This chapter covers optional accessories for Sirius® that you can order separately.
7.1 MSI-Adapters
7.1.1 MSI Overview
Modular Smart Interfaces (MSI) bring an expanded level of flexibility to your measurement system.
MSI-Adapters expand the functionality of many amplifier modules and enable you to use a bridge amplifier
(e.g. SIRIUS-STG) for measuring also IEPE®, Thermocouple, Pt100 to Pt2000, charge or voltage up to 200 V.
HINT
When isolation is required, you must use the MSI-adapters on isolated Siriusi modules.
Please refer to chapters 5.4 SIRIUS® Dual Core specifications (on page 54) and 5.5 SIRIUS® HD and HS
specifications (on page 55) compatibility overview between Siriusx modules and the MSI-adapters.
All MSI-adapters are the size of a D-SUB 9 housing, which contains the electronics as well as the sensor connector. The
miniature electronics of each MSI sensor also contain an EEPROM, in which the identification and calibration data of
the MSI are stored. Both are read automatically by the DEWESoft® software and entered accordingly into the setup.
Expand functionality of bridge and voltage inputs
Automatically detected, easy channel setup in the correct engineering units
Versions for voltage, thermocouple, RTD, IEPE® and charge sensors
HINT
When a TEDs enabled sensor is connected to an MSI adapter, only the TEDs information of
the MSI adapter can be used.
7.1.2 General Specifications
7.1.2.1 Calibration
The MSI-adapters are calibrated at 25 °C and meet their specifications when leaving the factory.
The time interval for recalibration depends on environmental conditions. A two year calibration interval is
recommended.
