to 9999 RPM.
The DT9803 and DT9804 are tachometer-only models. The DT9803 is
powered by a magnetic pickup. The DT9804 is powered by a CD ignition.
The TACHSWICH™ models, DT9805 and DT9806, combine a digital
tachometer and overspeed switch. The DT9805 is powered by a magnetic
pickup and the DT9806 is powered by a CD ignition.
