The SKF TKRT tachometer is a portable measuring instrument that combines optical and contact readings to determine revolutions per minute and peripheral speed on rotating equipment. It is used in predictive maintenance and commissioning tasks to verify the operation of motors, pumps, fans and transmissions. MR Accesorios Industriales sells this tool as part of its line of instruments for mounting and maintenance.

The TKRT series designation is organized with a number that indicates the range or configuration of the instrument. Examples TKRT 10, TKRT 21 and TKRT 31 show different variants within the same family: the number does not represent a physical measurement of the equipment, but the version of the tachometer. When requesting a quote, it is advisable to indicate the complete part number so that MR Accesorios Industriales can identify the exact variant you need.

In Argentine industry, these tachometers are used in food, chemical, cement and water treatment plants, as well as in maintenance workshops and balancing services. They allow controlling the speed of electric motors, gearboxes, centrifugal pumps, fans and compressors, and verifying that a machine operates within the expected parameters. They are also useful for diagnosing failures due to unbalance or resonance.

To select the right model, take into account whether you will measure on accessible shafts with reflective tape (optical mode) or on surfaces where you need direct contact with a measuring wheel. Working distance, speed range and the ability to record values are common criteria. During mounting, verify the cleanliness of the surface and the correct placement of the reflective tape to avoid erroneous readings.

SKF TKRT tachometers can be interchanged with equivalent instruments from other brands that offer optical and contact modes, as long as the measuring ranges and signal type are respected. It is not a component that is replaced by part number, but a tool that is chosen by features. If you have doubts, the MR technical team can guide you according to the application.

To receive a quote, send the complete part number of the tachometer you need via WhatsApp. If you don't have it at hand, describe the application and the speed range to be measured, and we will help you identify the appropriate SKF TKRT variant. MR Accesorios Industriales advises industries throughout the country.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between optical and contact mode?
Optical mode measures without touching the shaft, using reflective tape and a light beam; it is ideal for rotating parts that are difficult to access. Contact mode requires resting a wheel on the moving surface and is usually used for linear speeds or when tape cannot be placed.
How do I know which TKRT model I need?
It depends on the speed range, the measuring distance and whether you need to save data. Models TKRT 10, TKRT 21 and TKRT 31 cover different features. Send your part number or the specific application via WhatsApp and we will advise you with no obligation.
Can it be used to measure linear speed?
Yes, with the contact adapter and the appropriate measuring wheel you can obtain peripheral speed in meters per minute or feet per minute. It is important to select the correct wheel according to the surface and the expected range to obtain a reliable reading.
