Bubble Pulser LF
from Falmouth Scientific
The Bubble Pulser LF is a 0.7m diameter low frequency transducer plate for 2D and Ultra High Resolution marine seismic surveys, in particular Ground engineering and Geological mapping. With a 2Hz pulse repetition rate and high shot-to-shot wavelet fidelity, correlation >0.96, deconvolution can be performed with confidence and shots can be stacked for improved signal to noise.
Due to the unique electromechanical plate design the Bubble Pulser top end power supply can be run on a 2kVA 110 or 240VAC power supply. With such minimal power requirements it is easy to configure multiple LF plates into an array as an alternative to a small air gun source, without having to manage high pressure hoses or a compressor.
The top end power supply includes trigger timing and key-out for synchronising the recording system with the source pulse. Alternatively the source can be triggered via TTL for navigation controlled shots.
Features
- 2Hz pulse repetition rate
- Easy, simple, safe power supply
- Configurable as dual plate source
- High shot-to-shot correlation
