A.G.O. manufactures plastic porous pots designed for use in self potential (SP) and induced polarization (IP) surveys.

Features:

• Lexan® plastic construction
• Extremely durable (unlike ceramic porous pots)
• See the fluid level (unlike ABS porous pots)
• 4" L x 2 " Dia (nominal)
• Replaceable bottom made from Fireboard™ (or equivalent)

Applications: Disseminated sulfides, gold, silver, base metals, sink holes, groundwater investigation

Tips:

• Clean copper tube with sandpaper before activating with CU Sulphate solution
• A light coat of mud on the bottom gives good response in dry conditions
• Do not freeze porous pot with solution inside
• Empty and clean porous pot before shipping

Bottom Replacement:

• If the bottom becomes damaged, remove and clean insert groove
• Using a file, taper replacement bottom edge
• Apply RTV silicone to groove, then press down on a flat surface until the bottom is located flush with the bottom of the Lexan® plastic housing
• Let stand overnight allowing the RTV to set
• Recommended RTV - Dow #3140RTV
