Gravity Corer (Customized)

..

Quantity: 1

Supplier: Local manufacturer

Features: Sediment penetration and sampling based on the mass of the corer. Stainless steel core body with a weight of 500 kg; extra weight of 25 kg per piece for a maximum of 8 pieces. Core barrel, 4 m, with the possibility to extend to 6 m.

Core liners: Outer diameter, 65 mm; length, 198 cm; material, PVC. Ten free liners per cruise; 1000 NTD/liner for extra liners.

Multicorer

..

Quantity: 1

Supplier: OKTOPUS GmbH

Model: MC600

Features: After touching down, the corer penetrates the sediment slowly based on weight. Upon lifting, the upper lids of the corers will be closed, and the lower lids will also be closed after the cores are completely lifted from the seafloor. The sampler allows for retrieval of cores with intact sediment-water interface.

Core liner: Outer diameter, 100 mm; length, 60 cm; thickness, 2.5 mm; material, plexiglass. Six liners are available.
