Subsite's GeoRanger XR series of ground penetrating radar (GPR) systems is designed to identify both shallow and deep utilities — even those that don't have a wire tracer — in one pass without the need to go back through with multiple frequencies.
The GPR system offers better resolution on deeper scans, helping identify unlocatable or abandoned utilities. With dual-frequency GPR antennas, operators receive high-resolution scans without sacrificing penetration depth. The 750 MHz antennas identify objects up to approximately 10 ft. in depth while the 350 MHz antennas detect objects as deep as 20 ft.
Additionally, the integrated GPS system provides real-time steering guidance when paired with the GPS base station so that time-consuming scan grid layout and marking can be avoided. Using the GPR system's advanced software, operators can generate 3D results and mark detected objects for interactive visualization, reducing the need for manual hand-written updates.
The GPR system offers a wireless connection system, which removes all troublesome cables for the operator. Unlike its predecessor that has up to five connection points, the new GPR system is completely wireless. On its predecessor machine, there were five different connection points, but with the new GPR systems going wireless there are zero. This customer-driven update completely eliminates the headache of jobsite set-up and connector wear and tear, increasing uptime and efficiency, the manufacturer said.
