Grab Sample Systems

 

Configurable, Local, and Reliable Grab Sampling Solutions 

Grab sampling involves extracting a sample from a process, in real time, and bringing it back to a lab to either confirm or diagnose an issue with the actual processing unit. Poor sampling system design can lead to unrepresentative samples, unsafe conditions, and unnecessary maintenance. As a leading global provider of high-quality fluid system products and services we are uniquely capable of providing you with safe and easy to operate grab sampling solutions. 

Swagelok has developed a wide range of grab sampling panels to address your needs for:

Grab Sample Module

The Swagelok grab sample module (GSM) is a sampling panel that uses sealed, metal, pressure-containing cylinders to capture either liquid or gas. 

  • The continuous flow configurations allow the sample transport lines to continue flowing while sampling
  • The GSM left in the bypass or sample position indefinitely keeps transport lines fresh and ready for sample capture
  • A grab sampling cylinder (GSC) is docked, and process fluid is continuously circulated within to maintain process conditions

Grab Sample Liquid Systems

The Swagelok grab sample liquid (GSL) is a liquid-only sampling system for drawing fluid in a non-pressure containing bottle with a self-sealing septum cap.

  • The GSL can use lower-cost glass or polyethylene laboratory bottles to draw and store samples
  • Using bottles can provide immediate feedback on the visual quality of the sample stream
  • Samples can be drawn and transported without the risk of spillage or evaporation
