Product Description
The AN5531-2 is an aircraft tach generator that converts engine rotational speed into an electrical signal for cockpit tachometer and percent RPM indicator displays. Mounted directly on the engine or accessory drive shaft, this generator produces frequency output proportional to shaft RPM, enabling real-time speed monitoring by flight crew. The AN (Army-Navy) standard designation ensures compatibility across general aviation and commercial aircraft platforms.
Installation requires proper engine mount alignment, secure coupling to the drive shaft, and wiring per aircraft maintenance manual specifications. Verify IPC part number compatibility before replacement to ensure correct signal output range and connector type.
Please note: Product descriptions are provided for informational purposes. Always refer to your aircraft's Illustrated Parts Catalog (IPC) to verify part compatibility and specifications.
