True 3D Induced Polarization Equipment Multi-channel IP Acquisition Unit
Traditional induced polarization systems often force you to choose between portability and power, or between 2D profiling and true 3D imaging. The IP3D Series eliminates these trade-offs. This ultra-high voltage, high-power true three-dimensional time-frequency IP measurement system combines deep penetration, vector reception, and wireless node technology in one integrated package.
Key Advantages Over Conventional Equipment
Power Without Bulk
The Hyper3K transmitter delivers 3000V and 80A (60kW) in a compact <45 kg package, with scalable options for 6000V or up to 300A and 300kW through series/parallel connections.
True 3D Imaging
Enables true 3D measurement through array deployment with vector reception, providing complete 3D resistivity and IP models rather than interpolated profiles.
Superior Signal Quality
Achieves >180 dB dynamic range and <6 nV/√Hz background noise, resolving weak IP signals that would be buried in noise on standard receivers.
Advanced Synchronization
Quad-mode GNSS chip achieves ≤30 ns timing accuracy with seismic-node-style synchronization that maintains 1 µs accuracy for 24 hours.
Wireless Operation
Features wireless charging and data recovery with IP67 waterproofing, Bluetooth, 4G, LORA, and NFC for complete field flexibility.
