Wireless Shock Detection Sensor

The Wireless Shock Detection Sensor from Fidar Electronics detects horizontal and vertical impacts on a machine or structure and timestamps every event. It links over a LoRa radio with no cabling at all.

  • Detects shock on both horizontal and vertical axes
  • Timestamps every event for later review
  • Tamper alerting for physical security
  • LoRa radio link up to 1 km line of sight
  • AES-128 encrypted payloads
  • Pairs with the FWL1600-01 LoRa card
  • No cabling; pairing takes seconds
  • Low-battery warning per node

A shock sensor detects horizontal and vertical impacts on a machine or structure and records exactly when they happened. It has two jobs: security — tamper attempts, blows to a cabinet door, someone trying to force equipment open — and engineering, logging transit shocks or abnormal machine vibration that marks the start of mechanical failure. The value of a timestamped record is that the event stays accountable afterwards: you know when the impact happened and can tie it to a shift, a shipment or a repair.

Where it is used

  • Tamper and impact alerts on cabinets and equipment panels

  • Physical protection of server racks and telecom equipment

  • Abnormal vibration on rotating machinery

  • Logging transit shocks on sensitive shipments

  • Towers, structures and outdoor-mounted equipment

  • Alerting on attempts to open or move equipment

Installation

Bolt it firmly to the structure being watched — a loose surface or a soft mount destroys its sensitivity.
