Some More News
• SmartCAM AB+ passes seismic testing February 2011
• The Testing was carried out at the highly regarded Earthquake Engineering Laboratory at Bristol University.
• Used a tri‐axial vibratory shaker table testing, in accordance with IEEE Std 344‐2004, IEEEE Recommended Practice for Seismic Qualification of Class 1E Equipment for Nuclear Power Generating Stations. Testing was carried out in three mutually perpendicular test axes.
• In accordance with IEEE Std 344‐2004, Para 8.1.5.2
• SMARTCAM AB+ continued to monitor and scan radiation particles without needing any manual intervention in between testing.
