PLT200 – POCKET LASER TACH 200
The Pocket Laser Tach PLT200 is a versatile and portable optical tachometer designed for precise RPM measurements up to 25 feet away from a reflective target using a Class 2 visible laser. Its ergonomic design allows safe and direct line-of-sight viewing of both the target and the 32-function display simultaneously, featuring an easy-to-read dual LCD with a 5-digit upper scrolling and 5-digit alphanumeric lower display. This digital tachometer offers flexibility with optional accessories, such as the Remote Contact Assembly (RCA) for measuring various units like revs, inches, feet, yards, centimeters, and meters. The RCA includes concave and convex tips and a 10 cm linear contact wheel, expanding the tachometer’s capabilities to measure rates in different units per second, per minute, or per hour, as well as miles per hour.
1. Operating Range: Capable of precise measurements up to 25 feet using a Class 2 visible laser, providing flexibility in various working environments.
2. Multifunctional Design: Functions as a 32-function Tachometer/Rate Meter, Totalizer/Counter, and Timer (stopwatch), offering versatility for different measurement needs.
3. Remote Measurement (optional): Accepts Remote Contact Assembly (RCA) and sensors, enabling remote measurement of units beyond revolutions, expanding its utility.
4. TTL Pulse Output: Equipped with TTL-compatible pulse output for triggering external devices like vibration data collectors or stroboscopes.
5. Auto Ranging/Fixed Decimal: User-selectable auto-ranging or fixed decimal functionality for customizable measurement preferences.
6. Dual LCD Display: Features a dual LCD with a 5-digit upper scrolling display and a 5-digit alphanumeric lower display for easy and clear readouts.
7. Ergonomic Design: Ergonomically designed for safe, direct line-of-sight viewing, with a non-slip rubberized surface for convenient single-hand operation.
8. Tripod Mounting Bushing(optional): Includes a tripod mounting bushing for stable and hands-free operation in various settings.
9. Rugged Construction: Rugged rubberized housing ensures durability, making it suitable for demanding work environments.
10. NIST Traceable Calibration: Comes with a NIST Traceable Certificate of Calibration, providing assurance of accuracy in measurements.
