In the fields of directional drilling, logging and mining, accurate control of direction and attitude is the core of successful operations. The complex industrial environment makes traditional sensors helpless. A new type of north seeker has become a tool for technological innovation with its unique advantages. Today we’ll take a closer look at why it’s essential for jobs in these fields.
**Break through space limitations: special-shaped design for easy installation**
Traditional inclinometers and MWD systems are installed at a certain distance from the drill bit, causing measurement errors; The cylindrical north seeker ER-MNS-09 adopts a compact design of 120mm × Φ30mm and weighs ≤150g. It can be directly embedded in the drilling rig's probe pipe and installed close to the drill bit.
This design is particularly suitable for oil logging tools (such as gyro tools, HDD tools) and TBM, significantly reducing measurement errors.
**Industry-leading accuracy: 0.25°secψ north-seeking accuracy**
In magnetic mining areas or deep well environments, magnetic field interference often leads to azimuth measurement deviations. The north seeker achieves true north orientation based on a three-axis MEMS gyroscope and accelerometer, with an accuracy of up to 0.25°secψ (1σ), far exceeding similar products on the market (generally 0.5°~1°secψ). The measurement error of the azimuth is controlled within a very small range.
Attitude tracking can be performed: output pitch, roll, and azimuth data to provide adjustment basis for drilling rigs or mining equipment. Initial attitude calibration and true north orientation are automatically completed in 5 minutes, greatly shortening the deployment time.
**A reliable partner in harsh environments: shock resistance, wide temperature range, and long battery life**
The operating environment of the oil and mining industry is extreme. The high-temperature version of the north seeker has an operating temperature of 5~125℃, which is suitable for high-temperature environments in deep wells; it can withstand strong shocks and vibrations during drilling to ensure continuous and stable data; it only requires 2W power and supports 6~12V wide voltage input, which is suitable for long-term continuous operation.
**Why choose a cylindrical north finder? **
Technological breakthrough: breaking the monopoly, the performance is comparable to that of a fiber optic gyroscope, and the cost is reduced;
Customized service: providing different accuracy and different temperature versions, normal temperature version (5~55℃) and high temperature version (5~125℃), to adapt to different operational needs;
