The Cascadia line demonstrates the clear performance, convenience and operational benefits of a single instrument combining both strong and weak motion sensors
In addition to the Cascadia Compact, which combines a Titan Posthole Class A accelerometer with a Trillium Compact Posthole broadband seismometer, we now offer an integration kit that allows you to combine the Titan Posthole with a Trillium 120 Posthole or Trillium 120 Borehole seismometer for a Cascadia that has an even lower noise floor and greater dynamic range.
What are the advantages of a combined instrument?
Easier and less costly installation:
- Only one hole to dig
- One instrument to level and align
- Large tilt range
Better performance:
- Always on-scale: local large magnitude as well as very weak signals recorded with the high combined dynamic range of the two sensors
- All six channels precisely aligned
- Less combined power required than similar systems
Ruggedness and reliability
- Completely immersible and corrosion resistant
- Protected from overcurrent, reversed polarity and electrical transients
Combine the Cascadia with a Centaur digitizer and realize even more advantages:
- Access each sensor’s web user interface to check status and configure accelerometer range modes at any time, even remotely
- Easy levelling with an electronic bubble level on the Centaur’s web browser interface
- Advanced calibration features and smart sensor access/SOH
- Generate total system response information in RESP or dataless SEED formats
- Ability to check vertical orientation of sensor at any time remotely
- Ability to observe verticality of borehole casing during installation
Sensor integration is performed in the field and is non-permanent so you can use your Titan and Trillium sensors separately at a later date.
Integration kit for field assembly includes:
- Titan-Trillium Integration tube, top cap, and adaptor ring
- Required screws and other hardware
- Assembly instructions
