Waterra Hydrolift Tubing Actuator
The Hydrolift Tubing Actuator is portable electrical equipment that will vertically oscillate the Waterra Foot Valve-Tubing Combo in your monitoring well. It will give a big efficiency boost to your field sampling program.
This Tubing Actuator is designed for purging, developing and sampling 2 inch (5 cm) diameter monitoring wells up to 200 feet (60 m) deep. In special circumstances, it can lift as much as 300 feet = 90 m. The Hydrolift is optimized to operate with the Standard Flow System up to its maximum effective depth and will operate with the High Flow System up to a depth of 150 feet (45m).
Overview
High Performance Automation
The Hydrolift is a portable, electrically operated device that is used to automate the operation of the Waterra Pump System. The Hydrolift is powered by a 3/4 horsepower (560 watts) electric motor (available in either 110 volt or 220 volt) and generates a 4 inch (10 cm) stroke at up to 140 cycles per minute. The Hydrolift weighs about 35 pounds (16 kg) and requires an electrical power supply of at least 1000 watts.
This actuator is perfect for purging and sampling 2” (5 cm) diameter monitoring wells up to 200 feet (60 m) deep. In special circumstances it can lift up to 300 feet = 90 m. This electrical Tubing Actuator is optimized to operate with the Standard Flow System up to its maximum effective depth and will operate with the High Flow System up to a depth of 150 feet (45 m).
This Tubing Actuator is the ideal choice for the frequent user of the Waterra Pumping System with moderate to extreme pumping requirements (Low, Standard and High Flow). Using the Hydrolift will result in a big boost to your field sampling program.
