Product Code: 1130-C42
Please confirm availability before ordering.
The Wildco® 1130-C42 is the Alpha™ Vertical Water Sampler Kit featuring a 3.2 L transparent acrylic bottle. Designed for vertical, depth-specific water sampling, this Van Dorn-style sampler is ideal for collecting representative water samples, plankton, and suspended sediments from lakes, reservoirs, rivers, estuaries, and marine environments. The wide-mouth design allows unrestricted water flow during descent, helping ensure an accurate sample from the target depth.
• 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
3.2 Litre Capacity
Kit Includes SBK2 messenger, 62-C15 line (100 ft.) and Carrying Case.
The body is made from transparent acrylic that allows you to view the bottle contents immediately. 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.
