Borehole Sources/ Power Supply

SBS42: P- wave Source

The basic seismic crosshole source equipment consists of the electric surge generator IPG and the remote control unit RCU. To the surge generator various seismic sparker sources can be connected. Triggering of the seismic acquisition system is performed by the remote unit.

BIS-SH: S- wave Source

The newly developed electrodynamic source for the generation of SH- and P-waves in boreholes with a depth down to 60 m is based on the well approved electric surge generator IPG known from our sparker products. The handy downhole probe works in dry and water filled boreholes. It can be rotated using a single pipe string containing all supply cables. Mechanical coupling to the borehole wall is achieved by a pneumatic clamping system.
