Tip-n-Tell indicator to monitor wheth-
er the shipment has been transported
and stored in upright position accord-
ing to your requirements. With a pitch
of 60° or more, the blue quartz sand

In the Shockwatch system, a precision
glass tube shows shocks or impacts
that are above a specified intensity
through red coloration. Exceeding a
defined acceleration (g value) destroys
the surface tension of the liquid in the
interior of the tube. This causes the
indicator tube to change color.
