80.000-50 - Box corer, 600 cm², 50 cm penetration:

Application:
KC Denmark's box corer's series is a marine geological sampling tool for soft sediment in lakes or oceans. It is deployed from a research vessel with a deep-sea wire and suitable for any water depth. It is designed for a minimum of disturbance of the sediment surface by bow wave effects which is important for quantitative investigations of the benthos micro- to macrofauna, geochemical processes, sampling of bottom water or sedimentology.

The main racks for 600 cm² and 1000 cm² box corers are identical; the only difference is the size of the corer tube as well as the inner shovel.

Lead weights:
The weight base is configurable with up to 18 lead weights, each 20 kg (max. 360 kg). Larger capacity on request.

Easy handling:
When the rack is lifted by a winch the integrated handles allow an easy and swift guidance of the box corer.
