ShockWatch 2 is a bi-directional vertical impact indicator developed to monitor impacts from 2Gs to 75Gs for durations between 0.5 and 0 ms. It operates effectively within a temperature range of -13°F to 176°F and can be conveniently activated on-site.
Impact Monitoring Tool to Deter Mishandling
Designed for single use, the ShockWatch 2 alerts users to any drops or mishandling incidents during transit. The single-use impact indicator has seven sensitivity levels, each denoted by a different colour.
The selection of the appropriate sensitivity would depend on the product’s impact tolerance and the packaging used. The indicator serves not only as a warning mechanism but also as a deterrent to mishandling.
The shock indicator reduces damage costs and triggers quick inspections for potential harm. Upon mishandling, its display shifts from white to red, indicating rough handling. Every ShockWatch 2 has a distinct serial number for easy identification.
