Model SBEPI is a cost effective triaxial downhole package useful for relatively shallow borehole installations. The unit consists of three EpiSensor force balance accelerometer modules mounted orthogonally in one small convenient package. The diameter of the SBEPI is only 2.625², making it suitable for installation in a 3² diameter hole.
With full-scale recording ranges of ± 0.25 to ± 4g, the SBEPI provides on-scale recording of earthquake motions even at near-fault locations.
The significant bandwidth of DC to 200 Hz allows engineers and scientists to study motions at higher frequencies while maintaining the very important DC response that allows simple field calibration and reduces post-processing confusion.
Output circuitry is also significantly en-hanced. Four types of outputs can be selected by the user: ± 2.5V single-ended, ± 10V single-ended, ± 5V differential or ± 20V differential. The ± 2.5V single-ended output is appro-priate for use with traditional Kinemetrics earthquake recording instruments. The ± 10V single-ended output and ± 20V differential output are well suited for use with a wide range of digital recorders currently on the market.
EpiSensor force balance accelerometers are also available in the HypoSensor deep borehole package, Model FBA ES-DH.
