TRUMETER

Trumeter is a manufacturer of counting, measuring, and timing instruments with a history dating to the early 20th century. The company's product range includes electromechanical counters, mechanical rotary and stroke counters, hour meters, panel meters, and length-measuring devices. These instruments are used across industrial machinery, process equipment, and OEM applications where discrete event counting or elapsed-time tracking is required. Trumeter devices are commonly specified for their mechanical simplicity, panel-mount form factors, and compatibility with AC or DC control circuits. 3G Electric supplies Trumeter counters, hour meters, and panel meters to maintenance, engineering, and procurement teams worldwide. The line includes both electromechanical and mechanical counter families. Electromechanical counters, such as the P2-4916, operate on 90–120 V AC and are front-panel mounted, making them suitable for control-panel integration where a local count display is needed. Mechanical counters, including the 1-2936, 7-2235, 1-4645, 3602-111TC, 1-4635, 3602-047TG, and 3602-117TC, are base-mounted and driven by rotary or stroke input. These units are available with top-coming (TC) or top-going (TG) operation, right- or left-hand configurations, and either 5- or 6-digit displays. Housing options include white or black plastic bodies with contrasting digits for readability. Reset mechanisms on certain models can be positioned on the left or right side. Trumeter counters are typically used for cycle counting, stroke counting, and production monitoring on presses, packaging lines, textile machinery, and other equipment where a mechanical totalizer is preferred over an electronic counter. The mechanical design does not require external power, which simplifies installation in areas where control power is unavailable or where isolation is desired. Electromechanical models comply with WEEE standards, reflecting end-of-life disposal considerations for electrical equipment. 3G Electric supports the Trumeter line by stocking a range of counter configurations and providing technical selection assistance. Because mechanical counters are often specified by mounting orientation, digit count, and reset position, buyers can reference the manufacturer part number to confirm compatibility with existing equipment. For electromechanical counters, supply voltage and panel cutout dimensions are the primary selection criteria. 3G Electric ships Trumeter products globally and can quote against specific part numbers or application requirements. The product range is suited to maintenance replacements, OEM builds, and spares inventory where a reliable mechanical or electromechanical count function is needed.

Common Applications

  • Industrial machinery — Trumeter mechanical rotary counters (e.g., 3602-111TC) for counting cycles or revolutions on production equipment.
  • Control panels — Trumeter P2-4916 electromechanical counter for front-panel event counting on 90–120 V AC circuits.
  • Presses and stamping equipment — Trumeter stroke counters (e.g., 1-4645) for tracking stroke count and scheduling maintenance.
  • Packaging lines — Trumeter 5-digit mechanical counters (e.g., 7-2235) for production output monitoring where no control power is available.
  • Textile machinery — Trumeter base-mounted counters (e.g., 1-2936) for counting rotary motion on spinning or winding equipment.
  • OEM equipment builds — Trumeter mechanical counters with configurable reset position (e.g., 3602-047TG) for integration into new machine designs.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about TRUMETER from 3G Electric.

What is the difference between Trumeter's top-coming (TC) and top-going (TG) mechanical counters?

Top-coming (TC) and top-going (TG) refer to the direction of the input shaft rotation relative to the counter face. In a TC configuration, the drive shaft rotates toward the top of the counter; in TG, it rotates away from the top. Trumeter offers both configurations across its mounted mechanical counter range, including models such as the 1-4635, which supports TC and TG operation. Selecting the correct rotation direction ensures the counter advances properly when driven by a rotating shaft, cam, or linkage. Mounting orientation and the direction of machine motion determine which version is required.

What supply voltage does the Trumeter P2-4916 electromechanical counter require?

The Trumeter P2-4916 electromechanical counter operates on 90 V AC to 120 V AC. It is a front-panel-mounting counter with dimensions of 1 3/4 in x 1 1/2 in. The unit complies with WEEE standards. Because it is electromechanical, it advances a mechanical digit display in response to electrical pulses rather than requiring a separate electronic display driver. This makes it suitable for control panels where a local, non-resettable or manually resettable count is needed. Verify panel cutout dimensions and pulse characteristics against the specific machine control circuit before installation.

How many digits are available on Trumeter mounted mechanical counters?

Trumeter mounted mechanical counters are available with either 5-digit or 6-digit displays. For example, the 1-2936 rotary stroke counter has a 6-digit display, while the 7-2235, 1-4645, and 1-4635 models have 5-digit displays. Digit count affects the maximum count value before rollover and the physical width of the counter. Choose a digit count that exceeds the expected number of cycles or strokes between scheduled maintenance or production runs. The display contrast is typically black digits on a white background or white digits on a black body, depending on the model.

Can the reset mechanism on Trumeter mechanical counters be positioned on either side?

Some Trumeter mechanical counter models allow the reset mechanism to be positioned on the left or right side. Models such as the 3602-111TC, 3602-047TG, and 3602-117TC are described with reset configurable for left- or right-hand side. This flexibility helps when mounting the counter in a panel or on a machine where access from one side is restricted. The specific configuration is indicated by the manufacturer part number. Confirm the reset position required for your installation before ordering, as the same counter family may be supplied in different reset orientations.

What are typical applications for Trumeter mechanical rotary counters?

Trumeter mechanical rotary counters are used for counting strokes, cycles, or revolutions on industrial machinery. Typical applications include presses, packaging equipment, textile machinery, and other production equipment where a mechanical totalizer is preferred. Because they are base-mounted and driven by a rotating shaft or linkage, they do not require electrical power. This can simplify installation in areas without control power or where electrical isolation is desired. They are often used for production monitoring, maintenance scheduling, and verifying machine output. The 5- or 6-digit display provides a visual count that can be read directly at the machine.

Does 3G Electric supply Trumeter hour meters and panel meters in addition to counters?

Yes. 3G Electric supplies Trumeter counters, hour meters, and panel meters. The product range includes electromechanical counters, mechanical rotary and stroke counters, and related timing and measuring instruments. Buyers can request quotes by manufacturer part number or by application requirements such as mounting style, digit count, supply voltage, and reset configuration. 3G Electric ships globally and supports maintenance, OEM, and spares applications. For specific model availability, provide the Trumeter part number or a description of the required function and panel interface.
