• Number of samples: 13 or 21 of 250mL or 500mL.
• Models: Standard models collect 13 or 21 samples, the Mk8-13 model is half the size of standard models and collects 13 samples of 250mL or 500mL.
• Options: Wet Sample Divider (WSD-10) to split wet samples, Ethernet communication, tilt sensor, and pressure sensor.
