Russian Peat Sampler, set

For precise and undisturbed sampling of peat and soft sediments

The Royal Eijkelkamp Russian Peat Sampler is designed to collect representative, undisturbed samples from young and mature peat layers, as well as soft, organic sediments. Its intelligent, hand-operated design preserves the natural stratification, moisture content and organic structure of the material. This ensures reliable data for environmental investigations, ecological monitoring, climate analysis and carbon storage studies (C-stock).

  • Undisturbed sampling above and below the groundwater table
  • Ideal for carbon storage, peat formation and climate research
  • Suitable for saturated and unsaturated sediments
  • Preserves moisture, structure and stratigraphy
  • Durable stainless-steel construction for professional fieldwork

Article description

The semi-cylindrical sample chamber with a rotating closure plate and solid cone prevents displacement or damage to roots, fibres and soft sediment. Once the desired depth is reached, the sampler is rotated 180°, filling and sealing the chamber so the sample can be extracted intact. Tapered threaded connections ensure stability and prevent play during deep sampling up to 10 metres.

How it works

  • Manually press the sampler into the soil to the required depth.
  • Rotate the sampler 180° to fill and seal the sample chamber.
  • Extract the sampler; the sample remains fully undisturbed.

Applications

  • Climate and carbon research (C-stock, carbon sequestration)
  • Soil profile description and classification
  • Environmental soil and sediment investigations
  • Paleontological and archaeological research
  • Vegetation, peatland and wetland monitoring

Set contains

  • Russian Peat sampler
  • Edelman auger (for pre-drilling)
  • Push/pull handle
