HOT TACH PRO RECORDING GAUGE

When it comes to data recorders in a small package, this little jewel steals all the glory. Disguised as a simple gauge, the Hot Tach Pro performs data acquisition functions just like the big guys, while still operating as a multi-function display gauge. All monitored functions can be viewed in real time by scrolling through the channels on the gauge’s display screen.

 

The standard Hot Tach Pro features two RPM channels and four thermocouple channels, but it can also be ordered in two other configurations that offer a mixture of thermocouple and analog channels. The exhaust gas thermocouples and the analog sensors must be purchased separate of the gauge.

 

The second RPM channel can be used for monitoring drive shaft or jackshaft RPM by purchasing the Second RPM Kit. All channels feature a warning level that will flash an alarm light if any channel exceeds its programmable limit. Recording times for playback can vary from 5 1/2 minutes to 18 hours depending on which of the 12 sample rate options you choose, and it has a pause feature which prevents it from collecting data when the engine is below a programmable RPM level. Sample rates up to 40 times per second are user programmable. The Hot Tach Pro requires 12 volt DC power and is backlit for nighttime operation.

 

By purchasing the optional Download Kit, which includes the fiber optic adapter and DataLink Lite software, you can transfer all recorded information to a PC or laptop for data analysis. The DataLink Lite displays the information in the same graph and numeric format as used by professional crew chiefs in many forms of racing.

Hot Tach Pro Jr. Dragster Kit

 

This kit was created specifically to introduce our future racers to the tuning methods and data acquisition skills they will need when moving up to the bigger cars. It includes a modified Hot Tach Pro 3 gauge (with the power/RPM harness, remote switch, termination kit), plus one weld-on EGT probe, one cylinder head temperature probe, the second RPM kit for the jackshaft (with split collar kit), and the DataLink Lite Download Kit. This is the same kit that is used by leading Jr. Dragster engine manufacturers and driving schools. It provides invaluable clutch and engine tuning data.
