Piston Sampler
Piston Sampler

The piston sampler differs completely in design and application from the augers described before and is very suitable for sampling less cohesive soil layers (sand) below the groundwater table. The piston sampler is also suitable for sampling sediments with sand content.

Differences

Essential differences between the other augers and the piston sampler are:

  • The piston sampler can only be applied below the water table and in moderately cohesive soils like sand, weak soil layers, etc.
  • The piston sampler can take almost undisturbed samples.
  • 75, 150 and 200 cm, while the other Edelman hand augers have a maximum sample length of about 15 cm.

Connections

This auger is available in several lengths 75 (150 resp 200) cm.
