Applications:

A tachometer or revolution counter is a tool that is used to measure the rotation speed of an object. These devices often measure in RPM (Revolutions Per Minute) units, which measures the frequency of the rotation and would be most familiar alongside a speedometer in a car. This tool is important in the implementation and day to day operations and maintenance of machinery and systems and it is also beneficial for use in research and development laboratories. Tachometers are typically used for measuring:
<li>The speed of rotating equipment such as engines, turbines, fans, wheel, shafts, rollers</li>
<li>Travelling speed of belts and conveyors</li>
<li>Length of long products such as wire, fibre, steel, wood, etc.</li>
<li>The speed of travel and length of sheet products such a films and foils</li>

Is this tachometer supplied with a battery?

Yes, the tachometer is supplied with a 9V battery

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 by using reflective tape or mark as a control target. It measures differences in frequency of the reflected light.

Can this unit be calibrated?

Yes, the unit can be calibrated to RSCAL or ISOCAL standards
