Alpha Water Sampler, 4.2 L, Horizontal, Opaque PVC, Sampler Only
Product Code: 1140-H45
Please confirm availability before ordering.
The Wildco® 1140-H45 is a 4.2 L Alpha™ Horizontal Water Sampler featuring a durable opaque PVC bottle. This sampler-only model is designed for users who already have a compatible messenger, calibrated sampling line, and carrying case. Its horizontal (Van Dorn-style) configuration descends parallel to the bottom and is pulled sideways immediately before closing, ensuring a representative sample from a specific depth. It is particularly effective for sampling at the thermocline, stratified water layers, and just above bottom sediments.
• Blue seals of durable, flexible, high-grade polyurethane resin with attached safety line
• Foolproof 316 SS trip head for durability
• Not suitable for chemical sampling
4.2 Litre Capacity
SBK2 messenger & 62-C15 line (100 ft.) are sold separately.
The PVC body is opaque, but is more durable and less expensive than acrylic. 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, inquire about the Beta or suggested Kemmerer water samplers. This sampler requires a messenger and line (not included, except in kits) for operation. A thermometer can be mounted inside acrylic Alpha™ bottles.
