fuel oil liquids samplers

To take under process pressure Fuel Oil liquid samples the conventional way by process valve and open bottle is not only inefficient, but in the case of this dangerous media, humans and the environment are subjected to high safety risks and pollution, the Mechatest Fuel Oil liquid samplers are the safe solution for Fuel Oil liquid sampling under high process pipeline pressure and temperature. 

The Mechatest Fuel Oil liquid sampling systems are based on fix volume sampling principle, a perfect solution for liquid Fuel Oil sampling from tanks, containers, pipeline and reactors, to take representative samples of Fuel Oil liquids in high pressure applications. 

Fuel oil (also known as heavy oil, marine fuel or furnace oil) is a fraction obtained from petroleum distillation, either as a distillate or a residue. In general terms, fuel oil is any liquid fuel that is burned in a furnace or boiler for the generation of heat or used in an engine for the generation of power. Fuel oil is made of long hydrocarbon chains, particularly alkanes, cycloalkanes and aromatics. The term fuel oil is also used in a stricter sense to refer only to the heaviest commercial fuel that can be obtained from crude oil, i.e., heavier than gasoline and naphtha.

Small molecules like those in propane, naphtha, gasoline for cars, and jet fuel have relatively low boiling points, and they are removed at the start of the fractional distillation process. Heavier petroleum products like diesel fuel and lubricating oil are much less volatile and distill out more slowly.

Sampling of Liquid Fuel Oil

The big advantage of the closed loop Fuel Oil liquid sampling system is the possibility to take Fuel Oil liquid liquid sample under high process pressure and fill it into a glass sample bottle, the Fuel Oil sample is directly take from a tank, container, pipeline, reactors or mixer. We have improved our sampling systems for liquids by:

• Creating closed loop systems emission free which provide a safe, controlled environment
• Suitable for high pressure process application
• Adding sample (needle or process) purge options with Nitrogen or other gas
• Fixed volume sampling, which minimizes both waste and costs
• Simplifying designs, making the sampling of liquid and gas more efficient
• Proper discharge of excess liquid or gas prevents unwanted pressure build-up in the system

These modern Fuel Oil solutions simply regard the sampling systems themselves. Our worldwide reputation rests on the combination of excellent systems, and professional services by our team of specialists.
