Advanced Sensors & Accessories

Our sensors are rugged, reliable and built to last. Each advanced sensor is designed, manufactured and calibrated by Instantel.

Our advanced sensors, such as high-frequency geophones and hydrophones, require a monitoring unit, like the Minimate Pro, to record higher sample rates. Higher sample rates offer more granularity in the event data and a better representation of the sensor's measured data. Instantel's desktop software, THOR with advanced features, is required for reviewing and analyzing events with advanced sensors.
