Low Power and High Effiency Energy Acquisition Systems for Volcano Monitoring

Angel Moure, Pedro Torres

Abstract

Two acquisition systems have been developed to acquire low sampling rate parameters (volcanic gases content and meteorological parameters) related with volcano activity. The first device (gDT316) is a 16 bits five-channel datalogger with a SD storage. The second one (gCNT16) is a simple three-channel 16 bits counter with EEPROM storage. Their main characteristics are low power consumption and low cost manufacturing. Here we describe both devices and the first three examples retrieved applying them on a volcano monitoring network (Tenerife Island, Spain).
