We offer our Sampling Ball Valve with CF-8M SS body (AISI 316) fluorothermoplastic-lined, or in an unlined version using the same body material. This volume-specific sampler draws a pre-determined volume – including minimal sample sizes - from horizontal and vertical piping systems. The collected sample and the main line are not connected after sampling, eliminating any system pressure being transferred, which also allows vacuum sampling. Full-port construction and close attachment of the sampling unit eliminate any dead space, which allows easy cleaning and purging of the piping system. Thanks to the large sample opening very high as well as very low viscosity samples can be taken.
Equipped with a customized block flange this sampling unit can be universally mounted on pipes or vessels for sampling in challenging conditions.
This easy to operate Inline Sampling Ball Valve is suitable for clear, liquid media, within operating conditions of -40°C (-40°F) up to +200°C (+392°F) and pressures up to 16bar (232psi).
Optional equipment to satisfy specific customer requirements include heating jackets, butt-weld ends or clamp connections are avaiable. In order to create hermetically sealed sampling, we also offer safety cabinets, needle adapters and activated carbon filters.
