The DUALEM-4 has 4-m separation between its transmitter and dual receivers, so its dual depths of conductivity measurement are 2 m and 6.4 m (by the 70-% cumulative-sensitivity guideline). In-phase measurements sound magnetic susceptibility and detect metal.
4-m DUALEM sensors can be carried by one person with sufficient strength; padding between the sensor and carrier can improve comfort. Alternatively, the harness can be split for 2 people to carry the sensor.
The DUALEM-4S sensor is available separately at lower price for integration with the user’s own surveying systems. Towing on a sled optimizes spatial and geophysical resolution, but a low cart is a typical platform for surveying.
