The VE-5x is a triaxial short period seismometer designed for seismic monitoring applications.
The VE-5x seismometer is based on a state of the art geophone mass-spring system with electronic feedback which offers a remarkable stability under temperature fluctuations or against aging. In addition due to the innovative design of the unit no mass locking is required.
With the help of the TEST LINE the VE-5x-DH seismometer can be completely tested assuring proper operation.
The downhole housing contains the entire sensor system. The sensor is connected through an Overvoltage Protection stage to the recorder at the surface with a cable.
By using inclinometer tubes and the provided guide wheels, the sensor can be oriented before insertion in the hole.
