Lamerholm Electronics is pleased to announce the launch of the new RD404 tilt and roll accelerometer, designed to add additional monitoring capabilities to the ShockLog range of event data recorders. ShockLog is used throughout industry to help companies
reduce the cost of damage to goods, whether in production, transit or storage. Now, with the introduction of the RD404, companies are not just able to monitor impact and vibration but also tilt and sway, so giving a complete picture of the physical environment that the
product has endured through transit or in storage.

The new RD404 Tilt and Roll Accelerometer connects directly into the RD298 ShockLog via an RS232 cable through which it is powered,drawing less than 1mA during operation and stores all data within the RD2998 memory. With 360° tilt and roll outputs, the existing
software has been modified so that the timeslot graphs will show the tilt (front to back) and roll (left to right) movement of the unit in degrees of movement. To ensure maximum resolution, the data is recorded in quadrants and displayed in a range of ± 90°.

Design engineers at Lamerholm have incorporated the latest MEMS technology and the RD404 boasts the latest silicon accelerometers and DSP techniques, already proven in the automotive industry. To further enhance the capabilities of the ShockLog range, the RD404 can be used with the RD299 HPT (Humidity, Pressure and Temperature) sensor to give a complete environmental profile for the product.

For users of the RD298 ShockLog, setting up the RD404 is an intuitive process. By simply choosing the Tilt and Roll option on the set up screen, the system automatically initiates monitoring.

ShockLog has been used throughout the world to safeguard aerospace products, power generation equipment, medical instrumentation and world renowned artwork. These new features will further enhance its reputation as the world’s leading electronic shock recorder.
