WIDE BAND MAGNETOTELLURIC STATION FOR FIELD SURVEY LEMI-423
 

Wide band magnetotelluric station LEMI-423 is intended for the study of natural electromagnetic fluctuations in field conditions in wide temperature range. The station registers and digitizes automatically the data from 3 search-coil magnetometers and 2 electric channels. The electric channels include lightning protection unit, one of two its constructions differing by the connectors type for electric lines connection (see photo) may be selected. The real time acquisition, recording and visualization of current and previously recorded data are executed in the external PC to which digital data are transferred through USB port. The station operation is GPS synchronized.
