SimulProbe®Technologies,Inc. <br /> Maxi SimulProbe®Soil/Groundwater Mode <br /> STANDARD OPERATING <br /> PROCEDURES <br /> FOR IN-SITU SAMPLING WITH THE <br /> MAXI SimulProbe® <br /> (Collecting Soil and Ground Water Simultaneously) <br /> 1.0 INTRODUCTION <br /> The SimulProbe@ is an in-situ sampling device which allows the <br /> simultaneous collection of either in-situ soil gas with soil core or in-situ <br /> liquid with soil core. The purpose of the tool is to collect soil samples <br /> simultaneously with liquid or gas which are directly correlative and can be <br /> economically collected in one sampling event. The directly correlative <br /> nature of the fluids and solids provides more accurate interpretations <br /> about: <br /> (1) The relationship between contaminant distribution and stratigraphic <br /> characteristics. <br /> (2) The opportunity to compare contaminant concentration in gas and liquid <br /> with that found in directly correlative soil core. <br /> 2.0 DESCRIPTION <br /> The SimulProbe® (see schematic) is shaped much like a split spoon <br /> sampler, but has some distinct differences. A listing of the tool's important <br /> dimensions are presented below: <br /> (1) 3.38 inches outside diameter (OD) along the length of the entire tool; <br /> excluding the cutting edge of the Drive Shoe. <br /> (2) The inside diameter (ID) of the core barrel is 2.5 inches. <br /> (3) The core barrel length is 18 inches. <br /> (4) The Drive Shoe length is 3 inches. <br /> (5) The 2 liter stainless steel water canister is a 19 inch long modular unit to <br /> the base unit. <br /> 2 <br />
