ShockLog 298 Impact Recorders Technical Data The ShockLog 298 impact recorder combines advanced FEATURES tri-axial piezoelectric accelerometer technology with sophisticated, low power electronics and software to Records impact events oeff r an advanced shock and vibration data logger. The max peaks X, Y, and Z comprehensive software allows the wake-up, warning, gRMS and internal temperature and alarm levels, frequency of data collection, sengtti s of the acceleration range and frequency cutoff filters to Field-proven tri-axial piezoelectric be set by the user. When a programmed impact level is accelerometer technology exceeded, a detailed event curve will be recorded and a visual alarm will occur alerng tti he user to the fact User-definable warning and alarm levels that damage may have occurred.

It has several unique features, which make it especially suitable for applications where the cost of exposure to out-of- specification environmental influences is very high. The instrument is equally suitable for protecting high-value fixed or mobile installations and investigating shock and vibration during transportation. Acceleration in g 1.0, 3.0, 10, 30, 100 & 200 The ShockLog 298 has 12 user-selectable ranges: Velocity in cm/s 1.0, 3.0, 10, 30, 100 & 200 Selectable hardware filters allow users to limit the response of the unit to a select frequency range. The frequency filter range covers from 10Hz to 250Hz. When any of the accelerometer signals exceed the wake-up threshold, the processor turns on and checks the sensor outputs at full sampling speed (4096 samples per second per axis). If the output of any sensor exceeds the alarm thresholds the ShockLog 298 will record a detailed event and flash its status LED accordingly. The ShockLog 298 series offers a traffic light system to inform the recipient of the potential magnitude of any given impact utilizing the following sequence: Green = No Alarms Amber = Warning Red = Alarm In addition, the detailed time history of the first event to set a warning, the first to set an alarm and subsequent events up to the installed memory capacity will be recorded, which depending on setup, could be up to 870 events. The user can adjust the recorded sample rate to make the most efficient use of memory and capture the full extent of any events. The ShockLog 298 also supports peak recording in fixed time slots. In this mode the highest and lowest signal level present on each input is recorded for each time slot. The time slot length may be set between 10 seconds and 1 hour, and as many as 51840 slots, (peak x, y, z and temperature), may be recorded. The slots may also include data from optional sensors such as temperature humidity, pressure, tilt and roll. User-Selectable Time Slot Data: Max Peaks X, Y, Z 3 bytes Min Peaks / gRMS / Ext X,Y,Z 3 bytes Ext1 or Tilt & Roll 2/4 bytes Internal Temperature 2 bytes Options: - Humidity 2 bytes - Pressure 2 bytes - External Temperature or Dew Point 2 bytes www.spotsee.io 2
