Anyone familiar with motor racing will appreciate how crucial tyres are. The phrase ‘where the rubber meets the road’ is often used as a metaphor, but taken it reflects the fact that, no matter how big or powerful your mode of transport, the only way of turning all that performance into actual motion is through an area of rubber about the size of your palm.

Test and measurement rental company Microlease is training it sights on the rental of test and measurement equipment to the UK, German and Spanish industrial markets. The company has addressed customer demands in this sector by increasing its product range with the introduction of the latest electrical energy meters from manufacturers Fluke and Chauvin Arnaux.

Microlease has been named as an authorised value-added reseller for Fluke in the UK, Italy and Germany, giving new and existing customers direct access to evaluate, purchase, lease and rent instruments from the Fluke Industrial product range.

There is the £100,000 oscilloscope wedged in front of a door or how about the cupboard containing 20 instrument modules which virtually plead “use me” when the door is opened. Just a couple of the anecdotal evidence examples Microlease has collected on how companies misuse or lose track of their assets. And the test equipment sourcing specialist has concrete research to prove the point.

Railway Tool Boxes are a collection of instruments which, says Microlease, take the guesswork out of ensuring teams always have the correct electrical and electronic test gear to complete their tasks. They simplify access to the essential equipment needed to manage and maintain the multitude of electrical, electronic and communications systems used on today’s railway.

A new Datacentre Tool Box from Microlease has been introduced to equip data centre engineering teams and their subcontractors with the varied instrumentation support that they need to complete installation, upgrades and routine maintenance projects in a single package. It provides a customisable rental package of instruments and equipment for electrical power test, thermal imaging, cabling and optical transmission test – all to the latest standards.
