Neuston Katamaran for Microplastic Microplastic Sampling under rough conditions

ABOUT

For sampling at open seas the Neuston Net with a slim aluminium katamaran is recommended. The katamaran is 3 m long which helps to tow it very straight through the water. The fact that the two bodies are very slim and almost completely submerge into the water avoids “jumping” on the waves. It can be operated with greatest stability even under rough conditions. The maximum speed is rated to 4 knots. The net has a relatively large opening of 40 x 70 cm. The net will be equipped with a light weight and very

robust soft net bucket. It is made from canvas material with mesh window. This important feature helps the net to swim smoothly in the upper water layer. TECHNICAL DATA

ABOUT PLANKTON NETS

The smaller Microplastic Net with two lifting bodies is made for operation at inland waters, coastal areas and the open sea under calm conditions. The maximum speed is rated to 3 knots. Only a small boat is needed to operate it. Due to the very small size and the option to dismantle the lifting bodies it can easily be carried from one sampling spot to the other. Nevertheless the opening area of this net is the same as for the katamaran, 40 x 70 cm. The net is prepared to take up a Mechanical Flow Meter. It will be equipped with a light weight and very robust soft net bucket. This is made from canvas material with mesh window. This important feature helps the net to swim smoothly in the upper water layer.

ABOUT

The Microplastic Net ‘Manta’ has been designed for the same conditions as the one above. Open but calm waters, rivers, lakes. The speciality of the Manta design is that it has ‘wings’ mounted to the sides that lift the frame up and care for stability. For transportation or storage these can easily be unscrewed. The net opening is 15 x 30 cm. There is a little pin inside to which a Mechanical Flow Meter can be mounted.The ‘Manta Net’ will be equipped with a light weight and very robust soft net bucket. It is made from canvas material with mesh window. This important feature helps the net to swim smoothly in the upper water layer.
