MSR165 data logger
Highest performance in the smallest space: The robust MSR165 mini data logger is able to carry out 1600 measurements per second in the area of acceleration (shocks, vibrations) in all three axes for over half a year. Shock monitoring is possible either up to ±15 g or ± 200 g, 32 measured values are recorded before the event.
The data logger for shock and vibration
The waterproof MSR165 has extremely low power consumption thanks to the powerful 3-axis acceleration sensor. Thanks to the rechargeable lithium-polymer battery with 1,000 mAh, you can carry out shock monitoring for over six months.
The memory capacity of over two million measured values is sufficient to record over 10,000 shocks. In addition, the memory capacity of the logger can be significantly increased using an exchangeable microSD card (≥4 GB), especially for vibration measurements. Replaceable batteries are available for the MSR165 for a longer recording period of up to 5 years. Alternatively, the recording duration can be extended up to six times with the "MSR Powerpack", which can be ordered separately. All recordings can be quickly transferred to a PC or laptop via a USB interface or microSD card.
The basic configuration of the MSR165 data logger includes a high-resolution 3-axis acceleration sensor. In addition, optional sensors for temperature, humidity, pressure and light and four analog input voltages are available.

Basics of acceleration measurement
What exactly is an acceleration data logger? How can vibrations be recorded? What is an impact or shock? What methods can be used to detect damage to transported goods caused by shocks? What does the "Fast Peak" function mean? And which MSR data logger is particularly suitable for which measurement task?
Helpful basic information on the subject of acceleration measurement can be found here.

Transport monitoring with MSR165 data loggers.
Protect your goods with MSR data loggers! Cargo is subject to a variety of external influences during transportation that can damage it. Protect your goods with our MSR data loggers! The robust MSR165 loggers provide complete information about the transportation circumstances of your freight shipment. Critical events such as shocks, impacts, vibrations etc. are precisely recorded during transportation and storage using a 3-axis acceleration sensor. Any transport damage can thus be detected at an early stage and the events can be fully reconstructed - liability issues can also be objectively assessed. Using an MSR mini data logger can save you a lot of time, trouble and money!
