Instantel MICROMATE ISEE BOREHOLE GEOPHONE Instruction Sheet

Instruction Sheet
Triaxial Borehole Geophone
for the Monitoring Unit
The Triaxial Borehole Geophone is designed to be lowered
into a borehole to measure vertical, transverse and longitudinal
ground vibrations.
Each Triaxial Borehole Geophone is coupled with a Micromate
Base Unit and calibrated to the same industry standard as the
Micromate Base Unit, namely:
• International Society of Explosives Engineers (ISEE-2017)
• Deutsches Institut für Normung (DIN 45669-1)
• Swedish Blasting (SS4604866)
• Swedish Pile Driving (SS025211)
