Product Description
Monarch Instrument ROS-W Remote Optical Speed Sensor
Monarch Instrument ROSW remote optical speed sensor has the red LED light source acts as the aiming device during setup and can accurately measure speeds. The sensor is housed in a threaded 303 stainless steel tube and supplied with a 90 degree.
Monarch Instrument ROS-W - Remote Optical Speed Sensor
The Monarch Instrument ROS-W is a high-performance remote optical speed sensor designed for non-contact RPM measurements in demanding industrial environments. It utilizes a visible red LED light source that functions as a precise aiming device during setup, ensuring accurate alignment with the rotating target. Housed in a rugged, threaded 303 Stainless Steel tube and supplied with a 90-degree mounting bracket, the ROS-W provides a durable solution for capturing data without physical contact. The "W" configuration features tinned wire leads for direct integration into control panels and data acquisition systems.
