Transient EM - Electronics
Wallaroo and Wallaby towed Transient EM loop support structures are designed for use with electronics supplied by some Transient EM electronics providers offering continuous acquisition.
Options for consideration are:
1. MySeers Ventures Sdn. Bhd. offer a continuous acquisition mode in their Fast-Snap System - testing and enhancement of compatibility is a possibility proposed in mid-2025. FastSnap has fast, medium and slow Analogue to Digital Converters (ADCs) that can collectively investigate a large range of depths when coupled with configurable loop turns and transmitter currents.
2. Loupe Geophysics propose that their walked Loupe system can be used with our Wallaby and Wallaroo platforms and are willing to assist in this respect. For shallow walked TEM use the Loupe system as-is but for deeper and/or faster towed survey, use the Wallaby or Wallaroo platforms. Loupe can also work simultaneously with large fixed loop and portable moving loop transmitters.
3. AgTEM towed TEM electronics, only two existing systems are available - designed specifically for Wallaby and Wallaroo systems and offering excellent real time mapping and sounding display revealing line-to-line correlation and anomalous features in real time. As of 2025, some AgTEM firmware and electronics options can be moved into Monex TerraTEM24 systems either as new, or, to limited extent, retrofitted.
4. Monex TerraTEM (original) with continuous acquisition option, with or without an external TEMTx50 transmitter. One system is available.
5. Monex TerraTEM24 with continuous aquisition option - some enquirers may have this instrument already.
6. Purchaser supplies their own.
7. TEM Company sell tTEM and sTEM-Profiler as full towed or walked TEM systems of very fixed configuration so they are not adaptable to use with Wallaby and Wallaroo platforms. Guidline Geo/ABEM/Mala offer rebranded products GroundTEM i5, i10, i20 and Ralli.
TEM Configurator is useful for evaluating and comparing different configurations and electronics.
Groundwater Imaging Pty Ltd own AgTEM electronics, a TerraTEM (original), and TEMTx50 transmitter.
