Sandia National Laboratories has fabricated a Seismic Sensor Temperature Testbed (SSTT) suitable for exposing sensors under test to a range of reasonably stable temperatures while a co-located reference sensor is maintained at room temperature. The testbed has proven sufficiently quiet to allow recording of high-coherence signals from regional earthquakes in the passband of the seismometers, allowing a direct comparison of signals between the sensors under test and the reference sensor.

Sandia National Laboratories has tested and evaluated the Reftek Wrangler digitizer. The Wrangler digitizers are intended to record sensor output for seismic and infrasound monitoring applications. The purpose of this digitizer evaluation is to measure the performance characteristics in such areas as power consumption, input impedance, sensitivity, full scale, self-noise, dynamic range, system noise, response, passband, and timing. The Wrangler digitizers are being evaluated for potential use in the International Monitoring System (IMS) and On-site Inspection (OSI) components of Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty (CTBT).
