FIELD: physics.

SUBSTANCE: apparatus for stationary collection of water in the ocean bottom layer has a ballast weight on which a water collection chamber is mounted, a pipe made in form of a reinforced hose and connected with the water collection chamber, a buoy to which the top end of the pipe is attached through a sleeve nut, floats and a flexible hose which freely passes through the opening in the float and connected to the buoy. An annular magnet is mounted in the float, and inside the flexible hose there is a cylindrical magnet which is tightly fit to the walls of the house, where the axial magnetic field of the cylindrical magnet is opposite the field of the annular magnet.

EFFECT: invention enables to regularly monitor physical and chemical properties of water at any depth at stationary points with constancy of all collection conditions with low expenses.
