Built for Australian Conditions

Environmental professionals working across Western Australia—from urban development sites to remote pastoral leases—require equipment that is not only accurate but rugged enough to withstand harsh conditions. The dipper-T fits the bill with:

• Dual-function capability (Static and drawDown modes) for a wide range of applications including well development, purging, and low-flow sampling.
• An IP65-rated electronic module and an IP68-rated probe, ensuring resilience in wet, dusty, and demanding field environments.
• High tensile steel tape, jacketed with polyethylene, built to resist stretch and breakage—ideal for long-term use on remote sites.

Supporting Field Accuracy and Efficiency

Perth-based environmental consultants often juggle multiple regulatory, client, and technical expectations. The dipper-T’s simplicity and durability make it an asset when accuracy and speed are critical. Features such as:

• A removable electronic module for easy cleaning and serviceability,
• Audible and visual water detection alerts, and
• A tape guide and hanger to protect the tape and ensure accurate measurements at the wellhead,

… all contribute to efficient site visits, minimised downtime, and quality data.

A Reliable Partner for Compliance and Reporting

From meeting Department of Water and Environmental Regulation (DWER) standards to supporting mine closure planning and groundwater impact assessments, the dipper-T helps consultants deliver defensible data. Whether your firm is conducting baseline hydrogeological surveys, contaminant plume tracking, or seasonal recharge studies, this meter supports reliable and replicable measurements.

Long-Term Value

Backed by a 5-year product warranty and 1-year probe warranty, the dipper-T is an investment that pays dividends in reliability. With length options up to 2000 ft (600 m) and custom probe configurations—including options for potable water—this instrument adapts to the evolving needs of environmental professionals.

Why It Matters in WA

Geotech GeoPump Peristaltic Pump

Designed for Sample Integrity

At the heart of the GeoPump’s appeal is its mechanical peristalsis operation—a method that ensures fluids come into contact with tubing only, not the internal pump mechanism. This critical design feature eliminates the need for decontaminating the pump between samples, significantly reducing cross-contamination risk and boosting efficiency in the field.

Whether you’re sampling for VOCs, metals, or general water quality parameters, maintaining sample integrity is vital. The GeoPump’s design helps ensure that what you collect in the field is a true representation of the subsurface environment.

Versatile Power and Field Flexibility

One of the GeoPump’s standout features is its dual-power capability. It operates seamlessly on:

• 12–18V DC power (from a vehicle or field battery)
• 90–260V AC power (for lab or indoor use)

Each unit comes with long power cords—8 feet for AC and 15 feet for DC—giving you reach and flexibility in diverse field setups.

Series I vs. Series II: Choose the Power You Need

GeoPump Series I

• Single pumping station
• Variable speed: 60 to 350 RPM
• Available in AC-only, DC-only, or AC/DC combo
• Piggy-backable for multi-station pumping

GeoPump Series II

• Two independent pumping stations
• Variable speed: First station 30–300 RPM, second 60–600 RPM
• Piggy-backable design
• AC-only, DC-only, or AC/DC combo options

This tiered offering allows field teams to scale their sampling operations based on need, whether you’re managing a single monitoring well or a larger site-wide program.

Built for the Real World

The GeoPump is compact (3.5″ x 8″ x 8″) and designed for portability without compromising on power. It ships with a rugged field case, 5 ft. of tubing, power cord, and a comprehensive manual—everything you need to hit the ground running. The cold rolled steel pump head rotor provides durability in tough environments, and optional accessories like stainless steel tubing weights ensure accurate depth sampling.

Feature Summary at a Glance:

• Suction depth: Up to 29 ft. at sea level
• Operation: Reversible flow for vacuum or pressure pumping
• Speed control: Stepless variable speed dial
• Maintenance: No fluid contact with pump components = easy cleanup
• Warranty: 1 year standard

The Bottom Line

For professionals who need reliable, contamination-free sampling at shallow depths, the Geotech GeoPump Peristaltic Pump is a field-proven solution. Its rugged design, flexible power options, and sample-safe operation make it a go-to choice for groundwater and surface water sampling projects across North America and beyond.
