Vibrating Reed Tachometer

Vibrating Reed Tachometers are instruments used for measuring the rotational speed or revolutions per minute (RPM) of a rotating object. They belong to the supply class of Liquid And Gas Flow, Liquid Level, And Mechanical Motion Measuring Instruments in the supply group of Instruments And Laboratory Equipment.

Vibrating Reed Tachometers typically consist of a small reed or spring-like element that vibrates when exposed to a rotating object. The frequency of the vibrations is directly proportional to the rotational speed of the object. By measuring the frequency of the vibrations, the tachometer can determine the RPM of the rotating object.

These tachometers are commonly used in various industries such as automotive, manufacturing, and maintenance, where monitoring and controlling the speed of rotating machinery is crucial. They are often handheld devices that are easy to use and provide accurate RPM readings.

Vibrating Reed Tachometers are valuable tools for maintenance technicians, engineers, and researchers who need to measure and monitor the speed of rotating equipment to ensure optimal performance and prevent any potential issues or failures.
