Description
Paired with our Power, Alarm, and Communications box and fitted with an internal battery, the Gecko SMA-HR is the most affordable fully compliant solution to meet the 2015 DPWH guidelines on earthquake recording instrumentation for buildings. Continuous data is stored onto a local SD card and optionally telemetered to a remote computer via wireless modem or over Ethernet or WiFi.
The SMA-HR is also useful for rapid deployment of aftershock monitoring networks – it has been field tested at temporary deployment stations to show that earthquakes as low as magnitude 1.0 are clearly visible at a range of 10km from the instrument, and earthquakes as small as magnitude 0.2 within 3km are also discernible above the typical background noise at a temporary surface station.
