Syscal Terra Resistivity and Induced Polarization System

Binghamton University intends to procure multi-channel geophysical equipment that allows for 20 simultaneous measurements and 3D mapping of the subsurface.

• 20 channel resistivity/IP/SP operation with multi-electrode (48-120 electrode) configuration
• Scalable
  • with other Syscal Terral units – can operate as one unit
  • compatible with Syscal Pro units
  • distributed operation – two, or more Terra units, can operate in sync with no physical connection between them, based on GPS clock (e.g. two systems on either side of a river)
  • extendable with external switching units up to 16000 electrodes
• On-time IP acquisition mode
  • Reduce by two the total measurement time of your survey
  • Multiply by two the IP signal strength
• Automatic recording of full waveform IP data
• Automatically records the 20 channel voltage timeseries in background
• Full decay curve (decay curve stored every 10ms)
• Advanced receiver options
  • 20 channels galvanically isolated
  • 24 bit AD converter with 31 bit dynamic range allowing high quality measurements even with low signals (few mV)
  • Selectable filters:
    • low pass -10 Hz + Notch 50 Hz
    • low pass -10 Hz + Notch 60 Hz
    • low pass 256 Hz
    • low pass 512 Hz
• Fully autonomous operation for monitoring
• Operated by simple user generated scripts
• Scripts can be updated remotely (internet connection required)
• Automated data upload to FTP server / email address
• Efficient battery charge management (extra module, embedded in the system)
• Self testing for optimal performance
• Firmware updates for life – easy update the Terra, with no need to ship unit back to the manufacturer
• Removable Li-ion batteries
  • long lasting powerful batteries
  • easily removable for travel / replacement
• 2GB easily accessible internal memory
  • extendable with usb connection
  • files download to a usb stick / WiFi / smartphone / laptop
  • WiFi connectivity
• Color touch screen
  • clearly visualize data collection in real time
  • easy menu navigation, including intuitive survey creation
  • excellent for teaching in real time
• GPS
  • internal GPS included
  • automatic handle of local and global coordinates to visualize profiles on Google Earth
• Survey configuration ease of use
  • automated generation of standard arrays,
  • trivial generation of custom arrays to meet the specifics of each project (with use of any text editor and/or spreadsheet),
  • custom arrays can then be optimized for use
• Dynamic operation mode
  • for land and river/marine continuous surveys [towable cable is needed]
• Portability - the Syscal Terra has been designed with the field operator in mind, it is light weight (~ 14.7 kg) including the Rx/Tx internal batteries
• Borehole operation (with borehole cables)
• Field proof, safe to use under harsh conditions (including large operational temperature range: -20°C to 70°C)
• Receiver or transmitter only use (for use with other resistivity / IP systems)
• High current option (with external 1200W converter)
