Accu-Tach & Accu-Dial

Product catalog summary
Overview
Electro-Sensors’ Accu-Dial and Accu-Tach are control devices designed for precise process monitoring and control. They feature programmable LCD displays for visual confirmation and feedback, making them suitable for applications like motor drives, temperature control, and hydraulic systems.

Product Features
  • Accu-Dial: Stand-alone programmable potentiometer with LCD display for set point accuracy.
  • Accu-Tach: Available as a 2 or 3 piece system, providing feedback measurement with the same control level as Accu-Dial.
  • Both devices are housed in a durable ABS plastic, NEMA 4 rated enclosure.
  • Easy installation through a standard 3/8” hole with no additional machining required.
  • Features a 10-turn potentiometer for precise control and a robust turning knob for stability in high-vibration environments.
  • EEPROM protection ensures programming and calibration settings are retained through power cycles.

Electrical Connections
  • Accu-Dial: Connects via three wires to the process driver’s pot supply terminals.
  • Accu-Tach: Requires eight wires for connection, including feedback sensor and external power supply inputs.

Functionality and Performance
  • Both devices feature a built-in 10k ohm potentiometer for setting operating point voltage.
  • Accu-Dial displays potentiometer position, while Accu-Tach displays feedback in user units.
  • LCD range from 0.000 to 9,999 for decimal-based units and 59.59 to 00.00 for time-based units.
  • Accu-Tach measures encoder frequencies from 0.500 Hz to 9999 Hz with 0.2% accuracy.
  • Lockout function prevents accidental calibration changes.

Mechanical and Environmental Specifications
  • Mounts through a single 3/8” diameter hole with a footprint of 1.95” x 3.10”.
  • Temperature range from 0° C to 60° C and humidity range of 0-90% non-condensing.

Installation and I/O Requirements
  • Accu-Dial is compatible with devices having pot-supply voltages of 3.9 to 15 Vdc.
  • Accu-Tach supports pot supply voltages up to +28 Vdc and requires an external power supply of +12 Vdc to +24 Vdc.
  • Accu-Tach’s sensor frequency input ranges from 0.50 Hz to 9999 Hz, depending on the sensor type.

Accu-Tach & Accu-Dial-1

Accu-Dial Superior * Systems * Solutions HE950 Sensor Accu-Dial Programmable potentiometer for control and accuracy with LCD display of set point in user units. Accu-Tach Programmable potentiometer for control and accuracy with LCD display of feedback in user units. • Visual confirmation of set points—repeatability across operators. • LCD display assures accuracy—reduces waste, saves money. • Easy installation and calibration—minimal process downtime. • EEPROM protection—programming and calibration retained. • Robust turning knob—precision and strength with a solid smooth feel. • Tough ABS plastic enclosure—NEMA 4 rated. Product Information Description Electro-Sensors’ Accu-Dial and Accu-Tach control devices allow you to economically and accurately monitor and control your processes. Accu-Series control potentiometers provide compact, versatile and precise process control with a programmable LCD set point display for accurate visual confirmation and feedback. Accu-Dial is a stand-alone product and is ideal for applications such as AC/DC variable speed motor drives, temperature control, hydraulic and pneumatic systems or any system currently using a traditional potentiometer. Accu-Tach is available as a 2 or 3 piece system and provides the same level of control as the Accu-Dial, but with feedback measurement. Accu-Series control potentiometers are housed in a tough ABS plastic, NEMA 4 enclosure. Quick and easy to install, both potentiometers mount through the same 3/8” hole as a standard potentiometer - no additional machining is necessary for installation. Accu-Dial has the same three-wire connection as the single- and multi-turn potentiometers it replaces. Accu-Tach has some additional wiring to incorporate its feedback measurement and external power supply input. Accu-Series feature a precise 10-turn potentiometer to give the operator a solid, smooth feel with a robust turning knob to reduce mechanical set point movement in high-vibration environments. The LCD display has a range from 0.000 to 9,999 and can be calibrated in user units, including time in process (TIP). Programming the Accu-Series user variables is straightforward and easily accomplished via the two pushbuttons on the front panel.
