Large Volume Water Transfer System (LVP)
McLane Large Volume Water Transfer
Systems are designed to collect particulate matter, in-situ, in support
of oceanographic research projects and environmental monitoring programs.
The WTS 6-1-142LV series of oceanographic pumps draw ambient water through
filters at flow rates from 2 liters per minute to 50 liters per minute and
can pump more than 40 tons of seawater during a single cast. The LV pumps
are designed for use from a ship's hydro-wire and employ advance control
algorithms to dynamically optimize flow rates as material accumulates on
a filter and to deliver precisely measured sample volumes. McLane's WTS-LVs
are the finest, most accurate, oceanographic pumps in the world today.
The WTS-EC, is configured to draw ambient water through 47 mm pre-filters
followed by in-line extraction columns to allow the collection of radio-nucleides,
organics, and trace metals from seawater. The pre-filters are identical
to those used in the WTS-47FH and the extraction columns can be bypassed,
permitting use as a WTS-FH.
