This professional laser tachometer (digital rotary measuring instrument) from RS PRO offers the latest measuring technologies in a robust and durable housing and allows for fast and accurate non-contact, optical measurements of rotational speed, RPM, linear speed and distance. The ergonomically designed body makes it a comfortable device to use at any location. The Laser Light Tachometer is a must-have device for any operator working in close distance to high-risk machines or where the access is restricted.

• Long detecting distance up to 2m
• Clear and easy to read LCD display with a memory function
• Direct RPM reading function
• Supplied with a selection of accessories and durable carrying case
• Calibration Certificate (supplied with a calibrated versions only)
• 3 Years warranty

This tool is just as important in the implementation and day to day operations of machinery and systems as it is for maintenance and would also benefit research and development laboratories. Tachometers are typically used for measuring e.g:

• The speed of rotating equipment such as motors, turbines, fans, wheel, shafts, rollers
• Travelling speed of belts and conveyors
• Length of long products such as wire, fibre, steel, wood, etc.
• The speed of travel and length of sheet products such a films and foils

Is this tachometer supplied with a battery?

No, the tachometer is not supplied with batteries. It requires 4 x AA batteries e.g. 7442199

How does an optical sensor work?

The tachometer's optical sensor uses a beam of laser light to measure the speed of rotation of the wheel or shaft. It measures differences in frequency of the reflected light.

What do I get in a set? 

The Tachometer is supplied with:
• Carrying Case
