Continuous quality metrics are available within minutes

The Trillium Compact Horizon is extremely simple to deploy with no mass lock and no mass centering required, yet still delivers high quality data across a broad range of frequencies. The exceptionally small size significantly reduces the time and effort required for site preparation and installation.

Performance and Versatility

The ultra-portable Trillium Compact Horizon maintains every aspect of the Trillium Compact performance while being the smallest and lightest model ever produced. At just over 1 kg, it is 1/3 of the weight of the direct-bury Trillium Compact Posthole. The updated design now meets a broader range of use cases, featuring a corrosion proof titanium housing that can be shallow buried up to 10m depth and low sensitivity to both tilt and temperature.

Result of Continuous Improvement

The innovative Trillium Compact Horizon is the result of continuous research and engineering that has produced ground-breaking advances in performance, size, weight and power in several new instruments, including the Trillium Slim Posthole and the Trillium 360 GSN for the Global Seismographic Network. Nanometrics’ commitment to ongoing product development is demonstrated in this improved version of our most compact seismometer.
