Groundwater Sampling Equipment
RS Hydro offer a range of groundwater sampling equipment that suit any environment or application, from cost-effective inertial pumps to specialist bladder pumps and peristaltic pumps which provide low flow sampling capabilities; pumps suited to VOC sampling, inexpensive bailers, grab samplers and inertial pumps, to discrete interval samplers.
The 404 Inertial Pump is a cost effective option for groundwater monitoring. It's simple and reliable inertial pump design consists of a riser tube fitted to a one-way foot valve.
The 407 bladder pump from Solinst is a reliable , high performance bladder pump for providing high quality groundwater samples. The bladder pump was designed to prevent all drive air and gas from coming into contact with the sample, ensuring that degassing and contamination are never an issue.
The 428 BioBailer is an inexpensive, biodegradable bailer made from clear, high-quality PVC pipe.
The Solinst Double Valve Pump (DVP) is a pneumatic-drive pump that consistently provides high-quality samples. Field tested in thousands of different applications, the DVP is extremely reliable, never requiring bladder replacement.
The Micro DVP is a pneumatic pump that has a function similar to bladder-based pumps. Rather than using a bladder, it uses coaxial Teflon tubing.
The 410 Peristaltic Pump is designed for vacuum pumping as well as the pressurized delivery of either liquids or gases. Built for field use, its reversible flow is perfect for sampling surface water from locations such as shallow wells
The 425 Discreet Interval Sampler produces representative water samples from areas beneath layers of floating product (LNAPL). Discreet interval sampling is also ideal for obtaining product samples directly (DNAPL).
Powered by 4 AA alkaline batteries, the 464 Electronic Pump Control Unit is able to operate for up to 100 hours. If batteries drain in the field, the pump-control unit can be operated manually from a source of compressed gas.
Point-source sampling collects water as it flows into the desired sampling point, which prevents purging and the disposal of purged water. Because of this, point-source sampling is perfect for obtaining high-quality groundwater samples from specific depths.
800 Low Pressure Pneumatic Packers are a low cost option, which makes them ideal for short-term applications. These packers fit perfectly in 2 and 4 (50 mm and 100 mm) monitoring wells, and they are also suitable for use in smooth boreholes with inner diameters between 1.9 - 5 (48 mm 1...
