General information
General information
VIY5-125. New generation of Ground Penetrating Radars.
Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) is designed for non-destructive scanning and inspecting of different
structures and underground objects.
GPR can be applied by geophysicists, building companies, can be used in different ecological investigations,
utilities condition assessment (including both metallic and non-metallic, plastic, concrete, asbestos pipes).
Also the equipment can be used for searching and mapping of: underground water sources leaks, oil and
other dangerous liquids underground pollutions; ground water level.
VIY5-125 Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) has Dual Frequency antenna with central frequencies of 125
MHz.
Application of VIY5-125 GPR
• Utilities mapping and detection (pipes, cables);
• Civil engineering surveys (building basements, cellars etc.);
• Search for buried waste products, and graves;
• Mapping and location of near surface voids, karst and other cavities;
• Determination of boundaries of petroleum contamination zones etc.
• Forensic and security investigations.
