SMS's rugged data acquisition system can be used to fulfill TB 700-2 DoD Hazards Classification or MIL-STD-398 Operational Shield testing requirements. The system can be configured for stand-alone operation or for real-time monitoring, control, and analysis via remote laptop. SMS can transport this system to the client's facility, along with dynamic sensors to measure blast overpressure, noise, heat flux, and temperature.
Blast overpressure

Heat flux

The system can be powered by either 90 - 260 VAC or 12 - 35 VDC (supplied by line or generator), and is equipped with an internal battery backup (2 - 20 hours, depending upon configuration). Real-time monitoring is accomplished via a laptop computer (controller) and a TCP/IP network connection; SMS can provide network routers and associated wiring for remote monitoring up to 660 feet from the controller or wireless monitoring for longer distances (requires line of sight between wireless transceivers).
The system can be started manually or off a trigger (switch closure or signal threshold) with pre- and post-trigger actions. The system is equipped with 8 GB of onboard high-speed memory, enabling acquisition of tests lasting miliseconds or hours.
Our data acquisition system can be used to collect data from various sensors that may be mounted to a fixed stand, threaded into a test port, or secured to one of our tripods (to simulate the position of personnel). To reduce signal noise on shielded cables, the system should be connected to a nearby direct earth ground.

Schmidt-Boelter heat flux sensor

The sensitivity of each sensor can be directly input into the data acquisition system, enabling on-screen meters to display each sensor's real-time value. Sensors frequently supplied by SMS for TB 700-2 or MIL-STD-398 tests include:
