The model G-882 cesium-vapor marine magnetometer provides the same high performance as our airborne instruments delivering high resolution results in all types of survey applications. The G-882 is a low cost, compact system designed for professional surveys in shallow or deep water.
The G-882 magnetometers digital output can be recorded with any serial data logger but its full potential is obtained when used with our MagLog Lite software to log, display and print GPS positioned measurement results. The price, performance and reliability of the G-882 make it the best value of any marine magnetometer available today.
The G-882 is designed for operation from small vessels for shallow water surveys as well as for large survey vessels for deep tow applications (4,000 psi rating, telemetry over steel coax available to 10Km). Being small and lightweight (40 lbs net, no extra weights) it is easily deployed and operated by one person. Power may be supplied from a 24 to 30 VDC battery power or the included 110/220 VAC power supply. The standard G-882 tow cable includes a Vectran strength member and can be built to up to 700m (no telemetry required).
The shipboard end of the tow cable is attached to an included junction box or optional on-board cable for quick and simple hookup to a power source. Output data can be recorded on any Windows 98, ME, NT, 2000 or XP computer equipped with RS-232 serial ports. Best of all, the rugged G-882 is designed for and has been used successfully everywhere in the world for all types of applications.
