An Innovative Seismic Switch GST-43-M is hitting the world, such as fires, road/bridge damages, building collapse, etc. that really threaten people’s lives. Therefore, establishing a complete earthquake warning system becomes important and urgent to prevent any further significant damages.

People could take precautions against the earthquake disaster. To meet this kind of demand, ICP DAS and San Lien Technology cooperate to develop an innovative seismic switch--- GST-43-M.

GST-43-M is an advanced seismic switch equipped with a PC/AT embedded controller inside and running Mini OS7 operation system. GST-43-M has the brilliant feature of extreme high boot-up speed in just 0.1 second and provides the real-time monitoring and/or controlling functions for any emergency reactions needed. In addition, the built-in tri-axial MEMS accelerometers acquired vibration signal by 100Hz sampling rate and calculate the STA / LTA algorithm to achieve earthquake detection.

GST-43-M has two digital outputs(D/Os) to conduct users’ control requirements, and supports both Modbus RTU/TCP for connecting with host PC PLC, and/or HMI. GST-43-M could be applied in many different fields. For instance, install a GST-43-M around the buildings and factories. As the earthquake happens, the two built-in D/Os turn off the pointed facilities or gas switches before the magnitude attains to the destructive level. Furthermore, it could transmit the detected seismic-waves readings back to control center through Ethernet or Modbus TCP/RTU. The control center could take any emergency measures to avoid the second damage caused by the earthquake.

GST-43-M would be showcased in the SecuTech Expo 2010 at TWTC Nangang Exhibition Hall, Homeland Security, # K109, K111 from April 21~ 23. Welcome and get more details of GST-43-M in the exhibition.
