Final Check List
For Storm Water Setup
•
Intake tubing must slope downward from the sampler to the source—no
loops or dips.
•
Does the pump create a lift? If not:
•
Did you secure the anchor strainer to prevent the flow velocity from
lifting the strainer to the water surface and exposing it to air?
•
Make sure the anchor strainer is submerged in channel.
•
Check all intake and pump tubing connections, especially the Teflon
Connection Kit (Cat. No. 2186) for vacuum leaks at the connection
points.
•
Did you calibrate the sample volume?
•
When the starting conditions occur, will the anchor strainer be
submerged? (i.e. when starting on a level of 0.5 inches).
If this example was for a circular pipe, the anchor strainer would not be
submerged because the Teflon/Stainless Steel anchor strainer is
0.84 inches in diameter.
Note: A shallow depth, 0.406 in. diameter anchor strainer (Cat. No. 2071) is
available for low flow applications.
