General information

VIY5-300. New generation of Ground Penetrating Radars.

Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) is designed for non-destructive scanning and inspecting of different

structures and underground objects.

GPR can be applied by geophysicists, building companies, can be used in different ecological investigations,

utilities condition assessment (including both metallic and non-metallic, plastic, concrete, asbestos pipes).

Also the equipment can be used for searching and mapping of: underground water sources leaks, oil and

other dangerous liquids underground pollutions; ground water level.

VIY5-300 Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) has antenna with central frequencies of 300 MHz.

Application of VIY5-300 GPR

• Utilities mapping and detection (pipes, cables);

• Civil engineering surveys (building basements, cellars etc.);

• Search for buried waste products, and graves;

• Mapping and location of near surface voids, karst and other cavities;

• Determination of boundaries of petroleum contamination zones etc.

• Archaeology

• Forensic and security investigations.

General information

Main components description

GPR consists of antenna unit connected via USB to a computer (laptop). Operator controls antenna unit

through VIY5 software.

Optionally user can use with GPR antenna:

• Cart-46 GPR Handcart with bidirectional odometer

• VO-22 bidirectional odometer

• GPS receiver

Handcart version

Picture below shows the general view of the version of VIY5-300 GPR with Cart-46 Handcart.

The antenna unit is suspended under the Handcart on ropes.

Laptop should be placed on Handcart laptop holder.

9We recommend to stick Velcro tape to the bottom of a laptop and a laptop holder to not let

laptop drop.

The antenna should be connected to the Handcart via EXT Handcart cable (built on the Handcart).

Then DATA socket on the Handcart should be connected to USB port of operator’s laptop via DC5-1 Cable.

Handcart odometer should be connected to Odometer socket on the antenna via Handcart Odometer cable

(built on the Handcart).

Bidirectional odometer is built into the right rear wheel of the Handcart.

If GPS is present, it should be connected to GPS socket on the antenna.

Cart-46 Handcart

Cart-46 is GPR Handcart that is designed to carry either AB5-37, AB5-300, AB5-600 and AB-900 antenna

units.

It can be folded and deployed easily and within very short time. The Handcart’s parts and laptop holder can

be xed with a help of eccentric clamps.

The Handcart contains battery compartment, so user can use it to place GPR battery while carrying antenna

on board.

Also the Handcart has its own cables to connect odometer to antenna and to connect EXT socket of antenna

to the Handcart’s EXT socket.

DC5-1 Cable should be directly connected to antenna’s Data socket that is located on antenna’s body.

Transportation pole

The transportation pole is a special handle that should be mounted to the antenna unit to move antenna

forward and backward during data acquisition process.
