The ShockWatch MAG 2000 impact indicator is a cost-effective, resettable and reusable device designed to monitor the handling of fragile goods and freight containers greater than 500 lbs. The device is also widely used on rail cars and trucking fleets to monitor for excessive impacts during humping or latching.
The MAG 2000 utilizes two tuned and highly sensitive magnets. When an out-of-tolerance impact is experienced, the magnets are forced out of alignment clearly indicating the angle and severity of impact. A uniquely designed key is supplied to unlock the cover on the unit. This key allows the product to be reset after activation and resists tampering.
Benefits:
? Acts as a visual deterrent to improper handling
? Reduces mishandling through awareness
? Provides indisputable evidence of mishandling
? Alerts recipient to inspect contents before acceptance
? Promotes chain of accountability for all product handling
? Confirms effectiveness of packaging
? Helps identify trouble spots in supply chain, from production to transportation and storage
? Helps increase quality of product from dock to dock

Selection Guide:
There are two things you need to know to begin selecting a MAG 2000 sensitivity: shipment weight and fragility (Low, Average, or High). The selection guide should always be used as a starting point only. The MAG 2000 that will be best suited to your application will also take into account product packaging.
Low Fragility Zone
Applicable in situations where both visible and hidden damage is possible and a single extreme impact will cause damage to product.
Average Fragility Zone
Applicable in situations where there is a moderate degree of stability and survivability built into the product and where a standard mode of transportation is used.
High Fragility Zone
Applicable in situations where hidden damage is the key concern. Typically, these products will be constructed of low-tolerance components, such as data storage drives, optical lenses, or any other products that require precise alignment.
The MAG 2000 is available in three different response orientations: HH, VV, and VH. HH is used to sense horizontal impacts and is mounted to a horizontal surface. VV is used to sense vertical impacts and is mounted to a vertical surface. VH is used to sense horizontal impacts but is mounted to a vertical surface.
