LASER TACHOMETER

PLT-5000

Measuring Range: 6.0 – 99,999 RPM

The PLT-5000 Pocket Laser Tachometer accurately measures RPM and Surface Speed using

contact or non-contact measurement techniques. This battery-powered unit is extremely

compact for convenient portable use and is supplied in a rugged and attractive plastic

housing that is ergonomically designed for optimum comfort.

When measuring RPM in the non-contact measuring mode, the PLT-5000 emits a precision

laser beam that is aimed at a small piece of reflective tape, which is affixed to the

rotating target.

The PLT-5000 is extremely easy to operate and quickly converts from non-contact operation

to contact operation by screwing the contact adapter in place. In addition to RPM’s,

a wide variety of engineering units for surface speed and length are user-selected via the

front panel buttons. Units include; feet per minute, meters/min, yards per minute, inches

per minute and more.

A built-in memory stores up to 10 measurements plus minimum, maximum, average and

last.
