Strainer
The 3/8" ID strainer is available in stainless steel, or PVC. By placing
holes no larger than 3/8" ID along the length of the strainer, the intake of
large particles that can plug the hose or any part of the sampler is
prevented. Since the strainer is also weighted, it keeps the hose inlet at the
desired level in the source liquid.
Pump Tubing
The pump tubing Manning Environmental Inc. supplies for the Model
YB 8 is medical grade silicone rubber.
Discharge Tubing
The 3/8" ID by 5/8" OD discharge tubing is also medical grade silicone rubber.

Bottle Full Sensor
The bottle full sensor is only used on single bottle applications. It is a
cylinder, with a hole in the middle, to allow the discharge tube to pass
through. Constructed of PVC it has two stainless steel rods that protrude
vertically downward from the main body of the sensor. The user positions
the bottle full sensor in the container with the ends of the rods at the highest
point water should be allowed to rise. Once the water level has risen and
contacts the rods, a change in continuity is detected alerting the sampling
unit that the liquid in the container has reached the maximum level allowed by the user.
This ends the sampling cycle
