Grab Sampling System Installation Tips

Grab Sampling System Installation Tips

Manual sample systems can be installed to draw from any point along a pressurized line where there is enough process or head pressure to drive the sample fluid through the process tubing. They may be used in an analyzer bypass or return line.

If the sample panel requires a return, ensure that the transport line is being returned to a lower pressure location, preferably through a separate tap. If the motive force from a pump is being used, the return sample can be placed upstream of the pump, as the flow through the pump will be sufficient to dilute any sample stream being returned to the process.

Panels should always be installed so that sample vessels (cylinders or bottles) remain oriented vertically. Failure to do so may result in contaminated samples.

CAUTION
When installing a Swagelok grab sampling system, position the vent away from operating personnel. Always open vent/purge valves slowly. Operating personnel must protect themselves from exposure to system fluid.
