Kajak Sediment Sampler 

 

 

Brief description:

 

 
The KC Kajak Sediment Core sampler is based on the Kajak 
design and can be used as a line operated unit, as well as a 
hand operated sampler with poles (to be ordered separately). 
For a depth of 4 m, you will require 13.302; for 6 m, you must 
add an extension pole 13.303.  
   
This model is a quick-change model and speeds up the changing 
of corer tubes; very useful if you need many samples. The 
sampler can also be equipped with AISI 316 stainless steel corer 
tubes.  
 
The upper part of the sampler can be exchanged with a shaft to 
sample by manual insertion of the tube. The shafts are made of 
AISI 316 stainless steel tubes, each 2,0 m. They can be 
assembled to a maximum length of 6,0 m. 
 
The system supports use of inner liners, carvers and orange peel 
for higher performance. 

 

 

An adapter (optional) can be added for supporting 80 mm 
sample tubes. 

 

    

Do not use alcohol for cleaning acrylic 
parts 

 

 
KC Denmark A/S is not, and cannot be held, responsible for any 
damage(s) made to equipment or to operators who ignore safety 
precautions or because of misuse or wrong operation.
