	7	+Broadband (or BB) sensors are especially sensitive to low frequency energy, and are //broad//ly defined as any instrument capable of **reliably recording wave periods greater or equal to 10 seconds**. This makes them useful for analysis and detection of teleseismic earthquakes as well as techniques involving ambient noise. However they are also well-suited for measuring high frequency energy, limited only by the Nyquist frequency of the [[data logger>>doc:Instrumentation.ANU LPR-200.WebHome]]'s sampling rate. The downside to broadband sensors is usually their cost, size, and fragility relative to short period sensors.
8	8
9		-Broadband sensors are not especially suited for very high frequency analysis as most tend to have an upper sensitivity limit of ~~100 Hz (e.g. achievable via 200 Hz sample rate). For this reason **we do not recommend people record data above 250 Hz** as it is wasteful. If you need to reliably measure energy above 100 Hz one of the SmartSolo nodes is more suitable.

11	11	== Nanometrics ==
12	12
13		-Currently, four kinds of Nanometrics broadband seismic sensors are available. The Trillium Compact 120s, Trillium Compact 20s, Trillium Compact Posthole, and the Trillium Compact Horizon. These seismometers are ideal for long-term deployments of multiple months. All of these seismometers are compatible with the LPR-200 and TSAWR loggers and are designed for low energy consumption.

17		-The Trillium Compact 120s has sensitivity band between 120 seconds and 100 Hz but is prone to corrosion when buried for long periods. They have a tilt tolerance of ~~10° but come with adjustable feet for leveling.

28		-
29		-The Trillium Compact Posthole is designed with a robust casing allowing it to be deployed via direct-burial without a vault or protective case. It does NOT have leveling feet nor a bubble (**bring your own!**), nor can its mass be rebalanced. The cable is also quite a bit more stiff so may require burial at an increased depth. If installed inside a vault, the cable may also unbalance the sensor if left by itself. The instrument response is identical to a Trillium Compact 120.

33		-=== Trillium Compact Horizon ===
34		-
35		-The Trillium Compact Horizon is sort of a mix between the Posthole and Compact 120, ideal for shallow direct bury deployments or instances where packing weight and size is an important consideration. Its response and sensitivity is identical to the Trillium Compact 120s.

37		-=== SmartSolo Broadbands ===

39		-Two types of SmartSolo brand seismometers are currently available, one of which is a broadband seismometer. More information is available on the [[SmartSolo Seismometers page>>doc:Instrumentation.SmartSolo Nodes.WebHome]].

41	41	= Short period sensors =
42	42
43		-Short-period (SP) sensors have limited sensitivity to longer periods, but are otherwise perfectly suitable for earthquake or other high-frequency analysis. They are generally defined as any instrument that begins to **lose sensitivity at periods larger than 10 seconds**. They tend to be smaller and more mechanically robust to broadband sensors.

51		-Sometimes erroneously referred to as a "broadband node", the larger cylinder-shaped BD3C-5 is technically a //short period //instrument as it has a corner period of 5 seconds (< 10). It is still a high gain seismometer however (e.g. channels ?H[NEZ]). More information is available on the [[SmartSolo Seismometers page>>doc:Instrumentation.SmartSolo Nodes.WebHome]].
