Please confirm availability before ordering.
The Wildco® 1160-C42 is the Alpha™ Vertical Water Sampler Kit with a 6.2 L transparent acrylic bottle. This Van Dorn-style sampler is designed to collect representative water samples from a specific depth in lakes, reservoirs, rivers, estuaries, coastal waters, and marine environments. The vertical design allows unrestricted water flow during descent, making it especially effective for collecting water, plankton, floating sediments, and suspended solids. The complete kit includes the sampling bottle, 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 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.
