ISCO Signature Flowmeter

The ISCO Signature Flowmeter is designed to work seamlessly with fixed water samplers, providing precise open-channel flow measurement for rivers, streams, and wastewater channels. Its compact, portable design allows for quick deployment in the field, while ultrasonic and area-velocity sensing ensures accurate, real-time flow data under a wide range of conditions. By integrating directly with portable samplers, it enables flow-paced or event-triggered sampling, ensuring that collected water samples accurately reflect actual flow events. The flowmeter features intuitive software for on-site configuration and data logging, rugged waterproof housing for reliable operation in harsh environments, and flexible power options to support remote or extended deployments. This combination of portability, accuracy, and integration makes it ideal for environmental monitoring, stormwater compliance, and wastewater studies.

Discontinued Samplers - Some models still have parts available!

If you’re maintaining an older ISCO sampler, we’ll do our best to track down the parts you need to keep it running. When replacement parts are no longer available, our team can guide you toward a current model that matches your application—whether you need portability, refrigeration, or advanced flow measurement. Either way, we’ll help you find the right solution to keep your monitoring program on course.

ISCO Avalanche

The ISCO Avalanche was once a go-to refrigerated sampler, known for its compact design and ability to handle multiple bottle configurations in the field. Built for stormwater, wastewater, and industrial monitoring, it offered flexibility but has since been discontinued.


Today, the ISCO BLZZRD now takes its place. Engineered for demanding outdoor conditions, the BLZZRD features superior cooling performance, rugged durability, and simplified maintenance. It’s purpose-built for the same stormwater and compliance applications where the Avalanche excelled—just with the benefit of modern technology and greater reliability.


👉 Still running an Avalanche? We can help you source remaining parts if available. Otherwise, our team will get you set up with a new BLZZRD sampler that fits your program requirements.  Contact us or call (916) 341-9002 to get started.

ISCO Glacier

The ISCO Glacier offered a simple, energy-efficient approach to refrigerated sampling. With its lightweight build and reliable cooling system, it became a favorite for municipalities and field crews that needed dependable refrigeration without a lot of extras. Though it proved to be a workhorse for many years, the Glacier has now been discontinued.


The modern successor is the ISCO BLZZRD—a rugged, field-ready refrigerated sampler designed to thrive where the Glacier left off. With upgraded insulation, advanced cooling, and durable construction, the BLZZRD delivers consistent performance in tough environments while meeting today’s compliance demands.


👉 Need guidance moving from a Glacier to a BLZZRD? We’ll help you find any remaining parts or make the switch to a new sampler that’s ready for years of reliable service.  Contact us or call (916) 341-9002 to get started.

ISCO ​Platinum Vacuum Sampler

The ISCO Platinum Vacuum Sampler stood out with its vacuum-based sample collection method, designed for accuracy in composite sampling. While innovative, vacuum technology has been phased out and is no longer supported in current ISCO models.


Today, the ISCO 5800 Refrigerated Sampler carries the torch with a peristaltic pump design that provides reliable, contamination-resistant sampling in a wide range of applications. It offers improved durability, simpler maintenance, and compliance-ready performance for modern monitoring needs.


👉 If you’re maintaining a Platinum Vacuum Sampler, we’ll do our best to help you find remaining parts. When you’re ready to upgrade, we’ll guide you through transitioning to the ISCO 5800 or a similar model that matches the needs you have now.  Contact us or call (916) 341-9002 to get started.

ISCO Optima Vacuum Sampler

The ISCO Optima Vacuum Sampler was engineered for precision composite sampling, using vacuum technology to deliver accurate flow-proportional samples. Like the Platinum, the Optima has since been discontinued as ISCO transitioned away from vacuum-based designs.


The modern alternative is the ISCO 5800 Refrigerated Sampler, built around a rugged peristaltic pump system. While different in technology, the 5800 is engineered to meet the same monitoring demands—providing reliable sample integrity, improved ease of use, and long-term support from ISCO.


👉 Running an Optima? We can help track down available parts or work with you to set up a smooth transition to the ISCO 5800 or whatever best suits your current needs.  Contact us or call (916) 341-9002 to get support.

ISCO ​4700 Sequential Composite Sampler

The ISCO 4700 was one of the early refrigerated samplers that set the standard for dependable automatic water sampling. Known for its straightforward programming and rugged construction, it served reliably in wastewater plants and field applications for many years. The 4700, however, has been discontinued and is no longer supported.


For a current solution, the ISCO 5800 Refrigerated Sampler or the ISCO 6712 is the natural choice. It builds on ISCO’s legacy with modern electronics, enhanced cooling performance, and a more user-friendly interface—making it easier to meet today’s regulatory and environmental monitoring requirements.
