Tachogenerators

A tacho generator is a robust electric generator for detecting the speed of electrical and other rotating machines, such as variable speed drives or engine test benches.

Tacho generators have been widely used as speed sensors, but are increasingly being replaced by cheaper incremental encoders that can operate to a standstill.
