RT-4S reel is designed for the operation with borehole seismic arrays. It is equipped with slip ring that makes possible to leave the equipment plugged in while winding and unwinding the cable. The reel size varies depending on array specifications (cable diameter and number of sensors). Hydrophone arrays completely fit the reel drum. In case of geophone array the drum fit only the cable tale whereas the sensors are located in a separate bag. The reel is equipped with ergonomic folding rotary handle. The reel frame also has a drum holding lock.
We also recommend the use of RT-1A reel equipped with a marked wire (1 m-spacing) together with RT-4S reel during the well-logging operations.
