Rhino

The Rhino impactor is a massive seismic source, used for any seismic active survey  with the need of compressional or Rayleigh wave. Rhino allows both the hitting mass and the releasing heigth to be changed, varying the generated energy up to 6 kJ. The seismic impulse generated by Rhino cover a wide range of frequencies: it can be used for surveys that needs high frequencies impulse (refraction, reflection), and surveys where the low frequencies are important for obtaining a good penetration depth (surface waves data analysis – masw). Rhino has an inertial trigger system.
