TESTO 470 Optical and Mechanical Tachometer for Engine RPM Measurement

The TESTO 470 is a versatile optical and mechanical tachometer designed for precise measurement of rotational speeds in engines and machinery, critical for bioprocessing equipment maintenance and mechanical system diagnostics. Key features include:

• Wide measuring range: 1 to 99,999 rpm, suitable for high-speed motor analysis and biotechnological instrumentation calibration.
• High accuracy: ±0.02% of reading ensures reliable data for quality control in molecular diagnostics and biomanufacturing.
• Resolution details:
• 0.01 rpm for low-speed precision (1 to 99.99 rpm), essential in sensitive bioprocess machinery.
• 0.1 rpm for medium speeds (100 to 999.9 rpm).
• 1 rpm resolution for high-speed ranges (1000 to 99,999 rpm).
• Display: Single-line 5-character LCD screen provides clear readouts.
• Type K thermocouple input integration supports temperature monitoring in environments requiring strict biocontrol.

This handheld tachometer is widely used in biotechnology labs for equipment verification, motor speed calibration, and routine maintenance, making it an indispensable tool in gene editing instruments and synthetic biology workflows. Its integration into routine biopharmaceutical production pipelines enhances equipment reliability and process reproducibility.
