1546 Strobotac Digital Stroboscope
Data Sheet | Manual

The 1546 Strobotac Digital Stroboscope features a large, five-digit LED readout that automatically displays the flash rate in bold, easy-to-read digits. This display eliminates the need to calibrate and read a dial to obtain accurate speed measurements. If your application is simpler, such as observational inspection then consider the 1542-B.

Flash Rate, duration and accuracy:

Range Flashes Per Minute Flash Duration (approx.)
1 (LOW) 100 to 700 2µs
2 (MED) 1600 to4,200 2µs
3 (HIGH) 3,600 to 25,000 1.2

The 1546 is capable of both internally and externally triggered modes of operation. In the internal mode, the flash is triggered by an internal oscillator pulse that can also drive other Strobotac stroboscopes for additional light sources. In the external mode, the 1546 operates as a digital tachometer when a voltage pulse or contact closure is activated by the rotation of an object. In machinery design and maintenance applications, the 1546 will help determine the speed of rotating components, slippage between shafts, condition of belts and gears, alignment of couplings, and effect of chassis vibration, all at operating speed. It is very useful for quality control inspection and set-up of process machinery such as bottling, canning, packaging, and stamping operations. Other ideal applications are textile machinery adjustments, printing press registration, electrical equipment design and servicing, photography of high speed events, and physics lab demonstrations. The 1546 is designed for maximum portability and particularly suited to speed measurements. This unit is great for machinery design and maintenance applications along with quality control inspection and others.
