Acceleration

The data loggers should be force-fitted as close as possible to or on the object to be monitored. Fastening to the packaging or the means of transport will lead to deviating results.

There is a wide range of transport data loggers on the market. But how to find the right one? Which data logger provides reliable and meaningful measurement data? With the right preparation before buying a data logger, you can avoid disappointment and costly damage claims.

This question is not so easy to answer, because the required measuring range of an acceleration data logger depends on the respective measuring task. First of all, basic questions should be clarified, such as: What is an acceleration data logger anyway? How can vibrations be recorded? What is meant by an impact or a shock?

During transport, it can sometimes happen that the goods being transported are damaged, whether by shock and impact or by fluctuations in temperature, pressure, or humidity. Small electronic data loggers can help to prevent damage, or to protect goods by determining the cause and taking the appropriate preventive action.
