- 5. Concrete Inspection 2600 MHz Antenna Solutions 2600 MHz: High-Resolution Antenna The 2600 MHz is an ultra-high resolution antenna used to inspect concrete structures to locate embedded rebar, post tension cables and conduits. Depth Range: to 12 in (0.4 m) 1600 MHz 1600 MHz: General Purpose Antenna The 1600 MHz is a high-resolution, all-purpose antenna used to inspect concrete structures to locate embedded rebar, post tension cables and conduits. It is used on bridge decks for condition assessment and to determine concrete cover. Depth Range: to 18 in (0.5 m) 1000 MHz 1000 MHz: Deep Penetration Antenna The 1000 MHz antenna represents the state-of-the-art in shallow earth or deeper concrete imaging. This antenna is appropriate in areas where higher frequencies do not provide adequate penetration and lower frequencies do not provide acceptable resolution. Depth Range: to 24 in (0.6 m) Concrete slab with rebar and PVC conduit, Rebar same slab for all data sets. PVC 2000 MHz: Palm Antenna The new Palm Antenna offers users the ability to reach tightly spaced areas that were previously inaccessible such as corners, against walls and around obstructions. The Palm Antenna is compatible with the SIR-3000 and SIR-20 control units. The antenna includes a dedicated survey wheel, a replaceable skid plate, and removable handle to reduce antenna height, if necessary. The Palm Antenna weighs in at approximately one pound. Depth Range: to 12 in (0.4 m) 2000 MHz Palm 6-inch spacing wire mesh in concrete. www.geophysical.com
