Overview
Customized to fit each application, the KAM CSS™ Complete Sampling System a variety of components for a system fully compliant with API Chapter 8.2. Systems include one of our mixing solutions to ensure homogeneity, an IAS™ Isokinetic Automatic Sampler or E-IAS™ Electric Sampler, a Sampler Controller, a Sample Receiver, a Weight Scale, and a Circulating Sample Mixer. The system is fully compliant with API MPMS Chapter 8.2/ASTM D4177 and ISO 3171.
Based on a downhole pump design, the IAS™ Isokinetic Automatic Sampler features the simplest design in the industry and is the ideal instrument for pipeline sampling during custody transfer, truck and marine unloading, lightering, etc. The IAS sampler’s high degree of accuracy and simplicity facilitate extracting a representative sample, regardless of viscosity, pressure, or flow rate.
Working with the SC™ Sampler Controller, the IAS™ sampler easily extracts a representative sample from your pipeline into an SR™ Sample Receiver. With a CSM™ Circulating Sample Mixer, you may then mix and analyze the sample for custody transfer, API gravity measurements, shrinkage, chemical composition, etc.
Offering ultimate flexibility, KAM sampling systems are sold as individual components, allowing end users to customize to their own needs and individual applications.
