ShockLog 248 Overview

The ShockLog 248 is the entry model in the ShockLog product line of impact recorders, which includes the ShockLog 298 

impact recorder. Available in 10G, 30G, and 100G impact scale ranges, the ShockLog 248 monitors impact and internal 

temperature, provides peak value (time slot) and summary period journey profile data. 

ShockLog 248 delivers a visual alert that your product has encountered impact events that might affect its performance or safety, 

enabling immediate inspection and remediation at the time shipment is received or before installation in the field. 

The ShockLog 248 will record the detailed impact curve for the first and 14 most significant events. Up to 128 event notifications 

are maintained in the event summary log.

The ShockLog 248 is a highly durable impact recorder that can be configured to monitor critical parameters, 

providing an unmistakable alert that an impact to a shipment or equipment may have compromised its integrity, 

performance, or safe operation.

ShockLog? 248 Applications

The ShockLog 248 is designed for a variety of applications where a single range/frequency filter is required. 

This versatile impact sensing solution also offers optional environmental recording capability, monitoring your products in transit, 

in use, and in storage.

Below is a small sampling of applications in which the ShockLog? 248 has been used:
