Sampling systems
Automatic sampling solution for liquid hydrocarbons
- Sampling systems for stand-alone use, or integrated into the flow metering systems
- In-house design, manufacturing, commissioning and testing
- Fully assembled and tested prior to shipping
- Engineered solution to meet any special project specifications
In addition to flow meters and flow metering systems, KROHNE supplies automatic sampling systems for liquid hydrocarbons. These allow the collection of a representative sample from the flowline for external analysis. The automatic sampling systems are compliant with relevant standards, such as ISO 3171, ASTM D 4177, API 8.2 and IP 6.2.
Relying on long-established expertise in the Oil & Gas industry and projects worldwide, automatic sampling systems from KROHNE are designed and built to meet or exceed the levels of accuracy and reliability required by the industry. KROHNE sampling systems are designed to withstand the harshest environmental and process conditions. The design of the standard KROHNE production units is flexible, and can be adapted to achieve any special project specific conditions and client requirements.
Highlights
- Wide range of system configurations and types available, including in-line, fast loop, jet-mixing combined with fast loop and portable shipboard systems
