QuantumMag is one of the most advanced and light-weight versions of high-precision cesium vapour magnetometers on the market. The system allows one to measure the Earth’s total magnetic field with highest accuracy and rate. The device can be used as a rover hand-held magnetometer or autonomous base station. Data can be either stored in the built-in memory or transferred to a remote PC in real-time. The implementation of noise-free sampling algorithms enables the fulfilment of magnetometry surveys in the areas characterized by high level of industrial noises. Automatic coordinate determination of measurement stations as well as time synchronization between a rover magnetometer and a base station are provided by the built-in GLONASS / GPS receiver.
QuantumMag can be used as a deep metal detector and utility locator due to its high measurement rate and graphic data presentation through the built-in console display. This makes it perfectly suitable for the unexploited ordnance (UXO) detection and geotechnical studies.
The unit can be fixed either at the backpack harness (conventional magnetometry surveys) or at the shoulder belt (e.g. for UXO and utility detection) depending on the selected measurement technique.
QuantumMag is included into the official list of measurement systems of Russian Federation (No. 77289-20). Each magnetometer has its own Certificate issued by authorized organization based on the testing in the certified magnetic induction measure.
Distinctive features of the new generation of QuantumMag magnetometers:Magnetometry survey forward modelling and data inversion may be successfully carried out with advanced ZondGM2d and ZondGM3d software packages.
