Model 301D - Above Grade - Cold Climate Sampling Station

Product Description

The Model 301D is an above grade sampling station for cold climates.  The 301D features all brass and stainless steel waterway, stainless-steel spigot for flaming and a stainless-steel throttling valve.  The standard inlet connection is a  ¾” CTS pack joint fitting but any inlet fitting may be custom ordered. The unit features a totally enclosed PVC housing which protects all operating mechanisms from ground contact.  The station features a highly impact-resistant polyethylene enclosure available in two standard colors: blue and green. Station security is provided through a locking hasp, which accepts a standard padlock. Additional station security is provided by a stainless-steel locking handle located on the throttling valve, which also accepts a standard padlock.

The Model 301D features a dry barrel design. Barrel evacuation is achieved through a ¼” copper evacuation tube and needle valve located at the top of the unit. Using a standard hand pump or compressed air, water is pumped or forced out of the barrel to a point below the frost line to achieve freeze protection. The 301D is available in three bury depths: 36”, 48” and 60”.

The 301D is activated by turning the main valve handle counterclockwise ¼ turn. The operator may then throttle the water flow using the spigot-mounted stainless-steel ball valve. When sampling is complete, the operator closes the main valve, opens ¼” evacuation valve, and evacuates the station.
