Geophone damping

Hi,

I am wondering, how the geophone is damped. Is it done by surrounding oil?

Hello Angela, and welcome back to the community!

Some seismometers that predate the Raspberry Shake (for example, the AS-1 or EQ-1) used oil as a damping agent. However, unlike those, our Shakes use electronic damping instead.

If you have any other questions, we remain available.
