WCZ-3 High-Accuracy Proton Magnetometer with GPS Integration The WCZ-3 Proton Magnetometer stands as a pinnacle of innovation in geophysical instrumentation,
engineered to deliver sub-nanotesla precision for demanding applications such as mineral exploration, pipeline
mapping, and archaeological studies. Combining dual 32-bit microcontroller architecture with GPS-enhanced navigation, this device redefines efficiency in field surveys while adhering
to stringent industry standards like China’s DZ/T0071-93 and global IGRF models.
Core Advantages Unmatched Speed and Gradient Performance The WCZ-3 achieves field measurements in ≤2 seconds (Normal Mode) and ≤3 seconds (Fine Mode), enabling rapid coverage of large survey grids. Its 8,000 nT/m gradient tolerance ensures stability in magnetically chaotic zones, while the emergency estimation mode provides actionable data when gradients exceed limits, minimizing
downtime. Dual-Probe Synchronization Technology An optional dual-channel upgrade allows simultaneous data capture from two probes, slashing survey
time by 50% compared to traditional sequential systems. This is critical for
time-sensitive projects like UXO detection or fault line analysis,
where synchronized gradient calculations enhance accuracy. Multi-Coordinate GPS Precision Integrated <2.5m CEP GPS supports WGS84, UTM, Beijing 54, Xi’an 80, and custom grids. The real-time deviation display guides operators to exact preset coordinates, reducing positioning
errors during grid-based surveys. Comprehensive Data Logging and Export Store 2 million+ data points with timestamped magnetic values, elevations, temperatures, and
GPS coordinates. Data exports via USB/U-disk enable instant compatibility with GIS platforms for contour
mapping, 3D modeling, and automated diurnal correction. Ruggedized Field-Ready Design Weighing 1.5kg with IP54-rated durability, the WCZ-3 thrives in extreme conditions (-10°C to +50°C). The 4,000-measurement battery supports all-day operations, while external 12V compatibility
ensures uninterrupted base station monitoring.
