80.750 - Box Corer 7500 cm², 50 cm penetration:

Application:
The KC Denmark box corer series is a marine geological sampling tool designed for collecting soft sediment samples from lakes or oceans. It is deployed from a research vessel using a deep-sea wire and is suitable for use at any water depth. The design minimizes disturbance of the sediment surface caused by bow-wave effects, which is essential for quantitative investigations of benthic micro- to macrofauna, geochemical processes, bottom water sampling, and sedimentological studies.

The box corer is also available with a penetration depth of 40 cm (80.740) or 75 cm (80.750-75).

Dimensions:

• Height, loaded: 340 cm.
• Bottom frame: (released position): 310 x 290 cm
• Sample area: 86,6 x 86,6 cm
• Penetration depth: 50 cm
• Maximum weight: 3350 kg with 16 additional lead weights
• Finish: Electro polish
• Weight: 2550 kg

Camera option:
For a max. depth of 500 m it is possible adding our camera and light option (requires the 80.000 BR bracket).

Removable front, optional:

Sample tube 80.752-50 comes with a removable front plate for viewing the sediment layers or taking out a sample before emptying the tube. Dimensions of the plate: 400 x 100 mm.

For a larger, removable plate of 450 x 450 mm please order 80.752-50 L.
