The Wildco® 1140-D42 is the Alpha™ Vertical Water Sampler Kit featuring a 4.2 L opaque PVC bottle. Designed for vertical, depth-specific water sampling, this Van Dorn-style sampler is ideal for collecting representative water samples, plankton, floating sediments, and suspended solids from lakes, reservoirs, rivers, estuaries, and marine environments. The complete kit includes the water sampler, messenger, sampling line, and carrying case. The PVC construction provides excellent impact resistance and durability, making it well suited for demanding field applications.
• 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
Kit Includes SBK2 messenger, 62-C15 line (100 ft.) and Carrying Case.
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 for operation.
