Direct Push Sampling Program Overview

H&P owns and operates a fleet of direct push soil sampling systems. Our STRATAPROBE^tm direct push sampling probe trucks are one of the most powerful and versatile direct push systems available, reaching depths exceeding 50 feet. H&P also owns a variety of limited access direct push sample equipment as well as portable hand probe equipment.

• No hazardous waste
• Low overall costs
• Efficient
• Quality samples
• Accessible to limited areas
• Low profile
• EPA endorsed

DIRECT PUSH SOIL SAMPLING

The Direct Push Soil Sampling STRATAPROBE^tm obtains both continuous and discrete soil samples using a combination piston/split barrel sampler. The piston prevents the sampler from filling as it is advanced to depth.

• Discrete interval sampling
• Continuous coring
• No cuttings
• Brass, stainless steel, or acetate liners

DIRECT PUSH SAMPLING PROBES FOR GROUNDWATER

Groundwater is collected with a variety of tools including a bailer, downhole pump, or in-situ water sampler. Groundwater gradients are determined by installation of small-diameter piezometers

• Discrete samples by bailer, pump, or in-situ sampler
• Installation of small diameter monitoring wells
• Vertical water gradients
• Low flow, low purge sampling capability

DIRECT PUSH SOIL SAMPLING FOR VAPOR

The soil vapor collection systems uses a steel vapor tip that is shielded during the driving process. Once the desired sampling depth is reached, vapor is sampled via a small diameter tubing which runs down the center of the drive rod.

• Inert, low dead volume sample tube
• Vertical gradients
• Installation of vapor wells
• Installation of semi-permanent probes
• Landfill gas sampling (Tier II)

Strataprobe^tm Direct Push Technical Specifications

H&P's Strataprobe^tm sampling system is a hydraulic and percussion drive-point unit. Applications for Strataprobe^tm include sampling of soil, soil vapor, groundwater and the installation of small diameter water wells, vapor wells and sparge points. The sampling unit is mounted on a four wheel drive, low profile truck. A 12' mast height and compact overall size allows sampling in previously inaccessible locations. Strataprobe^tm is a quicker and more powerful than other direct-push systems, and is more cost effective and cleaner than conventional drilling methods.

• Truck dimensions: 8.0' x 21'
• Mast height: 12'
• 15° angle boring capability
• Sample preparation area
• Decontamination equipment
