2SNA-1000-S Spectral Gamma Tool
Borehole Equipment
Brochure (PDF)
The 2SNA-1000-S DX series spectral gamma probe section is a versatile tool
that can be used in a wide variety of logging applications. The tool section
measures natural gamma spectra, single point resistance, and spontaneous
potential. Since the tool is part of the DX family of probes, it can be
operated with any DX probe section.
In this manner, additional measurements (such as density) can be added to
the tool string.
Users can select from three operational modes (256, 512, or 1024 channel)
based on their survey needs. The tool section is offered with several
different options. The standard 2SNA-1000-S uses a 0.875 by 3 inch NaI(Tl)
scintillator. The probe section is available with a BGO scintillator
(2SNA-1000-SB) for more efficient detection of high energy gamma particles.

The 2SNA-1000-S provides real time temperature compensation not
typically offered by other systems. The response from conventional tools
drifts as temperature changes. This drift is dramatic when using a BGO
scintillator. The 2SNA-1000-S has been calibrated at the factory using
several different sources and a swept temperature bath. Calibration
coefficients resulting from these tests are stored inside the tool so that
real time temperature compensation can be performed.
