STS-2 (legacy product)

 

Despite its age, the STS-2 is still a high performance broadband-seismometer. Three versions exist: Standard, High Gain and Low Power. The latter is the most common one.

Although the sensor is obsoleted since 2010 we still provide a limited support. Repairs however are not possible anymore.
