SIR® 4000 

Rugged, High-Performance GPR Controller

The SIR® 4000 is GSSI’s premier GPR control unit designed to operate with both analog and digital antennas. This controller bridges the legacy of our traditional analog antennas and our digital offerings. This evolutionary step allows for true system flexibility by supporting a wide range of users across numerous applications. Coupling a large color display with a highly rugged design allows users to have a high-performance GPR controller for everyday field applications. 

The SIR 4000 Advantage

The SIR 4000 offers a multitude of data collection modules including Quick 3D, UtilityScan, StructureScan and Expert Mode. It also incorporates advanced display methods and filtering capabilities for processing and imaging in the field. The SIR 4000 also provides a simple user interface, plug-and-play GPS integration and convenient data transfer options.

SIR 4000 FEATURES

Modular Design, Flexible Solutions

The SIR 4000 is compatible with all GSSI analog and digital stand-alone antennas and offers options for every user in many different applications. The controller can transmit at a rate of up to 800 KHz, offers a 32-bit output data format, and has a max time range of 20,000 ns. The SIR 4000 also allows for GPS integration from low-end to RTK based GPS systems. This controller was designed to withstand rain and dusty environments, and is rated at IP65. 

Premier User Interface

With a Windows® based OS and a high-resolution 10.4” LED display, the SIR 4000 has an easy-to-use UI that allows for quick navigation through multiple application modules. The startup screen on the SIR 4000 is a very simple interface to navigate where users can launch application-specific modules, last used settings, start new projects, or play back data from previous projects. 

In addition, users can configure the SIR 4000 with personalized settings including language, units, and color themes. Using the knob or soft key features, users can select various menu options easily and efficiently. Users have the ability to change display gain and filters in realtime while collecting data. Additionally, users can change the scale, add reference marks, and personalize the color display. Filters include hyperbola matching for data migration, surface position tracking, signal floor tracking and adaptive background removal.

DATA VISUALIZATION

SIR® 30

The SIR 30 Advantage

The SIR 30 offers advanced filters and display capabilities for real-time processing including migration, surface positioning, signal floor tracking, and adaptive background removal. As the basis of a high-speed data collection system, the SIR 30 is ideal for measuring pavement layer thickness, detection of cavities, airport runway assessment, detection of fouled/clean ballast and utility detection. 

SIR 30 FEATURES

Versatile Unit

The SIR 30 has numerous mounting configurations depending on how it is needed for each job and work environment. This system has full internal GPS capability, USB, and ethernet ports for full data transfer. 

Deliver Results

The SIR 30 was designed for high-speed GPR data collection and is capable of more than 5,792 scans per second across four channels.

Rugged Design

The SIR 30 is built with an aluminum exterior and rubber bumpers, and sized for vehicle rack mounts. For operation in harsh environments, GSSI created the SIR 30E, a modified version of the SIR 30 controller. The SIR 30E can collect up to two channels of data.

DATA VISUALIZATION

The SIR 30 is designed with a modern user interface and custom remote controls, and is suited for sophisticated applications. It can be operated with a customer provided laptop or as a stand-alone system with a monitor and a keyboard. Data can be viewed in real-time or exported for additional processing.
