Product Description
Sediment Silt Sampler (Punjab Type)
This is the most common type of suspended sediment Sampler(Punjab Type), Offered Sediment Silt Sampler is made to take the samples of silt in order to determine several parameters of that form of soil. This sampler is made out of optimum quality metal which provides high bearing strength to this bottle shaped instrument.. The sampler has advantages, of low cost, simplicity in design and operation.
Efficient Sampling MechanismThe Sediment Silt Sampler features a weighted, closed trapping device based on the established Punjab Type design. This ensures efficient capture of soil and silt fractions in aquatic environments. Its physical construction allows for direct deployment and immediate sample retrieval, streamlining the collection process during fieldwork.
Durable Construction with Versatile CompatibilityBuilt from high-quality mild steel or brass, the sampler offers excellent strength and resistance to corrosion. The powder-coated or polished finish enhances its lifespan and functionality. It can be easily attached to standard field ropes or tripods via its robust metal loop, making it a practical choice for professionals engaged in soil and hydrological studies.
FAQs of Sediment Silt Sampler (Punjab Type):
Q: How does the Sediment Silt Sampler (Punjab Type) collect samples?
A: The sampler employs a weighted, closed trapping mechanism to capture sediment or silt from riverbeds. Once deployed with a rope or tripod, the weighted body sinks and encloses the sample in its chamber, preventing loss during retrieval.
Q: What types of materials are used in this samplers construction?
A: This silt sampler is constructed from mild steel or brass, offering moderate hardness and durability. The external finish optionspowder coated or polishedprovide additional protection against environmental wear.
Q: When is this sampler typically used?
A: It is primarily used during field investigations requiring the collection of sediment or silt, such as soil studies and hydrological surveys of rivers and water bodies. Its manual operation makes it ideal for on-site, immediate sampling needs.
Q: Where can this sediment sampler be deployed?
A: The sampler is suitable for use in rivers, streams, and other water bodies where field sampling of soil and silt sediments is required. Its portability allows deployment in remote or hard-to-access locations.
Q: What is the process for operating the sampler?
A: To operate, attach a field rope or tripod to the integrated metal loop, lower the sampler into the water to the sediment layer, and allow its weighted body to fill and trap the sample. Retrieve the sampler and collect the silt or sediment for further analysis.
Q: What benefits does this sampler provide for hydrological studies?
A: This sampler enables accurate, immediate collection of silt samples in diverse environments, supporting comprehensive analysis of sediment characteristics and water quality. Its compatibility with standard equipment and manual convenience make it a reliable solution for research and field testing.
