Digital Tachometer
Digital Tachometer Handheld Digital Tachometers are used to check RPM and other spinning measurements of various types of equipment, like conveyors, windmills, rotary feeders, grinders, dryers, cooling equipment, augers, and elevators.
Digital Tachometer Options
- LCD Display: Digital tachometers have a digital screen (usually an LCD or LED display) that shows the measured RPM or angular velocity. Some models may also display additional information, such as maximum and minimum RPM, total revolutions, or time measurements.
- Non-Contact Measurement: Many digital tachometers use non-contact measurement methods, such as optical or laser-based techniques, to determine the rotational speed. This means they don’t need physical contact with the rotating object, making them safer and less likely to cause damage.
- Contact Measurement: Some digital tachometers also come with contact-type attachments like magnetic sensors or mechanical tips that can be placed on the rotating object for direct measurement. These are useful when non-contact methods are not suitable or when more precise measurements are required.
- Memory and Data Logging: Advanced digital tachometers may have memory functions to store multiple readings or data logging capabilities to record measurements over time for later analysis.
- Auto Ranging: Auto-ranging functionality allows the tachometer to automatically select the appropriate measurement range based on the speed being measured, making it easier to get accurate readings.
- Built-in Calibration: Many digital tachometers can be calibrated to ensure accuracy. Calibration can be done using a known reference speed source or by following the manufacturer’s guidelines.
- Battery Power: Digital tachometers are typically battery-operated for portable use, allowing them to be used in various locations and environments.
Digital Tachometer Handheld Digital Tachometers are used to check RPM and other spinning measurements of various types of equipment, like conveyors, windmills, rotary feeders, grinders, dryers, cooling equipment, augers and elevators.
Modern, digital tachometers can easily measure RPM with unmatched accuracy and precision, even across distances, without contact, using laser or infrared pointers.
When choosing a digital tachometer, consider factors such as the measurement range, accuracy, measurement method (contact or non-contact), ease of use, and any additional features that may be relevant to your specific application.
