SEDIS V + VI

SEDIS V is a lightweight seismic recorder offering various options
for seismic surveys, namely Wide Aperture Reflection / Refraction Seismic Profiling (WARRP) investigations, seismicity and microearthquake studies, and conventional reflection seismic surveys.
The instrument can be used offshore (integrated in an Ocean-Bottom Seismigraph (OBS)) or as a stand-alone seismic unit onshore.

It is a perfect tool to obtain accurate seis­mic data to evaluate reliable 2- and 3-dimensional models of velocity distribution and reflectivities. Both marine and land versions record up to six channels (hydrophones and/or geo-phones) on a flash memory of 16 GByte inside the instrument, allowing up to 28 of continuous data acquisition (see specification).

Power is provided by alkaline D-size batteries, solar panels and batteries. Activation of the instrument and selection of recording parameters can be programmed with any IBM compatible PC. Data compression of minimum 2.5 x is also possible and event detection and event storage is included in the software and can be activated if required .

Software for quality control and instrument test functions is included.
It is possible to record continuously or at prefixed time windows.
Precise sampling rates (selectable from 1 to 16 ms) are guaranteed by a stabilised quartz.

It is a perfect tool to obtain accurate seis­mic data to evaluate reliable 2- and 3-dimensional models of velocity distribution and reflectivities. Both marine and land versions record up to four channels (hydrophones and/or geo-phones) on a flash memory of 32 GByte inside the instrument, allowing long time continuous data acquisition (see specification).

Power is provided by alkaline or lithium D-size batteries or solar panels. Activation of the instrument and selection of recording parameters can be programmed with any IBM compatible PC.

Software for quality control and instrument test functions is included.
