| Definition | A large volume, single-event sampler that collects suspended and dissolved particulate samples in situ. Ambient water is drawn through a modular filter holder onto a 142 mm membrane without passing through the pump. The standard two-tier filter holder provides prefiltering and size fractioning. Collection targets include chlorophyll maximum, particulate trace metals and phytoplankton. Features different flow rates and filter porosity to support a range of specimen collection. Sampling can be programmed to start at a scheduled time or begin with a countdown delay. Features a dynamic pump speed algorithm which adjusts flow to protect the sample as material accumulates on the filter. Several pump options ranging from 0.5 to 30 litres/minute, with a max volume of 2,500 to 36,000 litres depending on the pump and battery pack used. The standard model is depth rated to 5,500 metres, with a deeper 7,000 metre option available. Operating temperature is -4 to 35degC. The WTS-LV is available in four different configurations: Standard, Upright, Bore Hole, and Dual Filter Sampler. The high capacity upright WTS-LV model provides three times the battery life of the standard model. The Bore-Hole WTS-LV is designed to fit through a narrow opening such as a 30 cm borehole. The dual filter WTS-LV features two vertical intake 142 mm filter holders to allow simultaneous filtering using two different porosities. | ||
