DGSI. Durham Geo Slope Indicator

Diffusion Sampler

Sample VOCs without bailing or purging.

Application:

Passive VOC sampling at discrete intervals in groundwater

The Diffusion Sampler comprises the sampler, a stainless steel hanger and a stainless steel weight. The semi-permeable sample chamber filled with deionized water (purchased separately). It is lowered into the well screen and left in place. VOCs in the groundwater diffuse into the sampler until the concentration gradient equilibrates between the water in the formation and the sampler. The sampler is retrieved and contents easily emptied into VOA vials for laboratory analysis. These samplers are currently in use at U.S. D.O.D. sites, EPA-monitored sites, major industrial sites and small petroleum monitoring sites across the U.S. Diffusion sampling technology is licensed by the U.S. Government yielding results that correlate with bailing.
