Volcanic Monitoring
See what's happening beneath the volcano — from your office.
Built for the world's most remote deployments
Volcanic monitoring demands sensors in some of the world's most remote and hostile environments. Grillo Pulse was built for exactly this.
Powered by a 12 V solar and battery system and connected over LTE, Grillo Pulse sensors need no grid power and no physical data retrieval. Deploy on a crater rim, a volcanic flank, or a remote monitoring post — and manage your entire network from Grillo Cloud.
Real-time seismic data streams to Grillo Cloud, where automatic detection adds events to your catalog and live map and notifies your team in the app. Grillo Cloud can also push the live data as miniSEED over DataLink to your observatory's own server.
Key capabilities
Truly off-grid
Runs from a 12 V solar charge controller and battery. No mains power, no network cabling. Deploy where nothing else can go.
LTE connectivity
Real-time data transmission over cellular networks. No physical data retrieval. No site visits to pull recordings.
Geophone and accelerometer
A 4.5 Hz geophone with a 32-bit converter records small volcano-tectonic events that MEMS-only sensors miss, and the three-axis accelerometer stays on scale in strong shaking.
GPS timing
Accurate event location requires precise timing. Every Grillo Pulse keeps time with GPS, falling back to network time (NTP) when it has no GPS fix.
IP68 weatherproof
An IP68 aluminium case built for harsh environments: rain, dust, and temperature extremes.
Standard data formats
Live miniSEED over DataLink to your server, plus miniSEED and CSV downloads from the waveform archive. Fits your existing seismological workflow.
