The sampler provides a standardized surface that can be colonized by aquatic organisms before being retrieved and examined in the laboratory. Hester-Dendy samplers are used in rivers, streams, lakes and other aquatic environments and can help reduce some of the variability associated with sampling naturally occurring bottom substrates. \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 150-A90 is the 14-plate square EPA configuration, consisting of fourteen square plates measuring approximately 7.6 cm × 7.6 cm (3 × 3 inches). The plates are separated by 24 round spacers, arranged to create progressively larger spaces between plates. The sampler has an approximate exposed surface area of 0.16 m², excluding the eyebolt. \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sampler can be suspended in the water column, attached to submerged objects or deployed using an appropriate anchor. For stream studies, Wildco notes that multiple samplers are generally used together and secured to a weight to keep them from contacting the natural substrate. \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel: 150-A90\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: Square Hester-Dendy artificial substrate sampler\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConfiguration: 14-plate EPA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNumber of plates: 14\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlate dimensions: 7.6 × 7.6 cm (3 × 3 in.)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlate material: Tempered hardboard\/masonite\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNumber of spacers: 24\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpacer diameter: 2.5 cm (1 in.)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEyebolt: 1\/4 in.
