To sample below the length of your sampling tube, add extensions between the sampling tube and slide hammer of the JMC Environmentalist's Sub-Soil Probe Plus.
Please Note: The JMC ESP Plus Master Extension splits into two pieces when adding a Regular Extension. (See diagram at right).
Reliable hole and cross pin connections.
First extension must be a JMC Master Extension.
Additional extensions must be JMC Regular Extensions.
Each extension adds 3 feet of sampling depth.
Number of extensions limited only by soil conditions - usually 15 to 21 feet.
The ESP PLUS pulls a 3 (or 4) foot long by 1.2 inch diameter sample in one plunge. It captures every sample in a plastic liner and can sample to 3 (or 4) feet. Sampling tube is driven by a 12.5 pound drop-hammer (or electric hammer) and retrieved with a foot-operated jack.
This extension lets you sample 3 feet deeper than the length of your sampling tube. (6 feet with a 3 foot tube) If you want to sample deeper than that you will need to purchase one or more JMC ESP Plus Regular Extensions in addition to this extension.
Use our solid tip instead of a cutting tip to plunge to desired depth without filling the sampling tube. Useful for creating small diameter monitoring wells or limiting sample debris.
The JMC Environmental Fate Sampler takes a 6 inch diameter by 2 inch deep sample. Compatible with the JMC Environmentalist Sub-Soil Probe or any hydraulic soil probe, it maximizes recovery of surface applied chemicals on day zero and greatly reduces surface contamination risk to subsequent samples.
