• Simple push button operation with 2x and ÷2 buttons for easy adjustment

The Fluke 820-2 LED Stroboscope simplifies the process of identifying the running speed of rotating equipment allowing you to perform stop motion diagnostics without actually stopping, or making contact, with the machine you are working on. Whether you are trying to diagnose parasitic oscillations, slippage, or unwanted distortions, the 820-2 LED Stroboscope is the ideal frontline troubleshooting, process or product research and development tool.

The Fluke 820-2 LED Stroboscope is more than just a tool to measure rotational speed of machinery without physical contact. It is also an excellent diagnostic tool for a wide variety of applications:

• Belt driven machines - HVAC fans, pumps
• Roller bearings, shafts, gear teeth or other machine components
• Clutches and cogwheels
• Foundations - resonance vibrations
• Cable or piping wear or damage
• Mixing and dosage processes

In addition, the Fluke 820-2 can be used as a strobe tachometer to measure speed instead of using a laser tachometer. In order to use the stroboscope, the component under measure must be visible, and have an identifying mark that can be used as a point of reference. A strobe tachometer is a useful tool because you can't always get access to the machine shaft to stick a piece of reflective tape to use a laser tachometer or make contact with the moving shaft to use a contact tachometer - using a stroboscope you can "stop" the shaft down to 30 RPM (FPM).
