PART 2 - MATERIALS
2.01 Manufacturers
Samplers shall be Teledyne ISCO Model 6712 FR or equivalent.
2.02 Automatic Samplers
A. Sampler shall be of the enclosed, refrigerated type containing a pump, controller,
polyethylene container, and associated tubing and wiring. A corrosion-resistant fiberglass
body and temperature control system shall allow the refrigerated sampler to be used
outdoors without an enclosure in ambient temperatures from -20°F to 120°F. Provide
calibrated control to select a storage temperature of 32°F to 46°F. Provide forced air
condensing coil and front ventilation.
B. The refrigerated sampler shall be equally suited for sequential and composite sampling
applications. In sequential applications, the sampler shall be capable of collecting discrete
samples in 24-, 8-, or 2-sample bottles. The 8- or 24-bottle versions shall hold the bottles in
IWSD 01/2011 13448-2 Automatic Liquid Composite Samplers
AECOM REBID
a nylon-coated slide-in rack. For composite applications, the sampler shall be capable of
being converted to use a single 2-1/2-gallon glass or polyethylene container. Glass sample
bottles shall have Teflon-lined screw caps. Plastic sample bottles shall have polyethylene-
lined screw caps.
C. The refrigerator shall include electronic sensing devices for measuring ambient air
temperature, evaporator plate temperature, and interior air temperature. Built-in
temperature control circuitry shall utilize these sensors to control the operation of the
compressor and built-in heaters. The built-in heaters shall prevent the sample from freezing
if the ambient air temperature drops below freezing. The unit shall be self-defrosting and
shall use a forced-air condensing coil with filtered frontal ventilation. Provide a
compressor with a minimum rating of 1/6 hp. The refrigerator shall have a five-minute
(maximum) recovery time to return to 39°F after the door has been opened for one minute
with the unit operating at 39°F (4°C).
D. Construct the exterior and base of the refrigerator of FRP with a UV-resistant gel coat. The
interior of the refrigerator shall be food grade ABS plastic. Provide copper refrigeration
lines protected with polyester tubing and phenolic resin. Coat the condenser coil with UV-
resistant polyurethane. The refrigerator evaporator plate shall be aluminum and coated with
a food grade epoxy. The refrigerator shall include 1 1/2 inches of rigid foamed-in-place
insulation on the sides. The top insulation shall consist of 3 inches of rigid insulation.
Insulation shall not sustain bacterial growth or retain odors. The refrigerator shall have a
hinged reinforced fiberglass controller cover, which is capable of being locked.
E. Locate the temperature control knob under the controller cover. The refrigerator's door
shall also have hasps capable of accepting a padlock. Provide a magnetic gasket to seal the
refrigerator door. The refrigerator power supply and solid-state thermostat shall be
contained in a sealed, NEMA 4, aluminum or stainless steel enclosure inside the
refrigerator base. All other exposed metal components shall be anodized aluminum,
stainless steel, or galvanized steel.
F. For multiple bottle sampling, the sample distribution system shall use a mechanism to lock
the distributor arm above each bottle position. The distributor arm shall be made of
polypropylene. The distribution drive assembly shall be included in a sealed NEMA 4X
controller to prevent exposure of the electromechanical components.
G. Samples shall be collected using a peristaltic pump. The body of the peristaltic pump shall
be made of plastic. The pump shall be capable of producing 26 feet of lift. A resettable
indicator shall count and indicate the pump revolutions. Before and after each sample is
collected, the pump shall air purge the suction line. Prepurges and postpurges shall be
automatically controlled, and no precalibration adjustments shall be required. The sample
stream shall not pass through any valves or metering chambers or through any distribution
tubing unless under pumped flow.
