In a preferred form, the structure comprises three separate elongated housings of rectangular cross section for carrying three separate sensor assemblies. The housings are connected together so that two housings cross one another at right angles and are centered lengthwise with respect to one another. The third housing is connected to one of the first or second housings with its axis disposed at right angles to each and being centered lengthwise with respect to each. Also disclosed is a suspension assembly for suspending the structure in an outer casing, the suspension assembly including a gimbal arrangement whereby the structure is free to swing about a pair of mutually perpendicular gimbal axes.
