Description
The HydraSleeve is a passive groundwater grab-sampler used to obtain a representative, real-time, groundwater sample of all compounds from discrete interval, under natural groundwater flow conditions. Standard HydraSleeves use a top spring clip and do not require a top collar. Standard HydraSleeves are available in three different sizes.
The HydraSleeve makes groundwater sampling a simple, three-step operation that is more effective than pumping or bailing and can cut field sampling cost and your carbon footprint by 50 to 80%. The low-cost, disposable HydraSleeve captures a “core” of water from any discrete interval in the screened portion of the well with no change in water level and minimal disturbance to the water column.
The HydraSleeve is sealed except during sample collection, then re-seals itself, assuring that a formation quality sample is recovered.
An optional top weight may be attached to the top of the HydraSleeve to carry it to depth and to compress it at the bottom of the well.
Benefits of using a HydraSleeve:
• Sample for ALL Compounds
• Reduce Sampling Cost 50%-80%
• Eliminate Purging and Purge-Water Disposal (IDW)
• Highly Portable, No Special Tools or Equipment
• Obtain Depth-Specific Concentration
• Can be used for Vertical Profiling
• Can be used to Sample Slow Recharge Wells
• Proven accurate world-wide.
