The Pocket Laser Tachometer 200 (PLT200)ย is a digital, battery-powered laser tachometer, which operates up to 25 feet* [8 meters] from a reflective target using a Classย 2 laser light source. The ergonomic design allows safe, direct line-of-sight viewing of both the target and the display at the same time while providing a non-slip rubber surface for single-hand operation. NIST Traceable Certificate is included.
All Pocket Tach Series instruments provide a unique ergonomic design that allows you to safely observe both the display and the rotating target at the same time.

Multifunction
The PLT200 is a 32-function Tachometer/Rate Meter, Totalizer/Counter, and Timer (stopwatch), programmable in both Imperial and Metric units. It includes two phone plug connectors, including an input for our optional Remote Contact Assembly (RCA) or remote sensors and a TTL compatible pulse output to trigger devices like vibration data collectors or stroboscopes. The kit is supplied complete with a Remote Contact Assembly including concave and convex tips and a 10 cm linear speed wheel, all in a latching carrying case. Sensors, 12- inch Contact Wheel, and input/output cable are optional.
*Performance subject to the intensity of ambient light irradiation.
