Micromate
Seamlessly record vibration, sound/noise level, or air overpressure with just one monitoring unit. The Micromate was custom engineered with a rugged and reliable design to withstand harsh conditions, including water resistance. Experience zero dead time that includes 10 to 15 days of uninterrupted monitoring with the provided internal battery. The Micromate’s 15 MB of memory can store up to 1,000 events, upgradeable to 4,000 events with the extended 60 MB memory option.
The Micromate is light and portable. It is small enough to fit in the palm of your hand and features a high-resolution color touchscreen display with a QWERTY keypad. It features a built-in USB port so you can easily connect a USB flash drive to transfer events or even update the unit’s firmware – quickly, easily, and all in the field without the need for a computer.
The Micromate comes with three channels for a triaxial geophone and one channel for an air overpressure or sound-level microphone. Each base unit is coupled with a geophone and configured to meet one of the following industry standards: International Society of Explosives Engineers (ISEE-2022), Deutsches Institut für Normung (DIN 45669-1), Swedish Blasting (SS4604866), and Swedish Pile Driving (SS025211).
Features
Touch-Screen Display
The Micromate features a touch screen display with large, high resolutions graphics, and a keypad. The full display touch screen QWERTY keyboard makes entry of data and notes convenient and easy.
Expansive Memory
Includes an internal, non-volatile memory of 15 MB that can store up to 1000 events. An optional upgrade increases the memory to 60 MB for a storage capacity of over 4000 events.
Real-Time OS
Feel confident knowing that you will never miss an event. If the event lasts longer than the preconfigured record time, the Micromate will continue to capture the event. Trigger once, but capture each and every event while keeping your sample size small.
Built-In USB
Standard on every Micromate unit is a USB port with operating speeds of up to 12 MBps. Connect a USB flash drive to transfer events or even update the unit’s firmware – quickly, easily and all in the field without the need for a computer. Choose the optional auxiliary port and get additional support for remote alarms, external wire triggers and more! With the Micromate, the possibilities are endless.
Rugged and Reliable Design
The Micromate is built to last. The main unit comes with a fully sealed top panel. The non-corrosive fully sealed industrial-grade connectors are labeled and color-coded for easy identification and installation. Custom molded housings for the base unit are made of superior impact polycarbonate. An optional protective “boot” provides the highest level of durability and ruggedness available in Instantel’s product line. The operating temperature range is -40 to 55 °C (-40 to 131 °F). Reliability is at the core of everything Instantel makes!
