RESISTIVITY IMAGING
FOR ENVIRONMENTAL
APPLICATIONS
Compact, easy to use
Automatic ranging
Automatic switching
2 measuring channels
Outputs: 400 V- 100 W- 1.25 A
The SYSCAL JUNIOR Switch-48 is an all-in-one multinode resistivity imaging system.

It features an internal switching board for 48 electrodes and an internal 100W power source.
The output current is automatically adjusted (automatic ranging) to optimise the input
voltage values and ensure the best measurement quality. The system is designed to
automatically perform pre-defined sets of resistivity measurements with roll-along
capability. Four multi-core cables with 12 electrodes takeout each are connected on the back
of the resistivity meter. These heavy-duty cables are available with standard 5 or 10 m
electrode spacings. Customized cables can also be assembled for special arrays or non-
standard applications.
Compact, easy-to-use and field proof, the SYSCAL JUNIOR Switch-48 measures both
resistivity and chargeability (IP). It is ideal for environmental and civil engineering
applications such as pollution monitoring and mapping, salinity control, depth-to-rock
determination and weathered bedrock mapping. It can also be used for shallow groundwater
exploration (depth and thickness of aquifers).
With the SYSCAL JUNIOR Switch-48, resistivity surveys can be performed very efficiently with one operator only.
The well-known reliability and

accuracy of the SYSCAL range of
resistivity meters will also mean extra
value both for the contractor and the
results end-user.
