Horizontal Beta Sampler

Intended for shallow or deep waters, these bottles are called “horizontal” because they descend, parallel to the bottom.

They are pulled sideways just before closing by the operator. This ensures a representative water sample for that specific depth.

They are ideal for sampling at the thermocline, at other stratification levels, or just above the bottom sediments.

These popular and versatile bottles come in your choice of transparent acrylic or opaque PVC. PVC is more durable and less costly, but the acrylic allows you to view the bottle contents immediately. Designed for trace metal sampling. Also may be used for organic sampling to concentrations of mg/L.

When running metal, organic, or any other chemical analyses, it is best to run a blank on the sampler before use.
