CMG-3TB

1 Introduction

The CMG-3TB is a three-axis seismometer consisting of three sensors
stacked vertically in a sealed borehole sonde, designed for use in cased

boreholes with diameters between 5” / 89 mm and 9” / 229 mm.

The seismometer system is self-contained except for its 12 – 30 V

power supply, which is provided through the same cable as the
analogue data. Sensor functions such as levelling and mass locking are

carried out through a surface control box.

The 3TB's sensors are sensitive to ground vibrations in the frequency
range 0.0027 – 50 Hz. It outputs analogue voltage representing ground

velocity on balanced differential lines. Each seismometer is delivered
with a detailed calibration sheet showing its serial number, measured

frequency response in both long and short period sections of the
seismic spectrum, sensor DC calibration levels, and the transfer

function in poles/zeros notation.
