For Archaeology and Engineering applications

- Automatic ranging
- Direct resistivity reading
- Built in data logger
- Field proof

IRIS Instruments is pleased to introduce its new resistivity meter, SYSCAL Kid, a very compact unit specially designed for shallow electrical surveys. The SYSCAL Kid offers the well-known reliability and measurement accuracy of the entire SYSCAL range of resistivity meters.

Easy-to-use, automatic, field proof, SYSCAL Kid is ideal for archaeological, geological mapping and civil engineering applications.

SYSCAL KID MAJOR BENEFITS:

Attractive output parameters:
- 200 V maximum voltage,
- 25 W maximum power,
- 500 mA maximum current
- Automatic fixing of the output voltage in relation with the level of the measured signal.
- Internal memory up to 2000 full reading lines.
- Accuracy on resistivity: 1%.
- Quality control of the measurement through standard deviation and number of stacks.
- Display of measured voltage, intensity of current, apparent resistivity, and self potential.
- Serial link for transfer to PC.
