December 2014Maintenance, Test & Measurement, Calibration
Comtest has launched the Fluke 820-2 LED stroboscope, a rugged, ergonomically designed, diagnostic tool which allows clear observation of machinery in motion for diagnosing parasitic oscillations, slippage or unwanted distortions. The stroboscope can effectively be used for frontline troubleshooting and process or product research and development.
Cyclic motion can be slowed or stopped visually in order to note performance, observe dynamic motion, measure speed or photograph/video the action. Features include:
