THETA Downhole
THETA Downhole
Product Overview
The unique slim line design of this THETA Downhole instrument makes it an ideal versatile seismometer for both posthole and borehole installations. Its water proof housing with an outer diameter of only 50 mm is rated for depths of up to 300 m in a wet borehole. An internal three component MEMS accelerometer and a humidity sensor provide additional SOH information about the installed seismometer. A single-arm holelock can be added to the stack (see left instrument in photo). This downhole seismometer is suitable for deployments in cased or uncased bore- and postholes.
