1. Introduction to the S-Boom System
The S-Boom system is a high power hi-resolution repeatable sound source and when deployed
with a CSP-S 1200, the system can be operated at fast repetition rates. The transmitted energy
is focused by the array geometry to improve the directivity and beam pattern giving an
improvement over traditional seismic sound sources.
The frequency of operation and transmitted power levels allow the system to be used with both
single and multi-channel streamer hydrophone arrays for high resolution geological surveys for
construction, mapping, research and geo hazard.
The S-Boom sound source consists of 3 AA252 boomer plates complete with thermal interlock
for safe operation, a HVC3000 cable and a CAT303 catamaran. The system is powered by the
CSP range of seismic power supplies.
