Free-flushing oceanographic water sampler
The Free Flow Water Sampler is an innovative design that avoids the limitations of the PWS/Niskin bottles caused by their reduced inlet and outlet diameters. The outstanding feature of the Free Flow Water Sampler is the really free-flushing construction of the sampler where no cone or ball valve influences the water exchange inside the sampling tube.
The Free Flow Water Sampler features a plastic (PVC and POM) design, consisting of a tube with two lids connected by a latex rubber tubing. The lids are kept open during descent, caring for perfect flushing of the sampling tube.
This version of the Free Flow Water Sampler is designed for use with a Seabird Electronics Rosette/Carousel array.
Retrieve the water sample via the discharge cock/tube at the lower end of the sampler.
