Product Description
The Pico-PQ428 is an advanced NVH (Noise, Vibration and Harshness) diagnostic solution designed to help technicians quickly identify and resolve complex vibration issues. Using high-quality accelerometers and acoustic inputs, it captures precise data and converts it into clear visual insights, including frequency and order analysis.
Ideal for road testing, the PQ428 records real-time data for safe playback and in-depth workshop analysis. Fully compatible with PicoScope Automotive software, it integrates seamlessly into existing workflows. From drivetrain vibrations to engine-related noise, the Pico PQ428 delivers accurate, objective diagnostics to improve repair efficiency and confidence.
Note: Pico Scope BNC+ sold separately and is required to utilise this NVH accessory kit.
