SIDAS (Shock Isolating Double Acting Spring)

To protect sensitive electronic equipment from damage incurred by shock forces in near miss-hit situations, Enidine designed and developed the patented Shock Isolator Double Acting Spring (SIDAS). The SIDAS design combines a preloaded mechanical spring to provide static preload forces with a low-pressure hydraulic damper to provide dynamic damping forces.

SIDAS (Shock Isolating Double Acting Spring)

  • During a shock event, the SIDAS experiences a pressurized condition (1500 psi) for a
    duration of less than 1 second. This low pressure situation ensures positive fluid sealing, thus
    providing long life shock attenuation over the range of all four deck frequencies. This low-pressure situation ensures positive fluid sealing, thus providing long-life shock attenuation over the range of all four-deck frequencies.
