Thank you for purchasing a YSI portable automatic sampler. Samplers in the ProSample series are designed to collect
field samples and to provide temporary storage before they are analyzed in a laboratory.
The ProSample portable automatic samplers are designed for use in surface water, stormwater, and wastewater
applications. These samplers can be used in a variety of scenarios, most of which are described in this manual. If
you have a question regarding the use of a sampler in your project, please contact YSI (YSI.com/contact-us) or an
authorized YSI distributor.
There are four samplers in the ProSample series. Content in this user manual applies to all ProSample models unless
otherwise noted. ProSample models include:
• ProSample P: full-size portable sampler
• ProSample P-12: full-size portable sampler with SDI-12 connectivity
• ProSample PM: mini portable sampler
• ProSample PM-12: mini portable sampler with SDI-12 connectivity
Composite sampling can be completed with all ProSample models. In this type of sampling, a single container is used
to collect multiple samples, resulting in a mixture of all samples collected.
Discrete sampling can be completed with the ProSample P and ProSample P-12. In this type of sampling, samples are
placed in different bottles. There are several bottle configurations available for the purpose of discrete sampling.
All ProSample models have the following features:
• Robust PE, double-walled, insulated housing for temperature control.
• Easy tube replacement for minimal downtime.
• Spring-loaded roller bearings in the peristaltic pump providing long tubing life.
• Highly accurate sample volume using two capacitive sensors in the peristaltic pump for volume control.
• Simple programming and calibration.
• Long battery life.
• Non-volatile data memory for up to 5 years, so you never have to worry about losing your data if power is lost.

LED Functionality
There is an LED on the front of each ProSample that functions as follows:
• OFF: Device power is off, battery is dead, or no program is running
• Solid Green: Program is running and there are no errors
• Blinking Green: Program is running, but the battery is getting low
• Solid Red: An error has occurred. The display should be viewed for more information regarding the cause
of the error
• Blinking Red: Battery capacity is critically low
Included with each ProSample:
• *5 meter suction hose with screw connection and sinker weight
• 10L PE container (only the ProSample PM and the ProSample PM-12)
• Battery
• USB cable
• Two peristaltic pump tubes
• Printed copy of the ProSample Getting Started Guide
*Up to a 30 meter suction hose can be used with any ProSample model.
Please note the following items are not included with any ProSample. These items must be purchased separately.
• Bottle sets and distributor arms for the ProSample P and ProSample P-12
• SDI-12 cable for the ProSample P-12 and ProSample PM-12
• Flow signal cable
• Battery charger
• Other accessories such as strainers
Please see the Replacement Parts and Accessories section on page 60 for more details and item numbers, including

Charging the Battery
Initial Charge
The battery must be completely charged prior to first use. This should take approximately 14 to 16 hours.
NOTICE: A total discharge of the battery can result in damage to the battery. A protective mechanism built-in
which automatically switches off the device when the voltage is too low (9V or less). However, when
storing the battery long-term, regularly connect the battery to the charger to top off the charge, as this
will ensure the battery does not completely discharge.
NOTE: Please include the battery if the ProSample is returned to YSI for service — see the Technical Support
section on page 66 and the Service Information section on page 66.
To charge, connect a ProSample battery charger to the battery. Once the red light on the power supply turns to green,
the battery is fully charged and can be installed in the ProSample unit.
NOTE: There are three different battery chargers available for the ProSample. Please see the Replacement Parts
and Accessories section on page 60 for a list of available chargers.
