Rheintacho UK Ltd

We have been developing and manufacturing a wide range of measurement instruments since 1920, always with an emphasis on quality, durability and service. As our products remain in use throughout the world we continue to support our customers with spares, repairs and replacements and reengineered products.
In 2001 we joined with Rheintacho GmbH to create one of the largest rotational speed measurement manufacturers in the world. Rheintacho brings over 100 years of additional expertise, especially in the field of non-contact rotational speed sensors and stroboscopes.
As a consequence, our expanded range now covers a wide selection of products for the measurement, indication and control of rotational speed together with a range of stroboscopes for quality control and maintenance. 
Our handheld portable range of tachometers and stroboscopes provides the user with the ability to measure speed and distance as well as carrying out maintenance checks by creating a ‘frozen’ image using a strobe. With equipment for use in a range of environments and applications there is a solution for every need. 
Where a fixed solution is required we offer stroboscopes with a range of light sources, widths and trigger configurations to suit individual demands.
Our rotational speed instruments range from mechanical indicators which are directly connected to moving components, to non-contact sensors which generate a signal from the component and transmit this to electronic devices for control and indication. With this range we have the capability to supply effective solutions from stock, or to engineer existing products to meet specific requirements, either as a ‘one-off’ or for a serial production.
Our technical strength is key to remaining at the forefront of our industry, and we work closely with our clients during the product development process to ensure that when we design and develop a product for them it meets the specification and adds value to the finished product. Quality, accuracy and durability are fundamental to our success.
We believe that we can provide a cost-effective solution for your needs, and if there is not currently a standard product, please talk to us and see what we can do for you.

When RHEINTACHO decided to enter the ATEX product market 3 years ago, with its mechanical hand-tachometer htm, no one then anticipated winning an award for technical innovation of the year only 3 years later.
    The global market lacked a stroboscope which was ATEX certified and the only one previously available was discontinued in 2016. RHEINTACHO then decided to act and did two things. First of all, we created a task force based in Leeds to analyze the market for ATEX strobes taking potential applications and volumes into consideration. We then decided to modify some existing stroboscopes to enable them to get ATEX certification. One of them, our RT STROBE pocket LED, is now in the process of being certified. We are also examining further strobes and some sensors and digital hand-tachometers for ATEX certification as well.
However, there being a void in ATEX strobes throughout the world, we looked for a quick solution to this problem. Together with a partner for enclosures, Extronics, we enclosed a RHEINTACHO LED stationary stroboscope. This ATEX system is now available in 2 sizes using the 3000 and 5000 versions of the LED stroboscope.
This innovative technical innovation provides the market with an immediate and very robust solution for Zone 2 applications. The award as runner-up in this category was presented to Paul Hargraves, Managing Director and William Buhler, Sales, Marketing and Business Development Manager of RHEINTACHO UK, which is the ATEX competence center of the RHEINTACHO Group.
