Abstract (en)
[origin: US4822251A] A vacuum pump has a housing, a pump shaft having a terminal shaft portion, a bearing member mounted in the housing and supporting the pump shaft and a rotor affixed to the pump shaft. The housing has a housing wall forming a side chamber with the bearing member. The terminal shaft portion projects through the bearing member into the side chamber. There is further provided a device for measuring the rpm of the rotor. The device comprises an inductive sensor held in the housing wall and a ferromagnetic member mounted on the terminal shaft portion for rotation in unison therewith. The ferromagnetic member induces electric pulses in the inductive sensor at a rate proprotionate to the rpm of the rotor. A non-magnetic partition separates the inductive sensor from the side chamber.
