DRIP SAMPLER PRESSURE-PLUS
Order Code: SAM 001 - Drip Sampler with optimized back pressure
This new design takes into account the actual situation of flow into a bunker line which is not a laminar stream, but a turbulent one. Also, as fueling hoses usually have a smaller diameter than shipboard bunker pipes and get elevated up to the ship’s manifold, a decrease in pressure is caused which might lead to a partial vacuum occurring.
The continuous problems with low or even counter-pressure on the traditional drip sampler led Martechnic® to revise the design and improve the outlet pressure.
This development took place in close cooperation with German Lloyd who has approved the design as to perform according to MARPOL legislation requirements. The improved “PRESSURE-PLUS” design provides maximum back pressure and allows continuous fuel sampling, eliminating many problems of the traditional design. The DRIP SAMPLER PRESSURE-PLUS design has become integrated part of DIN 86210 in summer 2013.
