Ground water sampling demands the highest standards in plastic tubing quality and purity. The tubing has high surface area that contacts the sample, so the potential for sample contamination is significant. Accurate and consistent tubing dimensions are critical to creating strong, leak tight connections, especially when used with dedicated sampling pumps over the long term. Hardware store tubing is not designed, packaged or handled to meet the quality needs of groundwater sampling. QED has lead with innovations in ground water sampling tubing purity, features and quality to protect your samples' integrity while making system installation and operation easier and more economical.
Key Specifications
- High purity standards to protect sample quality
- QED pioneered twin-bonded tubing, perfected for easy peel apart and true outside diameter for leak tight connections.
- Custom cutting and assembly - systems are pre-assembled, leak-tested, and poly-bagged for easier installation with no leftover tubing and no need to measure in the field.
- Highest quality materials - 100% virgin grade, extruded in USA with US manufactured resins, with no regrind, printing, additives, or mold release agents.
- True continuous lengths - no unexpected joints or couplings.
Benefits
- Each lot of tubing is soak tested with samples analyzed by a NELAP certified independent laboratory and is contamination free to the laboratory’s reporting limits for volatile organic (VOC) and semi-volatile organic (SVOC) compounds.
