Fuel Samples are used to obtain a clear indication of the operating status of your machinery. One of the most important aspects of any fuel analysis program is the sampling methods and equipment used. Often these are weak links that quickly compromise the program.

Obtaining a representative fuel sample is one of the most important factors of a scheduled analysis program. Representative, uncontaminated fuel samples are required for both regulatory and commercial purposes.

A high standard fuel sample will contain an accurate representation of the contaminants, additives, oxidation, particulates, and wear conditions of plant and equipment. If a sample does not represent the true condition of the fuel at the time of sampling, the reliability of both the test result and its interpretation is affected.

The Benefits of Drip Sampling Flanges:

  • Lightweight and very easy to install – obtaining a representative sample quickly and easily.
  • Other Drip Sampling Flanges sizes are available because this product is custom-made for our client’s needs.
  • More economical and equal performance than the automatic drip samplers.
