HCL TANK Sampling, PLASTIC PVC SAMPLERS
For Hydrochloric acid HCL tanks in Pickling plants we offer liquid bottle samplers made of plastic PVC or PP.
In pickling plants we are looking for safer and better ways to take samples of the large acid tanks for pickling, HCL rinsing and phos rinsing.
These plastic tanks are installed with flange connections
Manual sampling can be much safer and Mechatest designed a plastic PVC (or PP) back purge sampler for taking these HCL acid liquid samples, the Back Purge configuration flush the HCL sample back before sampling, suitable to get representative sample in case a bypass (circulation) flow is not present. This bottle sampler is a combination of a 3-way valve, liquid bottle sampler and compressed air back purge system.
The liquid sampler can take spot samples in pickling, HCL rinsing and phos rinsing liquid applications under atmospheric pressure. This typical
“needle” bottle sampler is closed loop and suitable for emission free sampling of toxic, dangerous HCL acids or volatile liquids.
Hydrochloric acid is an important and widely used chemical. The largest end uses for hydrochloric acid are steel pickling, oil well acidizing, food manufacturing, producing calcium chloride, and
ore processing.
HCL sample wiki
Hydrochloric acid (HCL) is the simplest chlorine-based acid system containing water. It is a solution of hydrogen chloride and water, and a variety of other chemical species, including hydronium and chloride ions. HCL, is an aqueous solution of hydrogen chloride gas, mostly produced by the chlorination of organic chemicals; the combination of hydrogen and chlorine.
- Main hazards; highly corrosive and hazardous, strongly acidic
- Viscosity; 1.1 - >2 cP (25 °C)
- Vapor pressure; 0.02 - 0.28 bar (25 °C)
- Density; 1.0 - 1.2 (20) g/cm3
- Explosive limits; n/a
Representative and Safe Sampling of HCL Liquid
The big advantage of the PVC or PP HCL sampling system is the possibility to take safely a Hydrochloric acid (HCL) liquid sample under extreme highly corrosive and strongly acidic processes and fill it into a glass sample bottle, the sample is directly take from a tank, container, pipeline, reactors or mixer. We have improved our HCL 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 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.
