RheinTech Rotaro Digital handheld tachometer

The RheinTech Rotaro Digital handheld tachometer features two measuring options: an optical, non-contact method that measures up to 99,999 rpm; and a mechanical method, using an adapter and various probes measuring up to 19,999 rpm.

The non-contact method uses a precise beam of light, together with a piece of reflective tape fixed to the rotating element, to accurately measure its rotational speed with the result appearing immediately on the 5-digit LCD. The distance between the RheinTacho tachometer and the test object can be up to 600 mm.

The mechanical method permits the user to connect an adapter that accepts a variety of contact probes, as well as a surface speed wheel, for precise measurement of contact RPM or surface speed and length.

The LCD provides information such as the measured value and selected engineering units, as well an indication of the selected measuring mode - contact or non-contact.

The equipment is useful in the implementation and day-to-day operations of machinery and systems as well as for maintenance, and also suitable for checking production systems as well as research and development laboratories.

Applications for the tachometer include motors, turbines and pumps, centrifugals, conveyors, paper, foil, textiles production systems, spool and transformer coiling machines, tool machines.
