Many companies have learned the hard way that liquid in the sample conditioning system will cause damage to analyzers and/or lead to inaccurate sample analysis. If the sample does not represent the source, then the whole reason for the analyzer is undermined, and repair or decontamination of an analyzer is time consuming and costly. By applying our
Analytically Correct™
designs to your sampling system, you can prevent problems before they begin. We manufacture a wide variety of membrane probes, membrane probe regulators, and filter combinations that offer flexibility regarding installation requirements and can be customized to suit your specific sampling application.
Our patented Genie® Membrane Probe™ and Probe Regulators allow you to insert a Genie® Membrane directly inside the center one-third of the pipeline. We are the only manufacturer that can provide membrane tipped sample probes for insertion inside a pipeline or vessel. This provides the most efficient means for separating entrained liquid at pipeline pressure and temperature conditions. Using insertion probes having a membrane tip is the most practical means for conforming to API 14.1 and GPA 2166 standards when the source gas contains entrained liquids.
The PIP Model 702 is a simple, safe and economical solution to extracting a representative vapor phase sample form a source. Compared to the PIP™ Model 701, the Model 702 is designed for sampling at a specific depth in a pressurized pipeline so each length is customized to fit your application. The "PT" option allows for sampling while simultaneously providing pressure and temperature information at the extraction point. The 702 installs using a 3/4" or larger full opening ball valve in a vertical orientation. Our Pressure Balance™ technique effortlessly lowers the 702 probe into a pipeline without the force of bulky equipment associated with pneumatic or hydraulic mehtods. Once installed, the installation housing can be replaced with a shorter housing to accommodate partial retraction of the probe during pigging operations. The "PT" version includes an RTD Adapter which allows the customer supplied RTD sensor to be inserted through a built-in thermowell.
