SKF laser / contact tachometers for quick and accurate measurement of speed
Speed is one of the important parameters for determining whether a rotating
device is running according to specifications, especially when calibrating
machinery after repairs. Additionally, speed is an important factor for
choosing the correct bearing for an application as well as verifying the
overall optimum rate at which a machine operates.
In
some process industries, such as the food processing industry, the speed of
the machine is vital to the quality of the finished product. Accurate speed
measuring is then crucial for achieving constant quality. To help you
accurately measure your machinery s linear or rotational speed, SKF offers
you the latest addition to its range of precision instruments - The TMRT
series tachometers.
Pinpoint accuracy combined with measurement versatility
The
SKF TMRT series includes two user-friendly and accurate tachometers
utilizing laser or contact for measuring rotational and linear speed: TMRT 1
and TMRT 1Ex. Equipped with laser and contact adaptor, both tachometers
offer excellent speed measurement versatility in many different modes.
-
Laser optical system:
-
allows easy and quick non-contact
measurement at safe distance from rotating machinery
-
provides large angular range of ± 80° to
target, facilitating easy measuring in areas where straight-line access
is difficult
-
allows surface imperfections to be used as
a target
-
The user can select to measure:
-
rpm, rps, m, ft or yds per minute or
second
-
distances or count revolutions
-
time interval
-
Wide speed range and the diverse measurement modes make the TMRT series
suitable for measuring speed in many applications
-
The large inverting LCD display facilitates easy reading even when
pointing the unit down into the machinery
-
Compact design; easy to use, one-hand operated instrument
-
Supplied in carrying case for protection and portability
-
The TMRT 1 can also be equipped with remote laser sensor, which is
optionally available
Intrinsically safe tachometer TMRT 1Ex
The
SKF TMRT 1 is also available in an intrinsically safe (Ex) version,
especially designed for use in potentially explosive hazardous areas. The
TMRT 1Ex has been tested and certified according to the latest ATEX
standards for use in intrinsic safety zones generally found in industries
such as the petrochemical, gas and pharmaceutical among others. |
