Cordless Stroboscopes with Certificate of Calibration
These stroboscopes come with a calibration certificate traceable to NIST that states they’ve passed a test for accuracy. They shine a bright flashing light at a moving object to make it appear slow moving. Use them to measure speed and to visually inspect belts and pulleys for signs of wear, such as cracking and fraying, without turning off the machine. They have a 1/4”-20 female threaded bushing for tripod mounting.
LED stroboscopes produce a brighter, more uniform light than xenon stroboscopes. They also consume less battery power and generate less heat.

Tips measure the rotational speed of shafts and other spinning objects. Tips for flat-end surfaces are often used with pulleys and circular saws. They have a concave surface to fit flush over bumps, such as screw heads. Tips for shafts with center hole are cone-shaped, so they’ll fit the inner diameter of different hole sizes.
Speed wheels measure the length and speed of conveyor belts, bolts of fabric, and material on spools. They have a grooved edge to fit over wire, cable, and cords.

High-Accuracy Panel-Mount Tachometers with Certificate of Calibration
Accurate to within ±0.001% of reading, these tachometers come with a calibration certificate traceable to NIST that states they’ve passed a test for accuracy. Install in a convenient location and measure speed remotely using a sensor (sold separately). Use the buttons on the front panel to program the unit.
Proximity sensor detects moving metal objects, such as gear teeth and fan blades and can be used in dirty and wet environments. Maximum measuring distance is 0.2" from a 1/2" minimum size metal target.
Magnetic sensor has a maximum measuring distance of 0.005" from a 0.1" minimum size ferrous metal target.
Optical sensor performs best in clean environments and works at up to a 45° angle from reflective tape.

Tachometers/Hour Meters for Gas Powered Engines
Continuously measure the speed and running time of your engine to monitor its performance and detect mechanical issues early. These meters can be programmed based on engine run time to light up for maintenance reminders, such as oil changes, filter replacements, and inspections. Wrap the signal wire four to five times around your spark plug to secure it in place. They’re battery powered, so they will start showing readings as soon as you turn on the engine. It adjusts to nine different engine types for accurate readings. They’re rated IP67, so they won’t get damaged from dust and water.
