Güralp Artius

Güralp, the leading global provider of force-feedback seismic monitoring instrumentation is launching a revolutionary seismic node that features true broadband sensor technology. Designed for rapid deployment and streamlined for large volume arrays, the triaxial, force-feedback sensor utilised in the Artius, makes it the first broadband node of its kind for this type of application.

Artius
The sensor within Artius is of brand-new design, bridging the gap between geophone-based nodes and high-performance broadband seismometers. It has a true broadband response of 30 seconds to 200 Hz and is paired with a Minimus based digitiser, creating a powerful but low power solution. Artius has a built in GNNS receiver, single connector for power and communications, along with Bluetooth for local state of heath monitoring and deployment support. Designed for absolute ease of deployment, the Artius is typically pushed or staked in the ground and available with a range of accessories. One of the accessories is an 8-port docking station, enabling rapid and concurrent data download and mass configuration upload. This is the first variant of this new line of sensors with further developments to follow in due course.
