Trillium 360 Posthole
Summary

The Trillium 360 Posthole provides full bandwidth coverage for global seismology and teleseismic monitoring in a single instrument.
- Very broadband, exceptional performance that meets GSN operational requirements
- An extended low frequency range useful out to beyond a 10, 000-second time period
- Able to resolve below Peterson's new low-noise model (NLNM) dow to a 300-second time period
- A wide dynamic range with a clip level of +/-18.2 mm/s up to 10 Hz and 0.17 g above 10 Hz
- The lowest magnetic sensitvity of any broadband seismometer
