EM-38 MK2 with Archer Field PC and Hemisphere GPS
$95.00 – $1,495.00
The EM38-MK2 provides measurement of both the quad-phase (conductivity) and in-phase (magnetic susceptibility) components within two distinct depth ranges, all simultaneously, without any requirement for soil-to-instrument contact. With a maximum effective depth of exploration of 1.5 m, applications in agriculture, archaeology and general soil sciences are common.

- Includes 2 receiver coils, separated by 1 m & 0.5 m from the transmitter, providing data from effective depth ranges of 1.5 m and 0.75 m respectively when positioned in the vertical dipole orientation, and 0.75 m and 0.375 m respectively when in the horizontal dipole orientation
- New coil technology, supported by temperature compensation circuitry, markedly improves temperature-related drift characteristics as compared with the preceding generation of EM38 instruments
- Supporting both walking and trailer-mounted survey methods, external power sources can be connected to the instrument for extended field operations; an optional, lightweight, rechargeable battery pack provides for 25 hours of continuous operation
