Project Overview
The client for this development project is a manufacturer of high-tech seismic isolation and vibration control products for buildings. The client commissioned YenProtek to help develop a smart earthquake monitoring and early warning product whose main functions are measuring seismic intensity and issuing alarms. By combining data from the Seismological Center of the Central Weather Administration (CWA) with our custom-developed earthquake sensing and monitoring equipment, we built a smart on-site earthquake early warning system that provides users with a complete regional earthquake early warning solution.
When shaking occurs, the earthquake sensing and monitoring equipment installed in the building evaluates measured data such as Z-axis (vertical) displacement, Pd, PGA, and STA/LTA to determine whether the alarm threshold has been reached, displays the seismic intensity as defined by the Central Weather Administration (CWA) on the HMI in real time, and uploads the sensing data for retention. The RWD web version of the system also allows users to remotely view data such as the time of the earthquake, seismic intensity, and three-axis acceleration. These complete records can serve as a reference for users' subsequent earthquake disaster mitigation planning.
Beyond installation in ordinary buildings to monitor seismic intensity and issue alarms, the smart earthquake monitoring and alarm sensing product is also well suited to extended applications such as bridge vibration monitoring, elevator earthquake monitoring, high-speed mass transit vehicles, tunnel vibration detection, gas pipeline vibration monitoring, and vibration monitoring of specialized process equipment in high-tech fabs.

Smart On-Site Earthquake Alarm System, Providing a More Complete Regional Earthquake Early Warning Solution
- Earthquake sensing and monitoring equipment installed in buildings, elevators, bridges, high-speed mass transit vehicles, specialized process equipment in high-tech fabs, and more evaluates measured data such as Z-axis (vertical) displacement, Pd, PGA, and STA/LTA to determine whether the alarm threshold has been reached, and displays the seismic intensity as defined by the Central Weather Administration (CWA) on the HMI in real time
- Sensing data is automatically uploaded to the Cloud for retention. The RWD web version of the system also allows users to remotely view data such as the time of the earthquake, seismic intensity, and three-axis acceleration. These complete records can serve as a reference for users' subsequent earthquake disaster mitigation planning.
