Raven CORETAKER Sludge Sampler, 3-piece, 24'

Description

The Raven CORETAKER® is a rugged core sampler designed to withstand the rigors of routine usage and float if dropped into a basin. It is uniquely engineered with non-threaded fittings, UV-stable polycarbonate tubes, and UV-stable UHMW black polyethylene fittings. The CORETAKER® shows the operator a cross-section of the clarifier from top to bottom. An automatic check valve allows liquid to enter while being lowered into the tank. The valve automatically shuts when the unit is raised from the tank. The settled sludge blanked is measured and examined for color. The contents can be purged into a bucket for measuring sludge concentration with the Raven Process Centrifuge. The CORETAKER® will become an indispensable part of workflows for: determining primary and secondary clarifier sludge blanket thickness and color; retrieving samples from secondary clarifiers to measure Clarifier Sludge Concentration (CSC); or calculating sludge inventory, detention time, and return sludge flow adjustments.
