Large Volume Sampler

 

 

Goal

 

Enable sampling of  1 m^3 seawater from 1 depth in a single and fast deployment.

 

 

Description

The Large Volume Sampler consists of a drum-like tank with lids on top and bottom.

The sampler can be lowered with open lids using a CTD-cable. The lids can be closed on command with a General Oceanics carousel (12 positions, using only one). This GO-carousel can be controlled directly or via an SBE9plus CTD.

 

 

Remarks

The Large Volume Sampler is mainly used for geological research.
