Blue seals of durable, flexible, high-grade polyurethane resin with attached safety line • 316 SS trip head for durability • Not suitable for chemical sampling • Kits include bottle, plastic carry case, 45-B10 messenger & 62-C15 line (100 ft.) • Bottles only & bottles with cases available
Larger bottles are especially good for collecting small plankton. The wide mouth collects a true water sample with no contamination from other water levels. During descent, the open mouth does not restrict water flow. This makes them particularly suitable for collecting plankton, floating sediments and for use where metallic ion avoidance is desirable. Your choice of transparent acrylic or more durable opaque PVC.
Alpha samplers are not suitable for chemical analysis of contents due to the potential for contamination (i.e. by mercury and phosphorus) by the materials in the sampler’s construction. For chemical analysis, choose our Beta or trace Kemmerer water samplers.
This sampler requires a messenger and line (not included, except in kits) for operation, and is not suitable for series sampling. A thermometer can be mounted inside acrylic Alpha™ bottles.
