Kernco NEW & IMPROVED Pocket Stroboscope - Model PK2X

The PK2X's small size and excellent performance provide superior convenience and value - at a reasonable price.

  • Internal rechargeable Lithium Ion battery uses the latest "smart-charge" technology for the longest possible life and 2-hour run-time on a single charge.
  • Can be powered directly from an AC power source for continuous operation, or continued use during recharging
  • Includes Traceable Calibration Certificate
  • Resolution of ±1 RPM over the entire range with precise flash control and drift-free operation
  • Bright XENON flash intensity (over 1200 Lux) with life of 200 million flashes
  • Accepts input from sensors for external flash triggering
  • Provided with a threaded insert for mounting to articulating arm or other fixture
  • Universal AC-Adapter/Charger (100 - 240 VAC) with plug adapters provided for use in North America, Europe, United Kingdom or Australia

The new PK2X hand-held Pocket Strobe easily measures RPM of rotating or reciprocating parts without contact.  It allows moving parts/machinery
inspection by "freezing" or "slowing down" the action using the stroboscopic effect.  The PK2X's small size, lightweight design and rugged
construction make it perfect for field technicians or maintenance personnel.

The PK2X offers the highest reliability, refined by more than 10-years of continuous design and manufacturing improvements since the original
PK1 hand-held Pocket Strobe was introduced in 1996.

The PK2X provides one hand operation, yet delivers performance comparable to much larger and heavier pistol-grip type models.  It is an ideal
choice for industrial, laboratory, R&D and academic environments.

The new PK2X offers significant improvements over the previous generation of PK2 including:  50% increase in BRIGHTNESS, 200% increase in BATTERY LIFE
(2 hours), now operates from either AC POWER or internal BATTERY.

The PK2X Kit is supplied with the stroboscope, universal AC Adapter/Charger (with plug adapters for North America, Europe, United Kingdom and
Australia), external input/output jack, Traceable Calibration Certificate and instruction manual, all supplied in a hard-shell carrying case.
