SAMPLER MODELS Industrial Sanitary Dairy Models SAA, SAB, SAG, SAL Models MSC, MSD, MSE Dairy Models M4KSA, MSA
Industrial Samplers
Industrial Samplers Process temperature – -40°F to 550°F (-40°C to 288°C) Slurry Solids – up to 3/8 in. (9 mm) outside diameter Dependent on model Viscosity up to 1,000 cP Available seals include epdm, viton®, filled Teflon®, Kalrez®, Buna-N, Halar®, Urethane, etc., etc., etc. Standard material of construction is 316 ss Optional materials: Hastelloy®, Titanium, AL6XN®, Carpenter-20, Ferralium, Monel, Kynar®, Zirconium, Nickel, Incoloy®, Inconel®, 17-4 PH, 400 series stainless, virtually any machinable material
Industrial Samplers SAA SAB SAG 3 or 8 cc volume per cycle Line pressures up to 200 psi (14 bar) SAB 10 or 25 cc volume per cycle Line pressures up to 300 psi (21 bar) SAG 120 or 200 cc volume per cycle
Industrial Samplers SAL-A SAL-B Derived from the SAA sampler Integrated isolation ball valve (ISOVALVE® ) 3 or 8 cc volume per cycle Line pressures up to 200 psi (14 bar) SAL-B Derived from the SAB Sampler 8 or 25 cc volume per cycle Line pressures up to 300 psi (21 bar)

Model SAL Sampler Evolved from the ISOLOK® SAB in 2001 Isolating ball valve (ISOVALVE®) allows sampler to be removed from process stream without additional isolation valves or process shut down
Base SAL
SAL with Park Position
SAL with Park Position
Why Park Position? Park position added in 2002 to keep abusive slurries from building up in the ISOVALVE® cavity Increases plunger and ball seat life
Sanitary Samplers
Sanitary Samplers Process temperature – -40°F to 550°F (-40°C to 288°C) Slurry Solids – up to 1/4 in. (6 mm) outside diameter Dependent on model Viscosity up to 150,000 cP Available seals include epdm, viton®, Kalrez®, Buna-N Standard material of construction is 316 ss Optional materials: Hastelloy®, Titanium, AL6XN®, Kynar®, 17-4 PH
Sanitary Samplers MSC MSD 14 cc volume per cycle Line pressures up to 200 psi (14 bar) Low/Med Viscosity - discharge by gravity Viscosity up to 1,000 cP MSD 10 cc volume per cycle Line pressures of 30-40 PSI (2-3 bar) 14 cc volume per cycle Line pressures of 40-200 PSI (3-14 bar) High Viscosity – Contracting annulus Viscosity up to 150,000
Sanitary Samplers MSE 10 cc volume per cycle line pressures < 30 PSI (2 bar) High Viscosity – Contracting annulus

Dairy Samplers
Dairy Samplers M4KSA MSA 3 cc volume per cycle primarily used for milk sampling but can be used for other free-flowing low viscosity fluids MSA 0.5 cc for on-truck and dairy farm truck loading approved for use in Canada – not yet approved in USA Both models are third party verified for the 3-A Sanitary Standards symbol administrative council and conform to section 59-00 of the 3-A code

Controls
Controls EP-3 was the used for many years and was modular in design EP-3 incorporated time delay relays and solenoids to actuate the sampler Over the years, more than 32 controller part numbers and configurations were commonly used In 2004 we decided to obsolete the EP-3 family of controllers and developed the next generation…the EP-4 The EP-4 consolidates the 32 control offerings down to six
EP-4 Controller Standard features Continuous composite Batch (cycle counter) Batch load Two batch settings Flow proportional Pulse or 4-20 mA Remote start/stop Auto and manual operation (HOA switch) Start delay
EP-4 Controller Options Air Eject/Purge Park Position CSA and CE Approval Proximity sensor integration Remote pneumatics
EP-4 Screen Views
Control Options (non-ep4) Fully pneumatic controls (typically for explosive environments) Nema 7/9 Enclosure Proximity sensor integration CE Approval Nema 7/9 Enclosure
Summary
Benefits of Using ISOLOK® Automatic Samplers Labor Savings Safety Operator exposure Uniformity and Consistency of sample Fixed volume at fixed time intervals Elimination of human error Elimination of material Loss, spillage, sample contamination, etc. Simplicity – Quick changeover of wear parts
Summary ISOLOK ® Samplers are well suited for high process pressure and temperature Isolate operator from process hazards Take fixed sample volume at consistent time intervals (using automatic control) to ensure sample is representative Modular design allows for a wide variety of configurations Materials of construction Seal options
