Shock Accessories Help Measure & Monitor Environmental Data

The GPS-Logger consists of a small battery powered portable logging device which collects & stores GPS location data within its on-board non-volatile flash memory. The hardware operates independent of SAVER family instruments & thus eliminates the need for direct connection during the time of measurement.

The GPS-Cell incorporates not only GPS logging capability, but also cellular communications technology. You receive all the benefits of the SAVER GPS-Logger, while also benefiting from the cellular call-back function. This capability provides instant notification of user-predetermined significant events via text messaging to any cell phone.

Accurately & Precisely Measure Low Frequency Dynamics

The Saver 3D15 monitoring instrument accurately & precisely measures low frequency dynamics, such as aerospace flight applications, amusement park rides, rail-car coupling impacts, & vehicle crash testing. The units provide up to 15 days of continual run time on one set of batteries.

Measurement & Analysis Applications:

• Define products’ in-use environmental characteristics
• Capture time history & frequency data to replicate in a laboratory
• Verify existing & create new test standards based on actual measurements
• Improve package performance
• Audit transit environments to identify carrier handling practices
• Assess transport liability

Monitor the Handling of Fragile Goods & Freight Containers Over 100 Pounds

The MAG 2000 impact indicator detects excessive shock to large shipments & monitors products moving through the manufacturing process. Units are cost-effective, re-settable, re-usable, & tamper-proof.

They monitor the handling of fragile goods & freight containers over 100 lbs. Devices record the direction & angle of impacts. The activation point is factory set, with 10 standard activation values: 2G, 3G, 4G, 5G, 6G, 7G, 10G, 11G, 16G, & 20G. Special values are available for custom order.

The MAG 2000 impact date/timer is similar to the MAG 2000, but will also record the date & time of impacts.

Capture & Record Drops, Impacts, Vehicle Motion, & Vibration

Saver 9X30 field data recorders capture & record drops, impacts, vehicle motion, & vibration for 30 days. The unit has 3 internal & 6 external channels that also record temperature, humidity, & atmospheric pressure.

The Saver 9X30 field data recorder can be left unattended. Its internal clock will mark the exact time when each event occurs.

The recorder is ideal for shipment monitoring, road quality monitoring, flight testing, aerospace asset monitoring, ground vibration measurements, plus many more applications.

Shock Monitoring Instruments Detect Rough Product Handling

Shock Monitoring Instruments are used to detect when your packages have been subject to rough product handling.

Saver 3M30 & 3M30+ Shock Monitoring Instruments are equipped with an internal tri-axial accelerometer that is capable of recording threshold triggered full-waveform events. These Monitoring Instruments also provide up to 30 days of continual measurement & only store the most significant events safely & securely in its non-volatile memory.

The units operate on the Saver platform, which allows programming, analysis, & reporting capabilities. You can also use externally captured GPS to identify the location of the occurrence.
