Options enhance electronic shock recorder
Lamerholm Electronics has added enhanced options packages for its renowned RD298 Shocklog shock recorder.
Its compact and lightweight design, combined with a battery life of up to 9 months, makes it ideally suited for routine monitoring.
Engineers at Lamerholm have incorporated the latest in iButton technology making setup, downloading data and stop/start commands a simple operation.
iButton control means that a PC or handheld computer is not necessary to fully use the ShockLog - a bonus for field staff and a cost-saving feature.
With a long battery life and housed in an aluminium case sealed to IP67, up to 500 days of history can be recorded via timeslot graphics.
No important events will be missed as the ShockLog has been designed to record the first incident, followed by the next 9 most significant events.
Real time data stamping identifies when a shock has occurred and when combined with the axis of impact information, provides evidence of the likely damaging event so appropriate action can be taken.
From the data collected by the RD317, companies have information that indicates whether potential damage has occurred through incorrect handling, poor quality packaging or inadequate temperature or humidity control.
Working as both a visible and arbitration deterrent, use of the ShockLog RD317 enhances a company's image and provides evidence that quality and customer service is a top priority.
Providing significant cost savings over similar products, the RD317 now brings triaxial shock monitoring to companies where, until now, price was an issue.
Already, the RD317 ShockLog has been used to protect such products as temperature sensitive foodstuffs, delicate electronics, medical equipment and even unmanned aircraft. Request a free brochure from Lamerholm Electronics ...
