SAMPLE VALVE CONFIGURATION
To suit most process conditions and designs, we offer three types of sample valves in many configurations with numerous options:
Type | Description | Pros | Cons |
---|---|---|---|
In-line Sample Valve | Fitted directly on the process line or on a bypass. A constant flow through the valve guarantees a directly representative sample. |
|
|
Lateral Sample Valve | The valve is fitted on the side or bottom of a reactor or on the side of a larger pipeline. |
|
|
Top of Reactor Sample System | Acts as a re-circulation loop. |

The first step in selecting a BIAR Sample Valve is to identify where it will be fitted on the process line. After you make that determination, you can outline technical specifications such as sampling temperature/pressure, size, class and product properties. Those specifications normally correspond to the Piping & Instrumentation Diagram (P&ID).
