Introducing the latest innovation from Syscom Instruments - the ROCK Acceleration device Sponsored

The SYSCOM ROCK Acceleration device is an automated vibration monitoring solution that incorporates ultra-low power integrated components, embedded LTE-M connectivity, SIM card and GNSS capability, eliminating the need for any gateway for swift notifications and data transfer.

Purpose-built for structural health monitoring and modal analysis evaluations, the ROCK Acceleration, together with Syscom Cloud Software (SCS), ensures fast alerts and smooth data transfer without a gateway. This cutting-edge solution utilizes low-power technology, built-in LTE-M connectivity, SIM card, and GNSS function to provide efficient vibration monitoring.

ROCK Acceleration's rugged but subtle finish provides stable long-term monitoring without drawing attention. Applications include bridges, buildings and civil structures, electrical substations, wind towers, and geotechnical investigations.

With the increasing number of structural assets at risk of failure, there is a growing demand for trustworthy, scalable solutions to guide resources toward appropriate maintenance and safety measures. Syscom addresses this need with its ROCK Acceleration device, offering two primary applications:

• ROCK Acceleration (SHM): Dedicated to standard SHM applications, featuring an affordable sensor with autonomous cable-free operation, for ease of installation and without the requirements of any gateways with a self-noise of 25 μg RMS/√Hz.
• ROCK Acceleration HD (OMA): Dedicated to highly sensitive monitoring like Operation Modal Analysis (OMA) and geotechnical monitoring (ambient vibrations, MASW), with an ultra low self-noise of 0.2 μg RMS/√Hz. 

Both models come in the same housing, with a rechargeable battery providing months-long power supply under operations. They also incorporate the latest mobile 4G communication technologies and microseconds GNSS time synchronization for reliable, synchronized evaluation of structural dynamic modes.
