COMBINATION CONTACT/PHOTO TACHOMETER
1. INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your purchase of Extech's Combination Contact/Photo Tachometer,
Model 461895. The combination tachometer is a patented design providing contact and
non-contact RPM measurements. In addition, linear surface speeds can be measured in
ft/min. or m/min.
Features
•Use of an exclusive micro-computer LSI-circuit and crystal time base offers high 0.05%
accuracy and fast measuring time
•RPM measurements span wide ranges: 5 to 99,999 RPM for photo tachometer and 0.5
to 20,000 RPM for contact tachometer
•Suppression of insignificant zeroes in large, 5 digit LCD display provides exact RPM
while saving battery power
•Last value and last max/min readings can be automatically stored and recalled

4. OPERATION
4.1 Photo Tachometer
a) Slide the Function Switch to the "rpm PHOTO" position.
b) Apply a 0.5” (12mm) square piece of reflective tape to the object being measured.
c) Press the Measure button and align the visible light beam with the object being
measured. Check that the Monitor Indicator lights when the reflective tape
passes through the light beam. Release the Measure button once the display
stabilizes (approx. 2 seconds). For best results, hold the meter's light source 6 -
12" from the object being measured (low ambient light recommended).
d) If the RPM measurement is less than 50, apply additional squares of reflective
tape (equidistant). Divide the reading shown on the display by the number of
reflective squares to get the actual RPM.
NOTE: Bright ambient light may interfere with the reflected light beam. Shading the
target area may be necessary in some cases.
CAUTION: Rotating objects can be dangerous. Use extreme care when holding the
meter near any such object.
4.2 Contact Tachometer
a) Slide the Function Switch to the "rpm CONTACT" position.
b) Press the Measure button while lightly pressing the rotating ring against the
center opening of a rotating shaft. Release the Measure button once the display
has stabilized (approx. 2 seconds).
4.3 Surface Speed Measurement
a) Slide the Function Switch to "SURFACE SPEED ft/min" or "m/min".
b) Affix the Surface Speed Wheel on the meter shaft.
c) Press the Measure button and hold the surface speed wheel against the device
being measured. Release the Measure button once the display has stabilized
(approx. 2 seconds).
4.4 Memory Recall
When measuring, the last reading and last max and min values are automatically
stored before the Measure button is released. Recall the values by pressing the
Memory button the appropriate number of times (see below).
a) Press once and hold - the last value is displayed followed by "LA"
b) Press again and hold - the maximum value is displayed followed by "UP"
c) Press again and hold - the minimum value is displayed followed by "dn"
5. BATTERY REPLACEMENT
5.1 The low battery indication appears as a "LO" on the display.
5.2 To replace the battery:
a) Loosen the screw on the battery cover (3-10, Fig. 1) and remove.
b) Replace with 4 x 1.5V AA batteries and replace cover.
