The instrument is a standalone solution featuring built-in measurement channels, high power current transmitter, electrode selector, computer and graphical user interface.
Resistivity/IP surveying is a versatile geophysical method suitable for a broad range of applications and environments such as groundwater prospecting, mineral exploration, geological mapping and geotechnical investigations. System design can vary depending on the application.
Typical application areas
Flexible, easy to use and boasting a number of innovative features the ABEM Terrameter LS2 is the ideal partner for geotechnical, groundwater, mineral or environmental surveys and research work. It’s primarily suitable for:
- Geological mapping
- Geotechnical pre-investigation
- Groundwater prospecting
- Mineral exploration
- Mapping and monitoring of contamination
- Geothermal prospecting
- Sub-bottom mapping of marine environments
- Monitoring of permafrost
- Archaeology
- Dam and embankment inspection and monitoring
Performance through scaleabilityThe ABEM Terrameter LS 2 is available in many different configurations to perfectly match your requirements. The instrument benefits from an innovative hardware licensing system, making it scalable and easy to upgrade. Every instrument comes preinstalled with all hardware modules and software features, but depending on product package not all need be activated. Product packages range from basic to advanced. Upgrades are made by downloading a license code from the internet or via USB. The measurement channels have an improved filter design for enhanced IP performance. Using the 100% duty cycle, data collection will be almost twice as fast and have twice the signal to noise ratio compared to the conventional IP method (50 % duty cycle) using the same settings.

ABEM Power AdapterRobust and stable power in the field This powerful AC-DC adapter allows operators to run their ABEM instruments from an existing power network or a small ‘suitcase’-style generator. These generators weigh less than a typical high-capacity lead-acid battery, providing an option for prolonged power even in locations where recharging of batteries may be problematic. The ABEM Power Adapter is perfect for demanding field campaigns; it is fully waterproof and capable of providing a clean and stable 12V DC supply in excess of 30A from a 110V/230V AC (50 or 60 Hz) source. It would also suit monitoring and other unattended applications where there would be limited opportunities for changing over batteries. In addition to the main power output, a waterproof auxiliary connector offers both 5V 2A and 12V 1A outputs, for custom accessories, plus an “operation OK” signal, useful for remote applications. |

ABEM ES10-64CExpand electrode capacity for greater flexibility External electrode selectors allow for the creation of longer and (or) denser spreads of electrodes, useful for better resolution, deeper surveys or larger 3D layouts. Each ES10-64C has the capacity to address 64 electrodes and the units can be connected in series to further expand the electrode capacity. The maximum number of electrodes that can be controlled by a single Terrameter LS 2 is in excess of 16,000. |

ABEM Terrameter Log 300Integrated resistivity & IP logging The ABEM Terrameter Log 300 is a plug-and-play borehole logging tool compatible with both the SAS and LS product ranges. It seamlessly adds borehole capability to existing resistivity systems in a robust, durable design for demanding fieldwork. Deployment is made easier with a backpack frame and an optional tripod.
