Jones Tachometers have been used for over 50 years.

The widespread use and reputation for reliability of Jones instruments is due to a simple and rugged construction, the result of Jones' manufacturing skill and specialized experience.

Jones Hand Tachometers are made in many different models with a wide variety of accessories and speed ranges to meet the requirements of practically every known application.

Periodic checking of speeds with one of these precision instruments can often prevent serious breakdowns of motors, generators, engines and other prime movers, by detecting overload conditions or improper speed settings. With the peripheral wheel accessory, Jones Hand Tachometers are useful in measuring surface speeds of conveyors, drums, and materials being machined.

Jones Hand Tachometers are used in automotive and truck service stations, power generating plants, textile and paper mills, labs, machine shops, ships, aircraft, or wherever shafts are turning.

Advantages Of The Flyball Governor Mechanism

A three-weight flyball governor, which develops a force up to 8 pounds, actuates the pointer mechanism for positive pointer action. Unalterable physical laws of centrifugal force and gravity assure same dial reading for a particular speed.

Jones Tachometers are heavy-duty, quality constructed instruments, unaffected by temperature, moisture, vibration, electrical currents or magnetic fields.

The governor-indicating mechanism responds instantly to the slightest change in speed providing consistent, accurate readings.

All rotating parts operate on ball or oil-less bearings for long accurate use without attention of any kind.
