The Type 858 Optical detector is used to generate an output pulse when a projectile passes immediately overhead. It can be used in conjunction with other units such as the 817 to provide a Projectile Velocity Measuring System. Such a system can, to within an accuracy of 0.1%, record velocities from as low as 10 metres per second to in excess of 5000 metres per second.

Triple Channel Remote Timer Unit type 817 is a microprocessor based instrument, which provides direct measurement of projectile velocity and rate of fire without the need to refer to ‘look up’ tables or to make any other calculations.

The MS Instruments PLC Pressure Measurement Unit is a compact, sealed
unit which - in conjunction with the Timer Unit type 817 - is an integrated
unit used to gather data for complete ballistics analysis. 

These precision electronic targets provide developers, testers and manufacturers with a cost effective method of checking the performance of weapons and ammunition by measuring the co-ordinates of shots fired under test. 

An acoustic target is an automatic system that predicts the position of a projectile in space as it flies over the sensors. It detects the shock-wave that is emitted by the projectile and therefore can only be used with supersonic projectiles.

MS Instruments Plc manufactures a wide range of Triggering Systems. Please continue to find out more on products we can supply.

The MS Instruments Plc Shot Digitisation System is used to enter shot co-ordinate data into a processor when an automatic marking system has not been available or is not possible.

When a shotgun is fired, it is often necessary to analyse the pattern of pellet dispersion for forensic or scoring purposes. The Shotgun Scatter Analyser operates by presenting a paper target of nominal area 1m x 1m. The operator fires at the target and then presses a key to advance the paper through the built in image analyser.

The Indoor Climate Monitor type 598 is usually supplied with a full indoor range system. The unit provides temperature, pressure and humidity measurement and includes 7 A/D channels for optional inputs e.g. Thermal probes for barrel temperature measurements.
