Tri-axial MEMS Accelerograph

pALERT S303

Feature and Application

Introduction

Introducing the pALERT S303, an advanced iteration of the pALERT network accelerometer series, fortified with cutting-edge features for unparalleled seismic monitoring. With an IP67 protection rating, this device ensures durability in challenging environments, while a significant boost in computing speed and expanded internal memory for waveform storage elevates its overall performance. Developed in collaboration with Prof. Yih-Min Wu of National Taiwan University, the pALERT S303 embeds Pd technology, enabling it to determine seismic events within 3 seconds of capturing P-waves and issue warnings based on the estimated impact of subsequent S-waves, contributing to proactive earthquake damage reduction. The pALERT S303 stands out with three triggering algorithms ‒ Pd, PGA, and STA/LTA, providing users with customizable options for precise seismic detection. Offering configurable low pass filters, users can effectively eliminate high-frequency noise from non-seismic vibrations. The device supports various intensity scales, allowing flexibility in data representation. With event information storage capabilities, users can access crucial details such as triggering time, maximum intensity, PGA in each component, and 3-component acceleration in vector form.
