I-CHEM™ Introduces Innovative Storm Water Sampler

Storm Water Sampling Made Convenient and Affordable

Rochester, NY - The new I-CHEM™ Storm Water Sampler and Mounting Kit is a convenient, easy-to-install device which meets EPA grab sampling requirements, and eliminates the need to mobilize a field crew immediately to collect storm water samples. The first disposable storm water sampler available on the market, the I-CHEM Storm Water Sampler eliminates the need for decontamination after every use, as in traditional automated sampling equipment.

The Storm Water Sampler is a simple, plastic, disposable device that collects a full liter of first flush storm water into a NALGENE® sample bottle. A floating ball valve automatically closes the bottle when it is full, preventing sample dilution.

When used with the mounting kit, the sampler can be securely positioned into a ditch, stream or storm grate outfall. The mounting device can easily be positioned once and left in place, then loaded with a new disposable sampler each quarter. Researchers can conveniently and economically collect all of their samples in a single rain event, since the I-CHEM Storm Water Sampler and Mounting Kit are affordable enough to dedicate one to every outfall event.
