Product catalog summary
Overview
SenSpot™ Wireless 1D/3D Vibration is a precision sensing device designed for structural integrity monitoring. It is suitable for applications such as bridge health monitoring, general structural integrity monitoring, and seismic effect detection.

Features & Benefits
  • Long battery life of 10 years.
  • Wireless communication using IEEE 802.15.4.
  • Lightweight (120 grams) and easy to install with self-adhesive or flange-mount options.
  • Adjustable sampling interval (50 to 500 samples per second) and sensitivity threshold (8mg to 512mg).
  • Two sampling options: normal (1024 samples) and long waveform (4096 samples).
  • Operates in a wide temperature range (-40°C to +65°C) and survives shocks up to 1000g.
  • Long communication range of 1.0km in free space.

Description
SenSpot™ provides a scalable solution for distributed structural monitoring using Resensys’s proprietary Active RF Technology. It requires no maintenance post-installation and can be applied to various structural elements. The device detects events by monitoring acceleration changes and stores data for later transmission.

Operational Details
  • Event detection triggers sampling and data storage, with options for normal or long waveform sampling.
  • Periodic 'keep alive' measurements ensure data availability even without event detection.
  • Remote configuration via SenScope software allows adjustment of sensitivity and sampling intervals.
  • Integration with Resensys Camera for applications like barge collision monitoring.

Technical Specifications
  • Dimensions: 50mm x 50mm x 34mm.
  • Power source: replaceable lithium-ion battery.
  • Resolution: 4 ug with noise levels specified for X, Y, and Z directions.

wireless vibration sensor SenSpot™-2

small size and lightweight, adhesive-mount SenSpot™ sensors can be applied easily to as many critical spots on a structure as needed, with minimal installation effort. SenSpot™ vibration can be used on different elements of a structure to monitor vibration. nation of Vibration SenSpot™ and Resensys Camera is a perfect solution for applications such as barge collision monitoring system. When a barge hits the bridge fenders, it vibrates the fender and SenSpot™ detects an event. At the same time, the camera takes a photo of the hitting barge. As a result, the entity that is in charge of the bridge...
