How do I use my Kemmerer bottle?
1. Lower the bottle on a line to the desired depth.
2. All-Angle™ and Tugger™ trip heads lock the seals open before lowering into the water. In the open position, water flows smoothly around the bottom seal and into the cylinder, thereby obtaining an accurate and representative water sample to the microgram (mg/L) level
3. If using a Tugger trip, you need to know when your sampler is at the correct depth for closing. Tie a small float on the line above the sampler at the desired sampling depth. When the float sinks, tug the line to close the bottle.
3. Drop a messenger or tug on the Tugger™ trip head
4. The 2 ears open and top seal falls, closing both ends.
