The E60DN Multi-Electrode Resistivity Survey System is a new type of electrical methodology device. It uses software-controlled data acquisition and electrode control routines and the data is presented graphically in real-time for ease of real-time monitoring of data quality.
Functions
This device can operate all kinds of equipment for high-density resistivity tests, and has self custom data acquisition monitoring capabilities. Because the device has a built-in high performance computer, when matched with suitable data processing software, is fully capable of doing on-site data processing.
Main Properties:
1. Using a distributed design and 9-pin calbes, the system is capable of connecting 65535 electrodes to meet the needs of profiling and 3D high density surveying.
2. Besides standard high density equipment, it also has an open electrode editing system, allowing the user to arbitrarily define the input voltages and other parameters of the powered electrodes AB and measurement electrodes MN as needed.
3. It has a binning filter to effectively suppress ground electrical interference, raising the signal to noise ratio.
4. Ground resistance testing and electrode self-test capability gives maximum assurance on the quality of the test materials. It has real-time display of the resistivity diagram, current positions of the powered and measurement electrodes, supply current, and potential curve.
5. Data acquisition can be stopped at any point to undergo electrode shielding, outlier filtering, or applying new settings.
Electrode Switch Main Properties
1. Self-addressing; Code runs after connecting with E60DN.
2. Built-in microprocessor handles commands from the main computer to control workflow.
3. Up to 20 m between nodes satisfies most surveying needs.
4. Small, light, and sturdy design, well-suited for field work.
5. Power supply cables and measurement cables have different diameters and shielding to meet the needs of using high current while minimizing inter-cable interference.
