Syscal Junior, 2D Imaging System
Resistivity imaging for environmental applications:
- Compact yet powerful
- ± 400 V - 100 W - 1.2 A
- Automatic ranging
- Automatic switching
SYSCAL Jr Switch is a new all-in-one multinode resistivity imaging system. It features an internal switching board for 48 (Switch-48) or 72 (Switch-72) electrodes and an internal 100 W power source. The output current is automatically adjusted (automatic ranging) to optimise the input voltage values and ensure the best measurement quality. The system is designed to automatically perform pre-defined sets of resistivity measurements with roll-along capability. Two strings of cable with 24 electrode take-out each (or 36) are connected on the back of the resistivity meter. Made of heavy duty seismic cable, these strings are available with standard 5 or 10 m electrode spacings. Customized cables may also assembled for special arrays or non-standard applications.
Compact, easy-to-use and field proof, the SYSCAL Jr Switch measures both resistivity and chargeability (IP). It is ideal for environmental and civil engineering applications such as pollution monitoring and mapping, salinity control, depth-to-rock determination and weathered bedrock mapping. It can also be used for shallow groundwater exploration (depth and thickness of aquifers).
With the SYSCAL Jr Switch, resistivity surveys can be performed very efficiently with one operator only.
The well-known reliability and accuracy of the SYSCAL range of resistivity meters will also mean extra value both for the contractor and the results end-user.
ACCURACY OF MEASUREMENTS
- Automatic SP compensation including linear drift
- Digital stacking for noise reduction
- Standard deviation computation
- Noise may be monitored before injection
