MicroPurge® basicsTM
MP10 Controller |
|
Expert flow and drawdown control for low-volume purging. |
|
|
|
The MicroPurge® basicsTM MP10 Controller revolutionizes low-flow sampling with advanced logic control of purge flow and well drawdown. Simple up-down arrow keys increase and decrease purge flow, driving a microprocessor to recreate expert techniques for low flow adjustment. Then, optimized settings are identified for recall in the next round of sampling.
The MP10 also offers an easy way to prevent excessive monitoring well drawdown during purging, by linking to the optional MP30 Drawdown/Water Level Meter. |

The lightweight, compact MP10 sets the pace for a new generation of genuine MicroPurge® basics equipment, first in control and power for low flow sampling.
MicroPurge®
basicsTM MP10 Controller Advantages
- Exclusive MicroPurge® control mode uses simple arrow keys to adjust low-flow rates easily and repeatably, using a micro-processor to re-create the flow adjustment strategies used by experienced samplers.
- Connection port allows linking to optional MP30 Drawdown/Water Level Meter, which signals MP10 Controller to enter standby mode if drawdown limit is exceeded.
- Multi-mode digital control includes MicroPurge® Mode, ID Mode for repeat events, and manual control.
- Weatherproof controls are housed in a rugged, compact (27x25x12.5cm) case.
- Full digital display of all setting and status information.

Simple, stable, repeatable flow rate setting...
The MP10 puts you in control of the most advanced low-flow sampling system ever made. You will purge and sample quickly and easily, with precise, steady low-flow pumping rates from one sampling event to the next.
QED’s new basics equipment is also designed to take advantage of the opportunities for downsized equipment, which is lighter and more portable, reduces equipment cost and increases sampling crew productivity. Simplified, sealed electronics are put together in a design that delivers famous QED durability and value.
MicroPurge® basics controllers can be connected to the MP30 Drawdown Meter for optional Automatic Drawdown Control, an industry
first.

Multi-mode digital control
The MP10 gives you three easy-to-use operating modes, to cover every sampling protocol and situation.
- MicroPurge (MP) Mode quickly optimizes control settings to reach the desired pump flow rate. You don’t have to worry about calculating pump cycles or refill and discharge times.
- ID Mode instantly recalls optimized settings previously established for each well, providing precise, consistent performance from event to event.
- User Set (MN) Mode provides manual control of pump operation for extreme depths and other special cases.

Control
buttons..
- Pressing the UP Arrow increases the pump flow in controlled steps.
- The DOWN Arrow Key decreases the flow rate in controlled steps.
- The LEFT/ RIGHT Arrow Key adjusts the Cycles Per Minute (CPM) of your pump.
- The ID Number changes when an UP or DOWN Arrow is pressed. This number can be used in ID Mode to recall the setting for the next sampling round.
- The I/O Key steps through the sequence of On-Start-Off.
- The MODE Key changes modes from default MP (MicroPurge) to ID Mode to MN (User Set) Mode. This key also allows battery check.
- Pressing the PAUSE Key puts the controller in HOLD Mode, stopping flow. A second press delivers push button controlled vial filling. A third press returns the system to normal cycling.
