Among other items the standard set contains a foot valve pump suitable for two pumping tubes, tube guides, ball valves, polyethylene tube and an aluminium tripod. The revolutionary PowerPack PP1, a borehole sampling system for groundwater and leachate, is light enough to be carried by one person. It’s powerful enough to lift water from 50 m depth and is so compact, that it fits onto a back-pack frame. The PowerPack PP1 combines a power source and drive mechanism in one compact unit and is powered by the latest Honda GX-series of ultra-small 4-stroke engines. The redesigned tubing clamp provides significantly improved grip for deeper pumping. The pump weighs 13 kg and includes a detachable backpack. Pumps from approx. 60 depth using standard flow intertial tubing and approx. 40 m using high flow tubing.
