Geode Ultra-Light Exploration Seismograph |
| |
The new 24-bit Geode seismic recorder is the most versatile and flexible seismograph available today. |
 |
Small and lightweight enough to throw in your suitcase for an evaluation survey. Expands instantly for full-scale 2-D and 3-D surveys at a cost your accountant will love. And when you are not using the Geode for reflection, refraction downhole or tomography surveys, use it for monitoring earthquakes, quarry blasts or vibration from heavy equipment. The Geode will even do sub-bottom profiling or record data continuously. |

For light-duty applications, you can use your laptop to view, record and process your data. In harsh conditions, control your Geodes with Geometrics' StrataVisor TM NZ/C series computers and seismographs. You can connect Geodes together to build systems over 1000 channels on multiple lines. Geodes are shock-proof, dust-proof, submersible and withstand extreme temperatures. Geode modules deploy right in the field close to your geophones to improve signal quality and reduce cable costs. Data are transmitted digitally using industry-standard Ethernet eliminating expensive, hard to configure interface cards. Geodes can even be installed on your office network. The Geode comes with a 3-year warranty backed by Geometrics, now in our 32 nd year of prompt, knowledgeable customer support. Geodes are available for rent to quickly expand your system. |
