XOM-35A Integrated MPU/TPS Orientation Module

The XOM-35A is the latest Orientation Module development from Azimuth incorporating the entire MPU functionality for Tensor based MWD systems within a single integrated module. Qualification and calibration to 185DegC ensures performance in the most demanding ‘hot-hole’ applications.

Utilising 185 DegC Quartz-Flex Accelerometers (or MEMS lo-temp option) and proprietary high temperature ‘flux-gate’ Magnetometers, the sensor is designed to operate reliably at 185Dgec and provide accurate and repeatable measurements including Rotational and Continuous INC.
