The mini dynamic data logger. Up to 200kS/s per channel.
--- Now with DUAL-CORE SIRIUS-STGM+ Inputs ---
Weighing just 2 kg, you can hold the MINITAUR-S in one hand, and yet inside this small rugged box beats the heart of an INTEL i3 Dual-Core CPU. It's got eight dynamic analog inputs, each one backed up with two 24-bit AD converter inherited from the SIRIUS series for simultaneous sampling at the highest resolution and dynamics. And the inputs are our "universal" type, which can handle strain gages (with short and shunt calibration and internal bridge completion) and also voltages up to +/-10V natively ... or connect our tiny MSI adapters and convert any of them to a different input type, including IEPE accelerometer inputs, 200V inputs, RTD's and thermocouples. The MINITAUR-S can be used as a simple data logger or as a high end multi input measurement device. Signals like voltage, current, temperature, strain, vibration or pressure can be acquired, stored and analyzed. The PC based connectivity with Gbit LAN and USB 3.0 guarantees the perfect connectivity. The optional built-in GPS receivers (10 or 100Hz) offers the absolute time synchronization and is perfect for vehicle test applications.
Flexible Sample Rate: Select any sample rate up to 200 kHz/ch (simultaneous) for incredible ALIAS-FREE dynamic recordings (anti-aliasing filtering is built in, of course).
Small and lightweight: You will never pay overweight anymore on airplane for shipping measurement equipment, Minitaur weights only 2 kg. That's probably less weight than your notebook. Even though it is fully packed with features, it has extremely small size, so it fits in any back pack or carrying case making it extremely portable.
Robust: MINITAUR-S features aluminum housing. Its build-in removable 240GB solid state hard drive (960GB option) and high ambient temperature rating (-20 to 50 °C) ensures it will keep working in tough environments. For additional protection PC and instrument hardware are sealed in separate chambers.
Great connectivity: MINITAUR-S offers great connectivity. 4x USB 3.0 ports allow the connection of external keyboard, mouse, USB keys for data transfer and additional devices. It has a HDMI connector for external display. Gbit LAN port also enables the connection to external LAN enabled devices or sensors, which are becoming more and more popular today.
Wireless synchronization: 10 Hz or 100Hz build in GPS (option) allows the precise absolute timestamping of data. With LAN or WLAN access more instruments can be connected in measurement network and acquire data simultaneously.
MSI adapters: Because the eight dynamic analog inputs on the MINITAUR-S are "universal" type, they can handle strain gages (full bridge) as well as voltages up to +/-10V natively. But for even more versatility, connect our tiny MSI adapters and convert any of them to a different input type, including IEPE accelerometer inputs, 200V inputs, RTD's and thermocouples. MSI adapters are "smart", using TEDS technology to communicate with the MINITAUR-S as soon as they are plugged in. Simply by connecting an MSI-ACC, for example, the channel sets itself up automatically to handle IEPE (aka ICP) sensors, such as microphones and accelerometers. We have MSI adapters for J, K, T thermocouples, as well as RTD sensors, and higher voltages (up to +/-200V) and also for 1/4 and 1/2 bridge completion.
Wide range power supply: The DC power supply ranges from 9-36 V, making it extremely useful for in-vehicle use. 9 V ensures stable operation even with firing up the car engine and 36 V upper limit is useful for trucks and airplanes. For industrial or office applications an external 110/220 V AC power supply is included.
DEWESoft X2 included: Each MINITAUR-S includes our award winning software package to measure analog, counter, CAN, GPS, video data and perform virtually any online or offline calculation task.
