X3M GPR System

The X3M system is the most compact GPR system commercially available on the market.

The X3M is an integrated radar control unit, fitted directly on a shielded antenna and powered externally. The built-in electronic design makes it low weight and compact size system, easier to assemble and operate. No cable is required since the unit communicates directly with the laptop.

Based on the flexibility and the modularity of the CUII, the X3M is fully compatible with the Windows based acquisition software Ground Vision.

The X3M system in brief:

  • Operates with the 100, 250, 500 and 800 MHz MALÅ GPR shielded antennas
  • Autostacking function to secure best data quality
  • High power autonomy
  • Low-weight & compact
  • Built-in electronics
  • Fully compatible with all MALÅ GPR features and accessories

X3M CONFIGURATION OPTIONS:

800 MHz Shielded Antenna 500 MHz Shielded Antenna

The shielded 800 MHz antenna delivers very good resolution for shallow investigations. Due to the interchangeable antenna electronics (interchangeable with the 100, 250 and 500 MHz antennas) users find the 800 MHz to be an economically very good alternative to the high resolution 1000 MHz antenna. The shielded 800 MHz antenna is commonly used for mapping road beds and concrete structures.

Dimensions (L x W x H): 0.38 x 0.20 x 0.12 m. Weight: 5 kg

The shielded 500MHz antenna is a very popular general purpose antenna that delivers mid-range penetration and good resolution. The shielded design enables the antenna to be used in noisy city environments. The shielded 500 MHz antenna is the most common antenna used for utility detection.

Dimensions (L x W x H): 0.5 x 0.33 x 0.16 m. Weight: 5 kg

The shielded 250MHz antenna is a general purpose antenna that delivers medium penetration and medium to good resolution. The shielded design enables the antenna to be used in noisy city environments. Together with the shielded 500MHz, it is the most common antenna used for utility, UST and void detection. This is the lowest frequency antenna to fit the Rough Terrain Cart.

Dimensions (L x W x H): 0.78 x 0.44 x 0.16 m. Weight: 8.0 kg

The shielded 100MHz antenna is constructed to give optimal data in noisy environments. It is designed for relatively deep penetration and mid-range resolution.

This antenna is usually pulled by hand or after a small vehicle. It is not compatible with the Rough Terrain Cart.

Dimensions (L x W x H): 1.25 x 0.78 x 0.20 m. Weight: 25.5 kg.

   
Rough Terrain Cart XV11 GPR Monitor
The Rough Terrain Cart carries all shielded antennas in the 2.3 GHz - 250MHz range. Its unique suspension system provides for excellent ground contact without the hassles of having to avoid ditches and tall grass. The monitor tray is designed to accept either the XV11 monitor or the a standard notebook. The wheels and handle comes off with a simple pull of a pin.

The XV11 GPR monitor is designed with a new user interface, easy to learn and simple to operate even under extremely tough conditions. The unit performs profile of full 3D acquistioning and processing on the spot. Equipped with a simple control button ”turn and push” and a full size transreflective TFT colour screen the XV Monitor visualizes your data even in very strong sunlight and operates under extremely rough weather conditions.

Problaby the best screen you'll find on any field instrument and excellent for the extremely strong Australian sun. You'll almost NEVER struggle to see your result on this screen
