Overview

Shock Indicator 2 – Tamperproof Impact Monitoring Device for Cargo Protection

Shock Indicator 2 is a legally authorized impact monitoring device designed to protect sensitive cargo during transportation and handling. Built on proven shock detection technology, it provides a reliable and cost-effective solution for identifying excessive impacts that may cause hidden product damage.

Unlike many standard shock labels available on the market, the Shock Indicator 2 features a tamperproof structure and field-armable design. This means the indicator is activated only after it is properly applied to the package, helping prevent accidental activation during storage, transportation, and handling.

Each Shock Indicator 2 is a single-use go/no-go shock monitoring device. When an impact exceeds the preset G-force threshold, the indicator window changes from clear to bright red, providing an immediate visual warning that the shipment may have experienced improper handling.

For improved traceability, every indicator is individually serialized with a unique identification number. Combined with its strong acrylic adhesive backing, Shock Indicator 2 ensures secure attachment and reliable monitoring throughout the entire supply chain.

How Does Shock Indicator 2 Work?

Shock Indicator 2 monitors excessive mechanical shocks during transportation. When a package experiences an impact higher than the selected sensitivity level, the internal mechanism activates and permanently changes color.

This visible indication allows receivers, warehouse teams, and quality inspectors to quickly determine whether a shipment requires additional inspection before acceptance.

Unlike electronic monitoring devices, Shock Indicator 2 requires no batteries, calibration, or maintenance, making it an economical solution for large-scale shipment monitoring.

FAQ

What does “G” mean in impact indicator models such as 25G, 37G, and 50G?

“G” refers to the gravity force value used to measure impact sensitivity in impact indicator labels. Different G values represent different impact activation thresholds. Lower G values indicate higher sensitivity to shock and impact, while higher G values require stronger impact force for activation. Selecting the correct G value helps ensure accurate monitoring and protection during transportation and handling

What is difference between Impact indicator label and Shock Indicator 2?

Impact Indicator Label is always live, while Shock Indicator 2 can be armed before you ship a container/carton and is not always live.
