SSxx Seismometers

The SSxx sensor series consists of short-period, geophone-based seismometers. Available versions range from fully mechanical electrodynamic transducers to force-feedback sensors incorporating the widely used Lippmann compensation circuit. They are offered with natural frequency options of 0.2, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, and 4.5 Hz, and are respectively designated as SS02, SS05, SS10, SS20, and SS45. Three different housing options are available: compact, standard, and borehole types.

Key Features

  • Single-axis or three-axis version options
  • Dynamic range up to 160 dB
  • Extended bandwidth
  • Borehole version available
  • Robust suspension system
  • Single-bolt mounting interface at the bottom
  • Wall, floor, and ceiling mounting options available upon request
  • Low power consumption

Housing Options
Different housing configurations are available depending on the sensing element of the geophone used. Borehole / post-hole versions are available. The borehole version can be equipped with a guiding mechanism or borehole locking systems for positioning at the desired depth inside the drill casing. For downhole or marine installations, AISI 316 stainless steel or titanium housings are available upon request.
