TDEM RECEIVER NordicEM24
EM Receiver and Tx Controller
User friendly, reliable and robust, Instrumentation GDD introduced the new leading-edge NordicEM24 8 channels, 24-bit EM Receiver for ground electromagnetic survey.
Developed during the last four years, it has been successfully field tested with different sensors; dB / dt (coil) and B-field (LT and HT squid, Fluxgate) by experienced geophysicists from a major mining company in different geological and meteorological conditions. Also, it has been developed for mineral exploration as well as groundwater studies and geotechnical investigations.
Features
- TDEM survey
- Detachable touch screen with on screen keyboard
- Commercial field surveys are being underway with LT squids
- Full waveform recording with 24-bit ADCs
- Up to 8 input channels with ADC and amplifier
- Download data via USB
- Display scope, stacked data, profiles and decays
- Post-processing data software: to view, validate and correct measured data
- Tested with different sensors : dB / dt (coil), B-field (LT et HT SQUID, Fluxgate)
- Standard ASCII data file formats: AMIRA format compatible with Maxwell® software
- Components and wiring built to work down to -40o C
- Integrated internal GPS antenna or crystal synchronisation between EM Receiver and Transmitter Controller
- Applications: base metals exploration (Cu, Ni, Zn, Pb...), groundwater exploration, geotechnical investigations, saltwater intrusion into aquifers research, contaminated water mapping (mine tailings) and other related fields.
