The MARK L-4C-3D, made by MARK PRODUCTS, is a 3-component geophone. Adaptor cables are available for EarthData recorders.
The connector has been replaced by a self-cleaning type. The wiring also has been changed: Resistors are added internally to obtain a damping of 0.7, and for a standardized calibration of each single component.
