PLT600 & RQT800
Our customer adaption for concrete investigations
A customer successfully using our products across several application areas, approached us to develop a bespoke solution specifically for deeper concrete investigations. This customer was aware of the depth penetration limitations of high-frequency GPR instruments traditionally used for concrete investigations. Since they specifically wanted to see deeper into a particular type of concrete structure and the need for road investigations, they inquired if we could adapt our antenna technology for use at 600 MHz and 800 MHz only. Due to the extreme working environment, additional requirements meant the antenna had to be wireless and include an internal battery, as well as meet several non-standard mechanical requirements. The result is the PLT600 (special designed for tunnel investigations) and the RQT800 (special designed for road investigations), which has enabled this customer to satisfy their needs and achieve their objectives.
These antennas have since found further use in high-speed road investigations for near-surface layer mapping.
