Geomatrix Marine Magnetometer Telemetry System

High-Bandwidth Plug-and-Play Solution for Multi-Sensor Tow Arrays

Product Overview The Geomatrix Marine Magnetometer Telemetry System is a robust, intelligent power and data link designed to operate multiple subsea sensors over standard armored wirelines. Specifically optimized for short to medium-length cables (up to 500m), this system eliminates the power-drop and data-loss issues common when towing complex arrays in shallow to medium water depths.

The system is the primary telemetry choice for the Geometrics G-882 magnetometer and the Geomatrix TVG (Transverse Gradiometer) frame. It transforms a simple tow assembly into a sophisticated multi-sensor platform, capable of supporting magnetometers, altimeters, and gyros simultaneously through a single "Wet End" hub.

Why Choose the Geomatrix Telemetry System?

• Simple Plug-and-Play Integration: Designed for rapid mobilization, the system automatically manages communication between subsea sensors and the surface PC, reducing deck setup time.
• Multi-Sensor Support: The standard unit supports 2 (optionally 4) serial devices and features an auxiliary port for altimeters. It can also be upgraded with Ethernet ports to support advanced MFAM (MagElement) units.
• Integrated Stability Monitoring: The "Wet End" unit features a built-in Digital Pitch and Roll module (0.5° accuracy). This allows operators to monitor the orientation and stability of the towframe in real-time, which is critical for high-quality magnetic data.
• Advanced Safety & Diagnostics: The "Top End" unit features an LCD display that monitors power consumption, leakage, and fault detection. It includes "Safe Start" and "Safe Shutdown" protocols to protect expensive subsea instrumentation.
• Noise-Free Design: The compact Wet End package is designed to be mounted directly onto the tow point of a TVG frame without introducing magnetic interference to the sensitive Cesium Vapor sensors.
