The MSR175 data logger from MSR Electronics, which has been optimised for shock and impact measurements up to ±200g, is now also available in a version with a replaceable Li-SOCI2 battery, which allows an even longer operating time compared to the standard Li-Po battery. This enables transport and storage monitoring of sensitive goods over a period of more than two years.

Despite appropriate packaging and careful selection of means and routes of transport, freight is exposed to a variety of risks on its way to the customer. Excessively hard impacts during loading, trans-shipment or unloading, excessively high temperatures or impermissible humidity levels are among the most frequent causes of damage.

The Swiss technology company MSR Electronics, which specialises in the development of modular data loggers and wireless data logger systems, presents a further development of the MSR175 transportation data logger that is already successfully used worldwide, namely the MSR175B54 type variant, which, depending on the setting of the recording parameters, allows a considerably longer monitoring operating life of over two years.

The data logger records and documents shocks in the measuring ranges of ±15 and ±200g with a measuring rate of up to 6,400 per second. In addition, the tamper-proof data logger measures and stores temperature curves from -20 to +65°C; depending on the type variant also humidity, pressure and light. The simple operation of the MSR175 and the user-friendly PC software ensure smooth operation in transport and logistics.
