OVERVIEW
Description
The GL-PCS60/120 is an integrated seismic observation instrument combining a wideband seismometer with multiple functions including data acquisition, storage, transmission, and recording triggering. It features a 32-bit 3-channel data acquisition unit, compact wideband seismometer, data storage module, network communication capabilities, and GNSS timing unit. The wideband seismometer detects triaxial vibration velocity signals and converts them into proportional voltage outputs for vibration measurement. Its three
identical sensors are arranged at 54.7-degree angles relative to the vertical axis, forming a 120° circumferential distribution that converts signals into vertical, east-west, and north-south orientations through coordinate transformation. The acquisition unit processes voltage signals from these sensors via three high-resolution, wide-dynamic-range differential channels that deliver real-time data streams with ultra-precise timing. Equipped with a large-capacity 8GB industrial-grade CF card memory and wide temperature tolerance, it enables long-term recording of continuous data, event data, and calibration data. Multiple sampling rates can be transmitted in real-time via network to the seismic network center. Supporting multiple connections and FTP data downloads, the GLPCS60/120 compact wideband seismometer achieves miniaturization, lightweight design, and low power consumption through advanced integration.
