Plankton Pumps for 6000 m depth
General:
KC plankton pump for vertical pull; the pump itself is constructed
of AISI 316 stainless steel, and has a capacity of 20000 L per
hour, the plankton pump is used to pump various size of plankton
for collecting and taking samples. As a standard, model 23.590
Plankton pump comes with a 60 µm mesh size (Micro plankton), this
however can be changed upon request. A new net bag and a collecting
bottle can be bought later on.
The system is equipped with a quick change system for the
collecting bottles, which enables the user to run many samples
without much delay.
Decription:
• For 6000 m.
• Made of AISI 316 stainless steel.
• Power supply: 24 VDC.
• Height: 1470 mm.
• Diameter: Net bag: Ø180 mm, length 490 mm.
• Inclusive net bag, mesh size 60 µm.
• Weight, exclusive the battery cylinder: 21 kg.
• Exclusive the battery cylinder, etc.
The pump can be operated in 2 ways:
• Programmable sampling: The water sampling can be programmed for
various time and intervals, max. 24 times. Requires the time lapsed
trigger 60.010 etc., and it is programmable for any value between 1
min. and 545 hours. The standard battery capacity supports a
maximum deployment up to 28 days in total, but only valid for
sequential pumping, not for continuously use. Individually settings
can be set for each sample. Triggering by pressure can be offered
on request. (Pressure transmitter is not included, please ask KC
Denmark A/S for more information). Triggering by pressure can be
offered upon request. (Pressure transmitter is not included,
please ask KC Denmark A/S for more information).
• Non-programmable sampling: When the pump is outside the
bulwarks, ready for deployment, simply connect the power supply and
the pump will start. The pump must be covered by water within short
time (the pump must not be operated without water for more than 60
secs.). In this way you will pump all the way down to the desired
depth; i.e. you will get samples from the entire water column.
Below please find more details about what is needed for a complete system.
Programmable sampling:
23.590 - Plankton pump
100.217 - Battery cylinder
100.235 - Battery charger
60.010 - Time lapsed trigger (USB interface)
100.230 - Cable
100.234 - Plug for switching on the timer
Non-programmable sampling:
23.590 - Plankton pump
100.217 - Battery cylinder
100.235 - Battery charger
100.230 - Cable from battery box to motor
100.234 Starter Plug.
The starter plug is used for starting the system after it has been
preprogrammed for sampling, a delay can be implanted in the program
so that the pump first starts pumping after a set amount of time,
another option is a trigger system done by pressure transmitter.
(Pressure transmitter is not included, please ask KC Denmark
A/S for more information).
100.230 Cable from battery box to motor.
The motor cable is connecting the motor system on the pump with
the battery box, using Subconn connectors.
100.235 Battery charger.
The battery charger has an input of 100 - 240 VAC, and is fitted
with a Subconn connector to fit the battery box.
100.217 Battery Cylinder
The 100.217 battery cylinder (24 VDC) with capacatity of 10 Amp/h
is made of AISI 316 stainless steel. The battery box is pressure
tested for 6000 m, and have room for the 60.010 time lapsed trigger
circuit board. Tthe battery cylinder is delivered with the needed
SubConn connectors (bulk heads) for a fully usable pump. Dimensions
for the cylinder: length 500 mm, diameter 121/87 mm (excluding
cables and battery charger). More infromation see: Pressure stable battery
cylinder
Customized solutions:
The 23.590 plankton pump, also has the ability to be customized to
different types of CTD's, that is required during sampling, to the
right is a photo showing one of those option, please keep in mind
KC Denmark A/S will need all the relevant information for
size/height/weight for any CTD that is to be build on to the pump.
