Proceq GP8800 Ground Penetrating Radar is an ultra-compact, powerful GPR unit that quickly scans in tight spaces, on curved surfaces, overhead, and close to the walls of concrete bridges, structures, and pavements. This handheld model operates with Stepped Frequency Continuous Wave (SFCW) technology, sweeping through a range of frequencies during scanning instead of the one-channel operation of pulsed-radar units. The 0.4 to 6.0GHz SFCW operation achieves penetration depths of 25.6in (65cm) with high-resolution characterization with a single antenna.

The GP8800 detects reinforcing bars and steel mesh, secondary layers of reinforcement, tendon ducts, cables, conduits, and other embedments. Voids, inclusions, and discontinuities are also identified, and slab or wall thicknesses are measured from a single side. Ground penetrating radar is the ideal technology for structural investigation, as-built verification, rebar detection, and thickness measurement.

The exclusive wireless tracking wheel adjusts between trailing and sidecar configurations for flexibility in cramped environments and to permit cross-polarized scanning. The cross-polarization method combines data from two scans in perpendicular directions from the same area, greatly increasing instrument sensitivity and resolution. For scanning in narrow areas with as little as 2.5in (63mm) of clearance, the battery pack can be removed and tethered to the scan unit with a USB-C cable.

Like other GPR Live models, the GP8800 connects wirelessly over encrypted Wi-Fi to the user’s Apple^® iPad^® with iPadOS 13 or later. Live Pro software uses the powerful post-processing capacity, high visual resolution, and reporting and collaboration features built into the iPad as an ideal platform to view, collect, and distribute results. Visualizations, graphics, and report data can be shared instantly to the cloud from any location.

Data migration processing displays results with realistic 2D and 3D imagery throughout the detection depth. Using Apple’s ARKit^™, augmented reality (AR) images can be overlaid on the real-world environment when viewed through the iPad, providing real-time, in-situ imaging of the subsurface elements. iPad hardware and operating systems can be upgraded at any time for improved performance and new features with no need to replace the GPR sensing unit.

Memory and display capabilities allow straight-line scans up to 3,281ft (1,000m), but the unit is better suited ergonomically for shorter line scans and defined areas up to 47.2x47.2in (120x120cm).

The GP8800 antenna is completely contained within the compact housing. The wireless tracking wheel attaches to any side of the housing to allow scanning in any direction and easy cross-polarized measurements. Powered by four rechargeable flight-safe or readily available alkaline AA batteries, the unit operates for up to 2.5 hours under continuous use.

A tethered after-market 5VDC 2A power bank can also be hot-swapped for the battery pack to extend operating times to 8 hours on large projects. Wi-Fi connection to the iPad allows independent operation with no cables at ranges of up to 65ft (20m). Optional accessories include an extra battery pack with rechargeable AA batteries and an ultralight telescoping alloy rod for hard-to-reach areas.

CT-154R GPR Live Pro includes the GP8800 sensing unit and a two-year subscription to GPR Live Pro software. A Wi-Fi module, USB-C cable, carrying case, wrist loop, battery pack, chalk, and two sizes of grid paper are also included.

CT-156R GPR Live Pro Full Package includes the GP8800 sensing unit and Pro software with a one-year subscription and a telescopic rod with a tablet holder that enables convenient access to hard-to-reach areas. A Wi-Fi module, USB-C cable, carrying case, wrist loop, battery pack, chalk, and two sizes of grid paper are also included.

GPR Live Pro data is tracked and secured in the cloud through the Logbook. In addition, to live data sharing, this allows post-processing and data review from any iPad when signed into the connected account. All measurements, changes, gain, and filter settings are tracked and included with the scan. Geolocation, photos, audio notes, and comments can be added to the scan for quick reporting of details to off-site personnel.

Both CT-154R and CT-156R GPR Live Pro systems require a software subscription for full functionality. The Live Pro Software allows the ability to share images and data with your clients via URL, HTML, etc., 3-dimensional functionality, and augmented reality. A two-year subscription is included with both the CT-154R and CT-156R. Subsequent one-year subscription renewals can be purchased as CTA-59 and are required beginning two years from receiving and activating the GPR system’s original subscription

Description

Ground Penetrating Radar with Android Tablet PC.

The Gepard GPR is a very flexible, transportable and powerful ground penetrating radar for detecting underground items like pipelines, cavities, cables, conduits, tunnels, bunkers, foundations and the like. The Gepard ground penetrating radar uses an omni-directional unshielded transmission system to reach maximum depths up to 40 meters deep. This light, agile and compact unit can be easily operated by a single operator.

Ground Penetrating Radar with Android Tablet PC

The RADAR (Radio Detection and Ranging) sends a signal into the ground and awaits the reflection or echo of the signal to detect sub-surface anomalies, like the following:

• Secret Tunnels, Bunkers and Shelters
• Hidden Cavities, Graves and Sepulchers
• Buried Treasure Chests, Statues and Caches
• Buried Pipelines, Conduits and Cable Harnesses
• Back-Filled Wells, Galleries, Trenches and Dugouts
• Water Level and Underground Rivers and Aquifers
• Septic Tanks, Distribution Boxes and Drainage Pipes
• Underground Walls, Basements and Concrete Reinforcements

The Gepard ground penetrating radar is using a multiple transmission frequency range starting at 60 MHz up to 300 MHz which is realized by adjustable telescopic antennas. It furthermore supports many automatic adjustments to optimize your ground surveys on specific soil types, which makes the handling of the Gepard ground radar very easy. You just set your depth resolution and start surveying.

The measured data of the ground penetrating radar is directly transferred to an Android Tablet PC. The Android software receives the data via Bluetooth and displays it immediately on screen.

The software has the capability of integrating a GPS signal, Google Maps, automatic filtering and entering notes for later recollection of specific scan details. Additionally, automatic filtering capabilities are useful to improve the results of your scan and find hidden objects and structures more easily. Due to the integrated GPS all scan positions can be stored along with the scan data.

Optional Accessories:

60 MHz GPR Antenna: The extremely robust 60 MHz antenna allows geophysical measurements up to great depths. This optional GPR antenna penetrates much deeper than the 100 MHz antenna and is especially used to detect larger objects which are lying deeper under the ground surface.

100 MHz GPR Antenna: The 100 MHz antenna is not only robust and stable but also capable to perform high resolution measurements. In contrast to the 60 MHz antenna, the 100 MHz antenna is particularly good for finding small subsurface objects.

OKM Power Pack: Instead of using AAA batteries you are also able to use the Power Pack to operate the "Gepard GPR" ground penetrating radar. In that way you can operate your ground radar up to 10 hours continuously without changing the batteries every 3 hours.
