Shock Data Logger w/ Temperature Sensor

Shock Data Logger (Shock Impact Recorder, Shock Logger)

The Shock Data Logger stands out as a professional solution for monitoring and documenting physical stressors such as shocks, impacts, and temperature fluctuations across dynamic environments. Whether you are shipping delicate electronics, industrial machinery, or transformers, this highly sensitive impact recorder ensures every vital event is captured with precision.

Unlike basic sensors, the Shock Data Logger integrates dual 3-axis acceleration sensors—one ±15 g and one ±200 g—enabling accurate recording of sudden impacts at up to 6400 measurements per second. With a massive storage capacity of over 2 million readings, it can reliably record thousands of shock events over extended transport durations. Available models also include an internal temperature sensor, delivering a complete environmental picture alongside mechanical monitoring.

Setting up the logger is remarkably easy with intuitive software that includes a dashboard for configuration, a report generator for quick summaries, and a detailed shock viewer for in-depth analysis. Data can be conveniently downloaded via USB, and the system even allows for automated report creation to simplify claim documentation and internal quality checks.

How Do Impact Recorders Help?

Shock data loggers are essential tools for ensuring the safety and integrity of valuable goods throughout the transportation and handling process. By continuously recording and storing data related to impact and acceleration, these devices provide clear, objective evidence of what happens to a shipment from origin to destination.

A shock data logger acts like a silent observer, detecting and logging every jolt or drop that could compromise the internal components of sensitive items—such as electronics, precision instruments, and high-value industrial assets. For instance, an impact recorder for transformers can reveal whether a power transformer has experienced damaging mechanical shock during transit, even if no visible damage is present. This level of visibility is critical in preventing failure in the field.

In short, shock data loggers do more than just record impacts; they build trust, enforce accountability, and drive smarter logistics decisions.

When to Use a Shock Logger

A shock data logger should be used whenever goods are exposed to mechanical risks during storage, handling, or transportation. This applies especially to sensitive, fragile, or high-value items where even minor impacts can cause hidden damage. Industries that rely on precision, safety, and accountability—such as aerospace, energy, electronics, and healthcare—frequently deploy shock loggers as part of their risk mitigation strategy.

• During global or long-distance shipping, where goods pass through multiple handlers and environments. 
• When transporting heavy industrial equipment, such as turbines, medical devices, or electronics. 
• To meet compliance requirements or client demands for monitored shipping conditions.
• To resolve disputes with carriers.
• Packaging validation and improvement

Ultimately, a shock impact recorder isn’t just a device for data collection—it’s a critical safeguard that helps reduce financial loss, ensure operational continuity, and protect brand reputation.
