Van Dorn water sampler

11.100 - 2 litre - shown with direction fin

General:

The horizontal water sampler is intended for taking water samples near the bottom in lakes, streams, or in stratified water bodies. The water sampler is based on the Van Dorn design.

The sampler is made of sturdy transparent PVC and has a double releaser, activated by a drop messenger. The release system is manufactured from AISI 316 stainless steel.

Thermometer:

The water sampler comes with a standard, non-Mercury thermometer, with a temperature range between - 10 and + 60 degrees ^oC (1 degree indications on the scale).

 

When the 2 PVC end covers are released, they are held together by a rubber strap.

 

NEW:

All Van Dorn models have been re-designed for better performance and now the steering fins are integrated into the sampler, ensuring a better stabilization in flowing water.