H. The sampler shall utilize a nonwetted, nonconductive detector to sense the presence of the
liquid at the inlet to the pump. The sensor shall not be dependent on or affected by any
compositional, chemical, or physical property of the liquid, including high or low
conductivity of the sample. The liquid detector shall require no routine maintenance or
cleaning to allow the detector or sampler to operate. The liquid detector shall eliminate
entering the head height in programming and shall minimize the effects of changing head,
intermittent flow in the suction line, or variable battery conditions on sample volume. Once
IWSD 01/2011 13448-3 Automatic Liquid Composite Samplers
AECOM REBID
the liquid has been detected at the pump inlet, the sampler shall deliver repeatable and
accurate sample volumes regardless of battery condition by counting the revolutions of the
peristaltic pump. The sampler shall deliver repeatable sample volumes typically within ±10
mL to prevent any single sample from biasing the collected sample.
2.03 Programmable Sampling System
A. The sampling program shall be established using a sealed keypad and a liquid crystal
display. The display shall continuously communicate the sampler's status. The sampler
shall have software capable of storing up to three sampling routines identified by number.
The sampler shall contain an internal battery, which provides the sampler with continuous
memory. The battery shall have a minimum life of five years and shall maintain the
sampler's program settings and any stored programs when the sampler is turned off or in
the event of a power interruption.
B. The system shall allow the user to program the sampler to collect either sequential or
composite samples at user-definable time intervals (time pacing) or at equal flow volume
intervals based on flow pulse inputs from an external flowmeter (flow pacing). The flow
intervals shall be selectable from 1 to 9,999 flow pulses. The sampler shall use an internal
real-time clock to provide both time and date information. It shall also offer two types of
time pacing: uniform and nonuniform. Uniform time paced samples shall be collected at
regular time intervals from 1 minute to 99 hours and 59 minutes. Nonuniform time
intervals from 1 to 999 minutes between samples or, based on real-time settings, shall be
capable of being programmed. Nonuniform time shall be common to both sequential and
composite sampling routines. A delay to first sample shall be programmable in minutes
from 0 to 9,999 or by the real-time clock. The sampler shall have the ability to be
programmed for up to 24 real-time sampling stop/resume times to allow unattended
sampling of shift related discharges. A software program lock shall be provided to prevent
unauthorized tampering or accidental changing of the sampler control settings.
C. The sampler program shall allow the user to select from three types of multiplexing:
samples per bottle, bottles per sample, and multiple bottle compositing (a combination of
samples per bottle and bottles per sample). Multiple bottle compositing shall allow the user
to place many samples in a single bottle while simultaneously creating a duplicate bottle or
set of bottles. The sampler shall switch bottles after a period of time has elapsed or a
predetermined number of samples have been collected. The controller shall be
programmable for up to three sample collection retries if liquid is not detected due to
suction line plugging or absence of liquid. Up to three suction line rinse cycles shall be
programmable to precondition the suction line before each sample to prevent
contamination from the previous sample.
2.04 Flow Signal
Samplers shall be capable of collecting samples proportional to flow. Flow signal shall be a 4- to
20-mA d-c current signal from an external source. Provide interface device, if necessary, for each
sampler to convert this signal to the signal used by the sampler. Interface enclosure shall be
NEMA 4. Power source for the interface device shall be the associated sampler.
2.05 Power Supply
Sixty hertz, 120-volt ac.

2.06 Sample Containers
Provide the sampler with the following:
Two(2) 2.0-gallon polyethylene bottles.
2.07 Suction Lines and Strainers
I. The materials in contact with the flow steam shall be medical grade silicone rubber, vinyl
or Teflon, and stainless steel. The suction line shall be made of the following:
3/8-inch inside diameter vinyl
Provide a weighted polypropylene strainer with a polypropylene debris deflector to prevent
clogging.
PART 3 - EXECUTION
3.01 Installation
Install in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
3.02 Field Testing
Operate each sampler for 30 consecutive days, during which time no repairs or adjustments shall
be required. Assure that each sampler responds to its 4- to 20-mA flow proportional signal.
