Product catalog summary
Overview: The AnySeis™ Cableless Exploration Seismograph is a cutting-edge seismic system designed to eliminate the need for traditional geophone cables. It offers flexibility in geophone spacing, channel numbers, and array configurations, making it lightweight, compact, and expandable.
Key Features:
  • Modular Design: Individual acquisition modules with built-in geophones and 24-bit A/D converters can be connected using common 2-conductor wire, such as speaker wire or lamp cord.
  • Vampire Tap Connection: Modules connect via sharp pins that penetrate insulation, allowing for easy placement and connection along the seismic line without concern for polarity.
  • Rollalong Capability: The system supports efficient rollalong reflection surveys by allowing extra geophone stations to be placed and moved easily.
  • Noise-Free Operation: The system is free from electrical noise typically associated with power lines and industrial machinery.
Advantages:
  • Cost-Effective: Uses inexpensive, disposable wire that can be replaced easily, reducing costs compared to traditional seismic systems.
  • Flexible Survey Design: Allows for on-site adjustment of survey geometry without the need for multiple cables.
  • Portability: The system is lightweight and can be transported easily, even in a suitcase.
  • Expandable: Additional modules can be purchased to increase channel numbers, and the system can be split or combined for different project needs.
Technical Specifications:
  • Sampling: 32-bit A/D conversion with sample intervals of ¼, ½, 1, 2, and 4 ms, truncated to 24 bits.
  • Sensors: Standard 15 Hz sensors, with options for 2, 4½, 10, 28, or 40 Hz sensors, which can be replaced by the user.
  • Compatibility: Operates with standard notebook computers running Windows and outputs SEG-Y file format.
  • Power: Requires a small 12-volt battery, consuming 1/3 watt per channel.

AnySeis™-1

Cableless Exploration Seismograph ■ Any geophone spacing ■ Any number of channels ■ Any geophone array ■ No geophone cables ■ Lightweight and compact ■ Expandable-just add more channels ■ Built-in rollalong ■ Electrical Noise free The AnySeis™ is a revolutionary seismic system. Individual acquisition modules can be connected anywhere on common 2-conductor wire (speaker wire or lamp cord). Each contains a geophone and a 24-bit A/D converter. Power goes down the line and digital data comes back up to the computer. The modules can be attached at any station interval in the field, connecting through a “vampire tape” to adapt to the survey purpose, freeing you from the bondage of spread cables.

AnySeis™-2

Perfect for Rollalong Reflection surveys are conducted by moving the energy source and geophones a short distance along the ground, firing shots, and collecting overlapping sets of data. The process continues linearly until the area of interest is covered. This laborious procedure is made efficient by placing a few extra geophone stations on the ground connected to the system. The software on the computer will roll the active channels along the ground. Alternately, you can just record all the data from all the stations and sort it later with your preferred processing software. Free yourself from...

AnySeis™-3

Why we hate geophone cables A geophone cable has a large number of tiny wires bundled together: 24, 48, 96 or more, wrapped in a polyurethane jacket. Connectors for the geophones, called takeouts, are molded at equal intervals along the cable. These cables are heavy and expensive, more so as they get longer and have more geophone takeouts. Cables used for reflection surveys have to accommodate what is called “roll along”: the process of moving the geophone array along the ground indefinitely. More conductors and special hermaphroditic connectors are required, as well as a rollalong switch. There...
