GRAD601
The Grad601 is a vertical component fluxgate gradiometer with data logger and either one or two cylindrical sensor assemblies for use in geophysics and archaeology. Each sensor assembly contains two fluxgate magnetometers. Two Fluxgate magnetometers with a one metre vertical separation together with electronics and non-volatile memory for calibration data. The system provides an enhanced depth response, exceptional stability and electronic adjustment.
Grad601-1 single sensor version is ideal for both archaeological prospection and the location of pipes, cables, drums and archaeological features.
Grad601-2 two-sensor version is designed for archaeological prospection and allows geophysical surveys to be completed in about half the time. The large non-volatile flash memory and fast downloading of data offer improved survey efficiency.
