Please confirm availability before ordering
The Wildco® 1160-G42 is the Alpha™ Horizontal Water Sampler Kit featuring a 6.2 L transparent acrylic bottle. This large-capacity Van Dorn-style sampler is designed to collect representative water samples at a precise depth in lakes, reservoirs, rivers, estuaries, and marine environments. The horizontal orientation minimizes mixing between water layers, making it ideal for sampling thermoclines, stratified water columns, and water immediately above bottom sediments. The kit includes the sampler, messenger, sampling line, and carrying case.
• 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
6.2 Litre Capacity
Kit Includes SBK2 messenger , 62-C15 line (100 ft.) and Carrying Case.
The clear acrylic body 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.
