TurboTester® - High speed tachometer and frequency meter
For measuring the rotational speed of dental handpieces and the frequency of ultrasonic scalers.TurboTester® is a high-speed and precision tachometer for testing dental handpieces for rotational speed and ultrasonic scalers for frequency. It is a contact free instrument suitable for high and low-speed handpieces, ultrasonic scalers and electric motors.

TurboTester® does not require special inserts for dental handpieces testing. To perform the measurement, just bring it close to the handpiece or to the ultrasonic tip. Notes: It may be necessary to magnetize the handpiece with the instrument’s magnet located on the rear side enclosure. The instrument is not able to measure the frequency of scalers with titanium tips.
