"3 Reasons Monarch's Nova-Pro® LED Stroboscope/Laser Tachometer is Essential for Predictive Maintenance"

Why is this important? Mainly the ability to perform inspections without costly shutdowns. Predictive maintenance programs are increasingly popular for improving production efficiency, reducing downtime, operating costs, and enhancing quality and profitability.

Monarch Instrument's Nova-Pro LED stroboscopic inspection lamps with an onboard laser tachometer offer a compact, ergonomic solution for measuring speed and conducting stop motion inspections on rotating equipment or moving processes. The rechargeable Li-ion batteries provide up to 9 hours of continuous use on a single charge.

Stop Motion Analysis

Twelve high-powered Cree™ LEDs produce incredibly bright and extremely uniform light patterns for crystal clear stop motion inspection of critical rotating machinery like cooling fans, motor shafts, rollers, gear teeth, drive belts/chains, as well as the quality of printing, converting, and other web-based processes. With Nova-Pro, quickly spot bent or broken cooling fins, misaligned belts, worn gear teeth, or sprockets. Even pull replacement part numbers off warn parts while the equipment is running to be ready for the next shutdown!

Onboard Laser Tachometer

Nova-Pro performs quick, highly accurate speed checks of critical process machinery like pumps, motors, mixers, conveyors, drill bits, and other cutting devices. Using Nova-Pro as a tachometer allows for safe, stable, and accurate speed measurement.

Patented Laser Synch Technology

Nova-Pro incorporates patented technology that combines the function of the laser tachometer with the LED strobe by synchronizing the flash to a reflective target detected by the laser sensor. This allows for INSTANT stop motion of a rotating device regardless of whether the speed is constant while simultaneously tracking the device’s exact speed. No more “hunting” up and down with the flash rate to stop motion of a variable speed device.
