The Sensor Highway III™ (SH-III) system has been developed for continuous outdoor, Acoustic Emission (AE), Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) and Sensor Fusion applications.
The SH-III has been designed for monitoring applications in outdoor environments, without the use of costly heaters, air conditioners or fans. 32 channels of AE are built within its small, weatherproof outdoor enclosure, with sealed inputs, protected from the environment including heat, cold, rain, hail, snow, and lightning. There are 8 AE channels on each signal conditioning module, with a maximum of 4-modules, to provide up to 32 channels of full AE signal processing including waveform processing and the full data set of AE time based, hit based, and frequency-based feature extraction and digital signal processing.
