SamplePro Air-powered Pumps Become World Leader In Portable Groundwater Sampling
Ann Arbor, MI — Sample Pro® bladder pumps from QED Environmental Systems have rapidly become the leading portable groundwater sampling pumps worldwide, used from Alaska to Australia and beyond to collect samples for environmental monitoring.
The key reason for the Sample Pro's growing popularity is that its no- tool, twist-apart design for simple cleaning makes it easy to comply with the latest protocols for accurate groundwater sampling that are being adopted in many countries. Safety and dependability are also very important to its users.
Numerous studies have demonstrated that squeeze-type bladder pumps such as Sample Pro provide consistent, representative samples for the full range of monitoring parameters. Compressed air squeezes the pump bladder to push the water to the surface for collection of samples, but with no air/water contact to alter volatile contaminant levels. Two solid stainless steel Sample Pro models are available: one sized for conventional 2' and 4' monitoring wells, the other miniaturized to fit small-diameter (down to 1') wells and direct push boreholes.
Unlike the bailers that formerly dominated the portable sampling scene, Sample Pro pumps are fully compatible with current best-practice low-flow sampling methods. Powered by compressed air, they eliminate the possibility of shock hazards and motor burnout that accompany electric pump use. QED's MicroPurge® electronic pump controllers and accessories complete the most effective, economical portable pumping system available.
Sample Pro users achieve considerable cost savings in their sampling programs. Low-flow sampling reduces the costs of labor for well purging and disposal of contaminated purge water. Portable sampling dramatically cuts equipment cost compared to dedicating a pump to each well. Quick, easy cleaning of Sample Pro pumps between wells greatly reduces decontamination costs, while the pumps' simplicity and durability almost completely eliminate maintenance and repair expenses.
