Coastal Sampler
Sampling has never been easier or more accurate. The Coastal Sampler is optimized for rapid collection of large volume samples, perfect for oceanographic and limnological research.
A Real Sampling Workhorse
Rugged: The Coastal Sampler is designed to face the most challenging weather and environmental conditions, supporting extended field operations on a single battery charge.
Autonomous: This sampler can be easily remotely controlled or programmed to autonomously collect fourteen 500 mL samples from the surface to 100m depth in a variety of configurations.
Versatile: It can be deployed in various environments, from ocean floors to lakes and rivers, with customizable sampling bottles to meet the most diverse customer requirements.
Adaptive Sampling: This system offers fully autonomous pre-scheduled sampling, triggered sampling, or autonomous adaptive sampling (based on data from connected external sensors).
Applications
-
Environmental
Water, the lifeblood of our planet, requires vigilant protection. The challenge lies in the complexity of monitoring diverse aquatic environments - from small waterways to the vastness of the oceans. What's more, extreme environmental conditions and lack of infrastructure make the task impossible or very costly. That's where advanced technology plays a key role, providing innovative, automated and IoT-connected solutions. These tools provide continuous, accurate data that drives timely and effective strategies to study and protect our waters.

Oceanography
Oceanography is the study of the oceans, their physical properties, chemical composition, biological life, and geological makeup. It is a vast and complex field of study, and it is essential to our understanding of the Earth system and its climate. It helps us to understand how the oceans interact with the atmosphere, how they regulate the Earth's temperature, and how they are affected by climate change. To effectively navigate this vast field, researchers rely on advanced instrumentation. This instrumentation allows them to conduct detailed microbiological analysis, precise sampling, and thorough ecosystem mapping. From the shimmering coastal areas to the mysterious oceanic depths, having the right tools is essential to unraveling the many layers of our oceans and ensuring a full understanding of their ever-evolving dynamics.
Why the Coastal Sampler?
‣ Skip the manual labor, get automatic representative samples of water for oceanography and limnology research.
‣ Perform extended sampling campaigns on a single battery charge thanks to an ultra-low-power sleep mode and large internal battery.
‣ Obtain accurate samples with zero cross-contamination issues using a novel sampling mechanism based on vacuum reservoir drive.
‣ Simplify your sampling operations and get time-series samples with pre-programmed and remote triggering options.
‣ Customize bottles with filters and additives specific to your needs.
‣ Collect large samples including suspended solid matter for sedimentology applications.
