Introduction
3.1
Overview
The PPS71 GRD (Gamma Ray Detector) Geothermal Memory Gauge measures pressure, RTD
temperature, CCL (casing collar locator), Gamma Ray and flow rate. The electronics of PPS71 are
packed in a flask (Heat Shield Inner Tube), which is suitable for extreme high temperature (up to
350
°
C
) downhole application.
The PPS71 GRD Geothermal Memory Gauge can be run in the traditional mode (pressure and
temperature) or with a depth recorder (PPS36 DepthWatcher) to incorporate depth with downhole
data.
