Aqualytical Services has developed a submersible field extraction unit that has captured the continuous sampler ideal of being small, stealth, and able to field sample for extended periods of time continuously in a quantitative manner. It is immune to effects of temperature, flow and bio-fouling, and provides ultra-low quantitative detection capabilities. This innovative device is […]
