Hand held tachs, They work CW and CCW. Looking for more info, instructions and what parts look tobe missing. 1 gauge marked S-96336 and other 96335. thanks for any help.
Industrial machine tachs? Hold them on a shaft to determine engine speed and whatnot. I bought one brand new in a carboard-like tube just to have.
There should be charts and formulas to calculate surface speeds of flywheels,etc. when using the friction wheels.
I've got one of those setups in a box just like that. I'll try to dig it out and see what's in there.
I think Ranunculous got it right. Many years ago I was given a similar unit (not SW) by an old stationary engineer friend of mine who used it to check shaft speeds on motors, pumps ect. Its' a very nice piece of equipment that I'v held onto for all these years with no real use for it. I could get some pix if you are interested.
[iQUOTE=wrenchguy;7240301]I know its a handheld tach, why don't u read my post about what i'm asking help for![/QUOTE] I'm a FNG also, sounds like you need a little help with your attitude.
He,he,he,four posts and attitude.You'll do well here. The forum is like soup,stir in a bunch of different aspects to achieve one thing. Relax...it's just industrial/automotive stuff.... Looks like you're missing some shafts for the gauge-to-differential unit? Mine's similar and has em.I wouldn't want to try and hold to a 5,000 rpm shaft with one of those tho.
Some guys just won't relax and will always have a chip on their shoulder. The guy was just responding to your thread.No harm done.You might want to check out one of the industrial machinery sites,it might be worth something to them.
Just in case anyone ELSE is interested in what a complete, in the box hand held tac looks like... This one was manufactured by Boulin Instrument Corp, model 60779. Registers in both directions of rotation, and I would hazard to say has a jeweled movement based on the smooth operation. There is no date on the unit, but it came with the book pictured below which is dated 1927.
