Product Code: 1087
The LaMotte® 1087 Horizontal Water Sampler is a lightweight, messenger-operated sampler designed for collecting discrete water samples at specific depths in lakes, reservoirs, rivers, ponds, and coastal waters. The sampler remains open while being lowered, then is sealed by a weighted messenger released down a calibrated line, capturing an uncontaminated sample from the selected depth. With a 1,200 mL capacity, clear acrylic collection chamber, and corrosion-resistant stainless steel components, the Model 1087 is well suited for educational programs, environmental monitoring, aquaculture, and general water quality investigations.
- Collects representative water samples at predetermined depths without contamination from upper water layers.
- Horizontal sampling orientation minimizes disturbance and provides accurate depth-specific sampling.
- Messenger-operated trigger securely seals both end caps at the desired depth.
- Clear acrylic collection chamber allows visual inspection of the sample before dispensing.
- Approximately 1.2 L capacity provides sufficient volume for multiple laboratory analyses.
- 20-meter calibrated line with 1-meter markings simplifies accurate depth positioning.
- Corrosion-resistant stainless steel components provide long service life in freshwater, brackish, and marine environments.
- Sampling port allows withdrawal of small aliquots without opening the entire chambers.
