Single-Use Shock Indicator for Transport and Handling
Detects rough handling and impacts on your fragile shipments.
The STRATUM ST-IC01 is a single-use shock indicator with a visual, irreversible white-to-red indication. It is available in seven sensitivity levels, from 5G to 75G, so the indicator can be matched to the shipment it travels with. The unit shown here is a 15G indicator.
Visual impact detection for fragile shipments
Fragile goods can be dropped, knocked or handled roughly at any point between the sender and the recipient. The ST-IC01 travels with the shipment and responds to impact with a visual indication that cannot be reset.
The indication changes from white to red and is irreversible, so a recorded impact remains visible for inspection on arrival. Each indicator is single use, tamperproof and serialized.
Seven sensitivity levels
The ST-IC01 is available in seven sensitivity levels: 5G, 10G, 15G, 25G, 37G, 50G and 75G.
Lower G values provide greater sensitivity to impact. Selecting a level should take into account the fragility, weight and size of the shipment, as well as its packaging.
For assistance selecting a sensitivity level for a specific shipment profile, contact the STRATUM team.

Shock monitoring across transport and handling
The ST-IC01 is used where impact during transport, handling or storage would be a problem for the goods concerned.
General applications include sensitive equipment, electronics, instruments, industrial machinery and equipment, and other fragile goods moving through transport, logistics and handling operations.
The sensitivity level suited to a shipment depends on its fragility, weight and size, and on its packaging, rather than on the product category alone.
Designed for professional transport requirements
The ST-IC01 is presented with the following conformity references: REACH, FDA, ISO 9001 and RoHS.

FAQ
What does the ST-IC01 detect?
It detects rough handling and impacts on shipments. When an impact reaches the indicator's sensitivity level, the indication changes from white to red.
What do the different G levels mean?
The ST-IC01 is available in seven sensitivity levels: 5G, 10G, 15G, 25G, 37G, 50G and 75G. Lower G values provide greater sensitivity to impact.
How do I choose a sensitivity level?
Selection should take into account the fragility, weight and size of the shipment, as well as its packaging. STRATUM can help you review a specific shipment profile.
Is the indication reversible?
No. The white-to-red indication is irreversible, and each indicator is single use.
How is the indicator attached?
The ST-IC01 has a self-adhesive backing.
What are the dimensions and weight?
Each indicator measures 42.5 × 47.5 × 5.5 mm and weighs between 7.2 g and 9.1 g depending on the sensitivity level.
