Centralized and decentralized power supply
SUMMIT II Plus - the system of flexibility. Now you have got two possibilities to supply your Remote Units with power:
The centralized power supply
You simply connect your Remote Units to a central battery station e.g. a car or truck battery. This lowers your material effort as well as your capital costs considerably. Thanks to the wide input voltage range of the Remote Units (9V to 36V) you can typically supply up to 15 units with one battery.
For the centralized power supply we developed the 4-wired Power Line Cable that gives you excellent flexibility, stable connection and it combines the supply of power with data transfer. By using Repeater Units at the end of each Battery Line Segment you can extend your active spread without any limit. For details about the configuration of SUMMIT II Plus, please download our SUMMIT II Plus construction guide.
The decentralized power supply
If your geophone space varies a lot along the line or you would like to combine your existing original SUMMIT System with SUMMIT II Plus, the decentralized power supply is your choice. This solution offers you the usual flexibility of the original SUMMIT System plus a Remote Unit that is separated from the power supply. Thus you can easily exchange the external batteries without changing the logistics. The Remote Units are connected with the two-wired SUMMIT Line Cable like in the original SUMMIT System. With the new Snap-on technology it is easier to connect the cables to the units.
