SHD30 and SHD30-45 Models
Description
The SHD30 and SHD30-45 are microprocessor-
based tachometers with hourmeter and an over-
speed trip point. The trip point can be connected
as either a form “c ” relay output or as a normally
open SCR output for alarm or shutdown on over-
speed.
The SHD30 features a panel-mounting design, plas-
tic enclosure that is 5-1/16 (129 mm) long and
4-1/4 in. (108 mm) high.
The SHD30-45 has the same enclosure, but it also
has a backplate with studs to mount like a SHD-
45, OPLFC.
The SHD30 models power and RPM data are
supplied by either a magnetic pickup or a capacitor
discharge (CD) ignition. The hourmeter is
adjustable to a preset time and resettable to zero.
Should power be lost, on-board batteries maintain
the run hours display and allow for resetting the
overspeed relay output.
Basic Operation
When a tach signal is present the SHD30 models
display rpm. When a tach signal is not present, the
display is blank unless the Read Hours membrane
key, on the faceplate is pressed and held.
The five-digit, liquid crystal display is updated every
second. The run hours, overspeed set point and
current pulses per engine revolution can be dis-
played by manipulating the membrane switches.
Run hours can be displayed even after power is
lost. The run hours display can be configured to
alternate with the RPM display.
Applications
Easy-to-Calibrate
The SHD30 models calibration is done by enter-
ing the number of pulses per engine revolution
using the Pulses per Revolution and Overspeed
Setpoint membrane keys, on the faceplate. The
number of pulses is determined by the number of
cylinders, cycles and ignition features. It is also
determined by the number of ring gear teeth of
the engine’s flywheel on a magnetic pickup sys-
tem.
Presetting and resetting running hours is done from
the back and front of the SHD30 models.
