DUALEM 21s

The DUALEM 21s is a conductivity meter that simultaneously measures the conductivity and magnetic susceptibility of a terrain at 4 measurement points located at different depths.

Operation with the DUALEM 21s

The DUALEM 21s is equipped with two dual geometry receiver coils (horizontal HCP/Vertical: PRP) allowing it to jointly perform 4 measurement points

Applications

Applications

The Dualem is particularly suitable for shallow studies requiring good measurement perfomance. The mapping of soil conductivity variations for many applications, particularly for agriculture (argilosity, salinity and soil moisture content) or geotechnical and environmental applications (water search, location of anomalies, extension of polluted ares).

It can also be used tolocate buried objects (networks, tanks, concrete, metal object, ect…)

Data acquisition

Georeferencing of all profiles (GPS built into the datalogger or external GPS).
Display navigation instantly on the datalogger during acquisition
Export KML profiles
Measurement of inclination and bearing of the sensor

Treatment

Thanks to the 4 measurement points : possibility to make 2D slices (x, z); 2D (x, y) sections; and 3D blocks.
