The quick release
water sampler is ideal for sample removal from
wastewater, shallow wells and surface water, including
lakes, ponds, and holding pools. The water sampler is
lightweight, rugged, easy to use, weather resistant, and
requires minimal maintenance. The peristaltic pump is
designed to take a manual sample and has the ability to
back flush the sample hose once you are finished taking
the sample.
Power
The water sampler operates using an external 12 volt DC
power source that can supply at least 2 A continuous.
The variable speed motor is reversible and can draw
water samples at a wide range of speed.
A power cord, 10 ft (3.05 m) long, is included with
each quick release water sampler. The power cord is
fitted with alligator clips for easy connection to most
12-volt DC batteries, including car batteries or small
12V, 5 AH gel cells.
Sampling
To provide high sample integrity, the water sample only
contacts the PharMed BPT and polyethylene tubing. The
tubing is easily cleaned or replaced. The Masterflex
easy load design and adjustable tubing retention system
allow for multiple tubing sizes and for changing the
tubing without removing the pump head from the drive.
To avoid cross contamination or lengthy decontamination
procedures simply change the inexpensive tubing between
samples.
