The Reed tachometer is a hand-held vibration sensor which will assist in locating the source of unacceptable vibrations. The vibration sensor can be placed anywhere in the vehicle for testing purposes. The Reed tachometer contains several reeds that are tuned to vibrate or resonate at different frequencies ranging from 10 to 80 Hertz (Hz) or 600 to 4, 800 RPM. Though the Reed tachometer is able to measure multiple frequencies, it does not measure amplitude.
