sampling probe / insertion / for industrial applications

Compartmentalized tip probes (shown below) fill the chambers by gravity. The interior cylinder rotates, closing the ports in the first chamber and allowing material to flow by gravity into the second chamber. During retraction or while the probe is still in the load, material flows to the bottom of the second chamber and is pneumatically drawn through a third chamber for delivery to a collection cabinet in the probe station.

A core type sample probes extract a vertical cylinder of material from the vessel without pulling dust or fines from the surrounding mass. The sample is then pneumatically transported to the collection point. The sample probe is mounted on the swivel stand and boom which are hydraulically powdered in three axes.

Probes for rail cars are available as well as mega probes which offer longer extendable booms, long-range sample delivery units and excess return systems.
