UKSGL Fuel Sampler/Thief, Spot/Any Level , Self-Sealing (ALSB & ALSC)
UK Sampling Gauges Ltd, ALSB & ALSC samplers will take truly representative samples of a liquid from any level within a tank or reservoir.
- ALS'B' = With fitment for glass 'B'ottle (bottle not included).
- ALS'C' = With fitment for, and supplied with Metal 'C'anister.
'Winchester' bottles are the most commonly used bottle as they are readily available, low cost, recyclable, and have a standard thread form (R6/31 GF 326B). The sampler can also be made with alternative threads for different bottles, such as the 16 Oz Bottle or a Borosilicate Glass / Schott-Duran bottle (GL-5 thread form), an engineering drawing of your bottle will be required to ensure that it will fit the cage, and to program the desired thread form.
Thanks to their design and method of operating, these samplers take samples that are undiluted by the passage of the sampler through the liquid. They are suited to taking samples for quality, density, RVP, and appearance, for example.
The design ensures that the sampler remains upright during its descent through the liquid, and that the glass bottle is safeguarded against damage in the process.
The sampler stays sealed (and, therefore, empty) until it reaches the required depth, when the operator opens the top valve by a snatch on the cable. The sampler then fills, and a polypropylene ball, inside the sampler, re-seals the opening. The sampler stays sealed while the sampler is retrieved, and so the sample remains undisturbed until the operator removes the sample bottle.
The design of the self-sealing feature minimises the amount of liquid that overflows when the sampler is opened.
Bottles are supplied seperately, Winchester Bottles will come supplied with Black Polypropylene Caps with Polypropylene Cone Seals, for best resistance to most fuel types.
To DIN EN ISO 3170, for manual sampling of petroleum liquids.
