Vironex uses the Dual Wall Sampling System for discrete depth or continuous core soil samples when in collapsing hole conditions or when cross contamination between aquifers is a concern. The Dual Wall Sampler is comprised of two main components: an exterior steel casing and an inner window sheath or split spoon sampler. The casing and sampler are offered in two sizes:
Standard: The outer casing has a 2-inch outer diameter (OD) and a 1.5-inch inner diameter (ID). The split spoon is 2 feet in length with a 1.375-inch outside diameter (OD) and a 1-inch inner diameter (ID). Each split spoon sampler houses four 1-inch x 6-inch brass or stainless steel liners, or one 1-inch x 2-foot clear acetate liner. The standard dual wall sampling system is used with a Geoprobe 6600, 66DT, 5400, 5410, 54LT, and Vironex's limited access units.
Large: The outer casing has a 3.25-inch outer diameter (OD) and a 2-inch inner diameter (ID). The window sheath sampler is 2 feet in length with a 2-inch outside diameter (OD) and 1.75-inch inner diameter (ID). Each window sheath sampler houses four 1.75-inch x 6-inch brass or stainless steel liners, or one 1.75-inch x 2-foot clear acetate liner. The large dual wall sampling system is used with a Geoprobe 6600 and 66DT units.
