SVANTEK LAUNCHES VIBRATION & NOISE OUTDOOR
MONITORING STATION Svantek UK has launched its SV 258 PRO, an outdoor noise and vibration monitoring station with a more compact and lightweight design. Specially developed for construction site, tunnelling and blasting applications, this upgraded model weighs just 10kg and is available with 3G modem, solar panel support, advanced alarms and METEO.
Waterproof and portable, Svantek’s SV 258 PRO is battery powered and used for a wide range of outdoor industrial monitoring applications where measurements are required over a period of time, ranging from days to months, and where a hand-held sound level meter taking on the spot recordings would not be suitable. It can be set up to send email or SMS messages when threshold levels are exceeded.
Svantek’s SV 258 PRO incorporates a SVAN 958A Class 1 four-channel sound and vibration analyser for applications that require simultaneous Class 1 sound and vibration assessment. Each of four input channels can be independently configured for sound or vibration detection with different filters and RMS detector time constants.
The SV 258 PRO outdoor monitoring station is protected by an IP 65-rated case containing a lead-acid battery and operating time can be easily extended by connecting an external battery or small solar panel. The intelligent charging unit enables use of a solar panel without expensive controllers and heavy batteries.
MINITEC AT LE MANS The team behind Olympic legend Sir
Chris Hoy's victory at Le Mans were equipped with pit lane toolboxes provided by Minitec UK.
The engineering company from Basingstoke designed and produced custom-made track-side tool chests for the Algarve Pro Racing team and their driver in the 24-hour competition.
The MiniTec solution with its extremely wide range of aluminium profiles, connectors and components helped the race team accomplish these aims by empowering them with complete freedom in the design and build of specialist individual mechanical assemblies that are durable, easily configured and modifiable.

The case is fitted with very robust, waterproof connectors (military standard) and has an IP 65 external power supply. The system uses a low noise, hermetically sealed tri-axial piezoelectric accelerometer enabling the outdoor use without additional enclosures. The accelerometers’ signal ground is insulated from the mounting surface and outer case to prevent ground loops.
It provides broadband vibration results such as RMS and Peak or Peak-Peak. Optionally it can use FFT analysis for determination of dominant frequency used for comparison with the BS and DIN norm curves.
The SVAN 958A can be easily removed from the case and used as hand-held vibration and sound level meter.
The relay server, SvanNET, supports the connection between PC and station allowing the usage of all types of SIM cards with the system, regardless if they have public or private IP.

MiniTec Managing Director Gary Livingstone said: “It was a real honour to see our tool chests being used by the Algarve Pro Racing team with Sir Chris Hoy and his teammates at Le Mans.
“These tool chests are very specific to the motor sport industry and are large in size, not dissimilar to an office desk, nearly 2m long and stand a 1m high. All the engineer’s tools are stored inside, with additional flexible storage for driver and safety equipment, they keep the garage looking and working with model efficiency. The units are tough enough, that even if you wanted to drop engines on top of them to work on they stand up to the task.
“Algarve Pro like the system so much they've used some of our products in their main garage as well.”
