MoHo Tromino - Rentals

Description

Lithogen offers the MoHo Tromino passive seismic instrument for rent in Canada and the USA.

The MoHo Tromino is a compact passive seismic instrument designed for ambient vibration and microtremor measurements in field and research environments. It integrates high-sensitivity three-component seismic sensors with onboard data acquisition, built-in GPS positioning, and wireless communication, enabling efficient site characterization and subsurface investigations. Its lightweight, AA battery-powered design allows rapid deployment across a wide range of field conditions, while integrated radio triggering enables multiple units to be started simultaneously for synchronized multi-station measurements.

Key Features

– Integrated three-component seismic sensors for passive vibration and ambient noise measurements
– Built-in GPS receiver for precise timing, synchronization, and location recording
– Radio trigger capability allowing multiple Tromino units to be started simultaneously using a wireless trigger signal
– Compact, lightweight design supporting rapid deployment in field surveys
– Dynamic range: high-gain velocity channels (±1.2 mm/s standard, ±0.15 mm/s in Gx8 mode), low-gain velocity channels (±45.6 mm/s), and integrated accelerometer (±2 g)

Applications

– Seismic microzonation and site response studies, including mapping subsoil resonance frequencies using the Horizontal-to-Vertical Spectral Ratio (HVSR) technique
– Shear-wave velocity (Vs) profiling, including constrained H/V curve modelling with independent geological or geophysical constraints
– MASW and seismic refraction surveys using a single receiver with radio-triggered acquisition
– Seismic array surveys using active or passive multichannel methods such as SASW, ReMi, ESAC, SPAC, FTAN, and SSAP, enabled by built-in radio and GPS synchronization
