RLV-5500 Rotational Vibrometer

The RLV-5500 Rotational Laser Vibrometer benefits from digital decoding techniques, an improved S/N ratio and an expanded rpm range of up to 20,000 rpm.

The sensor head design is new, more compact, and small enough to get closer to the measurement object. An integrated air purge system protects the optics from production oil spray and dust. Even onboard measurement of an operating drivetrain in a moving vehicle is now possible.
