Model:MBAS-A
Use:The multistation borehole acquisition system can be used for S-wave borehole tomography or downhole surveying
The multistation borehole acquisition
system can be used for S-wave borehole tomography or downhole surveying. It
consists of up to eight geophone stations each equipped with a tri-axial
sensor. The string is fully water proof and can be used to receive P- and
Swaves in dry or water lled boreholes. All geophone stations are aligned and
mechanically connected by a torsional stiff hose to ensure a correct sensor
orientation. A magnetic compass placed in the lowest station shows the azimuth
to North. Compass values are displayed at a surface box. All geophone stations
can be coupled to the borehole wall by a pneumatic clamping system (air
packer). Air is supplied to the geophone stations through a separate air hose. The
borehole geophone string is terminated by a seismograph connector.
