EVEN BASIC METHODS DESERVE MORE THAN BASIC INSTRUMENTS Technical Specification Inspired by the ABEM Terrameter LS 2, the ABEM Terrameter VES brings new levels of performance and functionality to your VES surveys for resistivity and IP. General 30% better resolution* 50% higher maximum current* More memory* Remote control and diagnostics Built-in GNSS (GPS & GLONASS) Real-time sounding curve Better connectivity with Wi-Fi, Ethernet and USB* User-friendly interface with ABEM Active Guidance *Compared to the ABEM Terrameter SAS 1000 VES (vertical electrical sounding) is a basic method which uses four electrodes, two to inject current (C1 & C2) and two specification and both instruments to measure voltage (P1 & P2). When the electrodes are moved can be upgraded to full imaging systems - simply choose the Terrameter LS 2 model that suits your needs. apart, the electrical field extends deeper into the ground, allowing deeper measurements. Raw data are processed with inversion software to provide a model of resistivity versus depth beneath the centre of the electrode spread. Accessories A range of quality accessories are available for the VES instruments including VES cable sets, non-polarising electrodes, flight cases, power adapters and batteries, plus the plug-and-play Terrameter Log borehole resistivity logging tool. VES is an excellent, easy-to-use method for identifying aquifers, saline intrusion, geological layering, large mineral bodies, and for predicting the earthing properties of the ground around electrical installations, especially DC (direct current) sites where a deeper assessment is often required.
