Rheintacho UK Ltd

– portable devices for measuring rotational speed and observational maintenance of moving equipment by ‘frozen’ movement.
•    Rolux – bright Xenon bulb using both rechargeable battery and mains power. 
•    RT PocketStrobe LED – ultra bright LED light using rechargeable batteries. Can be connected to equipment utilising a trigger input.

-    RT qb and super qb portabel LED strobes - The high end portable strobes with a larger illuminated area and one including automatic synchronization using an integrated laser.

-    RT PocketStrobe LED Laser - The newest member of the PocketStrobe family with an integrated laser for automatic synchronization.

 – portable devices for measuring rotational speed as well as linear speed and length/distance.
•    HTM mechanical tachometer – non-electrical device using a physical connection to measure rotation and linear speed.

WE also offer non-contact tachometers, one of which can also be used in contact applications and also has 3 different accessories for measuring thread, cable, wire, yarn etc. There is even an accessory for welding wire.

•    Redpoint – uses a special light beam reflected off a target to determine rotational speed.
•    Rotaro – uses a special light as with Redpoint together with the additional capability of physical contact to measure both rotation and linear speed/length. 

– devices for permanent connection to continuous production equipment for observational quality control. Can be supplied with a range of trigger options, control units and width configurations.
•    RT Strobe Xenon – uses a Xenon bulb to create a crisp image.
•    RT Strobe LED – uses LED technology to provide a long lasting light source.

– used to measure, monitor and display rotational speeds with fixed indicators. 
•    Mechanical indicators/eddy current tachometers - a direct connection to a rotating component provides energy to move a pointer on the dial face.
•    Governor Tachometers – uses suspended weights to convert rotational energy to move a pointer on the dial face.
•    Tachogenerators – used to generate electrical power from a rotating component for use as a signal or power source for remote indication or control.
•    Electrical indicators – an electrical pulse generated at the rotating component. Can be used in conjunction with a tachogenerator or non-contact sensor.
•    Electrical Analogue – conventional needle indicates value
•    Electrical Digital – value shown on five digit display
•    Electrical LED – illuminated strip indicator

- an electrical pulse generated at the rotating component. Can be used in conjunction with a tachogenerator or non-contact sensor.
•    Electrical Analogue – conventional needle indicates value
•    Electrical Digital – value shown on five digit display
•    Electrical LED – illuminated strip indicator

- we manufacture a wide variety of  tachogenerators and tacho alternators. These produce AC or DC signals which can be used to drive analogue indicators or control devices.

Whilst these signaling devices are best suited to Foundrometers indicators and controllers, they can be used to drive any other manufacturers instruments.

– Rotational speed sensors for measurement, indication and control of rotational speed. These sensors use various magnetic proximity measuring principles to monitor the speed of machine components. The measurement principle is determined by the application and a wide selection of standard units are available. Additionally, for specific requirements these can be either re-engineered or a new version designed and developed.

– can be used with non-contact sensors or other electrical signals to maximise applications and protection of equipment. Products include the Rotas programmable speed monitor and F/I (U) converters (frequency).

– for 100 years Rheintacho UK, formerly known as Foundrometers Instrumentation, has developed and manufactured an extensive range of measuring devices/gauges and instruments. Today we still support these and are able to supply, amongst others:
•    Thermometers
•    Thermostats
•    Thermocouples
•    Pressure Gauges
•    Counters
•    Encoders 

We can also offer a repair and calibration service for most products.

Rheintacho UK began manufacturing tachometers in 1920. In the year 1984 the company acquired Hardings ltd who had been manufacturing tachometers for over 75 years at that time. In the year 2000 Foundrometers merged with Rheintacho Messtechnik GmbH who had been manufacturing tachometers and rotational speed control devices for more than 100 years. This combined experience and expertise in the field of rotational speed indication and control is unparalleled.

The company can manufacture speed sensors, electrical and mechanical tachometer systems and speed control devices in any quantities from 1 to 100000.
The company is happy to design sensors for large volume specific applications or reverse engineer a single sensor that our customers are finding difficult to source.

With a combined history of over 250 years, Rheintacho UK is now proud to offer other SMEs contracted assembly services ranging from sourcing to testing. Whether in the prototyping, pre-series, series or phaseout, we can offer you additional capacity by assembling either components or complete devices.

At your service whenever you need to measure or monitor rotational speed as a factor for mechanical processes, we look forward to hearing from you.
