Tachogeneraattorit
Tachogeneraattorit, also known as tachogenerators, are devices used to measure and record the speed and other parameters of a vehicle's engine. They are commonly used in commercial vehicles, such as trucks and buses, to ensure compliance with regulations regarding driving hours and to monitor the vehicle's performance. Tachogenerators are typically installed in the vehicle's engine compartment and are connected to the engine's crankshaft. They use a magnetic pickup to detect the rotation of the crankshaft and convert this information into digital data. This data is then used to calculate the vehicle's speed, distance traveled, and other parameters. Tachogenerators are required by law in many countries and are used to enforce regulations regarding driving hours and rest periods for commercial vehicle drivers. They are also used to monitor the vehicle's performance and to detect any potential issues with the engine or other components. Tachogenerators are an essential tool for ensuring the safety and efficiency of commercial vehicle operations.
