Envco – Environmental Equipment

Probably the most widely used plankton trap today, it operates on the same principle as bottle samplers but is larger. Its water-clear, strong polycarbonate body minimizes avoidance reactions on the part of zooplankton while enabling you to sample at a specific depth.

Stainless steel handles are mounted to sides and attach the trap to a line. Available in two sizes, although 30 L is recommended in Standard Methods.

Specifications:
• 34-A10: 30 Liter volume, 292 x 292 x 413 mm in size (11½ x 11½ x 16¼”). .
• 34-A20: 12 Liter volume, 216 x 216 x 318 mm in size (8½ x 8½ x 12½”).
