Sampling accessories
Sampling accessories support the safe collection, containment, and transport of pressurized process samples from remote locations to a laboratory for analysis. At the center of the range sits the sample cylinder, a seamless stainless steel vessel manufactured to recognized transport and pressure vessel standards for safe handling of gas or liquid samples under pressure. Around the cylinder, a set of supporting accessories completes a working sampling assembly: clamps and handles for safe carrying and handling, bleed valves for controlled venting during sampling or purging, safety cables to retain valves and fittings against accidental separation under pressure, springs for cushioning and vibration protection, and connection kits that bring together the fittings needed to connect a cylinder into a sampling system. Together, these accessories provide a complete, safe, and traceable sampling solution for instrumentation and process applications.

Applications
Available Configurations
Sample Cylinder
Seamless stainless steel vessel (50cc to 2250cc) for containing pressurized gas or liquid samples, available in single-ended or double-ended configurations.
Carrying Handle & Clamps
Hardware fitted to the cylinder body to provide a secure grip and facilitate safe manual transport.
Bleed Valve
Small-bore valve used to vent pressure or purge lines before and after sample collection.
Safety Cable
Retaining lanyard that secures fittings and valves to the cylinder body, preventing components from becoming projectiles if accidentally unscrewed under pressure.
Spring
Mechanical cushion fitted to valve handles or stems to dampen vibration and protect against impact damage.
Connection Kit
A pre-selected set of adaptors, connectors, and quick-connects used to mate the sample cylinder to the process take-off point or laboratory analyzer.
