IV. Installing the Water Sampler
a. The sampler should be placed upright (it will not work if placed on its back or
side).
b. Open the sampler and remove the battery charger from the unit. Store the
charger for later use.
c. To secure the sample bottle:
1. Screw the bottle cap/float switch onto the sample bottle
2. Place the bottle into the sampler enclosure
3. Insert the end of the peristaltic pump’s hose in the hole at the top of the
bottle cap
4. Plug the float switch lead into the jack on the front of the control panel
d.
The sampling unit can be secured from vandalism and strong winds by one of
the following methods:
1. Mount unit on post and lock closed
2. Lock closed and chain handles to a solid structure (such as a tree, post, or
building)
3. Enclose and lock unit in a steel electrical box
e. Avoid drilling holes in the enclosure if possible. If holes must be drilled in the
enclosure avoid drilling through the control panel enclosure. Any holes drilled
through the enclosure must be sealed with some type of silicone glue to
prevent water from entering the case and causing equipment failure.
f. The unit is water resistant, not water proof. The unit must be located well
above the expected water level to continue to provide reliable service.
