What is the difference between WCZ-1, WCZ-1B, WCZ-3 proton magnetometer?


The proton precession units serve an important function for earth science professionals seeking inexpensive solutions for low-sensitivity fieldwork or academic. Major applications include:

• Locating buried ferrous containers (ex. contaminant waste drums) in environmental surveys.

• Locating and tracing buried pipelines in utility-type surveys.

• Locating abandoned wells for decommissioning and sealing.

• Geologic mapping.

• Teaching of geophysical methods.

Other applications, such as mineral exploration surveys, UXO, archaeology and other surveys not listed may be better performed with Overhauser or Optically Pumped Potassium systems.
