25 MHz & 100 MHz Rough Terrain Antennas (RTA)
Friday, September 01, 2006
MALÅ is pleased to announce the release of its new Rough Terrain Antenna (RTA) series. Based on the success of the 50 MHz RTA which has found wide appeal since it was released in 2004, MALÅ's development team has produced two new frequency variants of this antenna concept at 25 MHz and 100 MHz to expand the range.
Description: 25 MHz & 100 MHz Rough Terrain Antennas
Part Number: 21-002458 25 MHz Antenna
22-002458 25 MHz Antenna Kit
21-002459 100 MHz Antenna
22-002459 100 MHz Antenna Kit
The RTA concept changes the face of low-frequency Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) surveying. The unique in-line, all-in-one, antenna design provides improved performance for deeper penetration. The flexible "snake" like design allows the antenna to be maneuvered easily and efficiently through the densest or most uneven of terrain without affecting ground contact, providing optimum results in the most difficult of environments'. The most important benefit being that the operator doesn't have to clear an access path or route prior to the profile or survey.
Even in relatively easy environments the RTA out performs the rest, with proven results showing a significant reduction in survey time and manpower costs. Existing users of the 50 MHz variant report reductions in survey time and manpower requirements to a third of those experienced when using traditional unshielded antennas.
The complete RTA range is fully compatible with the CUII control unit, XV Monitor and Ground Vision data acquisition software. Furthermore, the whole design is rated to IP67 and complies with the European ETSI EN 302 066-1 standard.
