Focused Induction Conductivity Probe HI-453F
The probe HI-453F is designed for measurement of electrical conductivity of rocks in boreholes. High stability and exceptionally wide dynamic range are giving you possibility to carry on precise measurements of conductivity of sand-clay layers and also mineralized water-soaked sands. Thanks to the induction method applied the probes can be used in water filled, dry and plastic cased boreholes. The response is practically instantaneous (<0.5s).
