How it works Sampling valves 1 2 3 CLOSED POSITION The piston is even with the reactor or dryer, leaving no dead space (Picture 1). A perfect seal is formed directly by the piston (in green) against the body of the valve. SAMPLING PROCEDURE Turn the handwheel counter clockwise to lower the piston to its open position. While the product flows down into the sampling bottle, the operator can check the quantity of the product through the sight glass. Turn the handwheel clockwise to bring back the piston in its closed position. A firm final turn of the handwheel gives reliable sealing and no dead space. Equalize the pressure (or vacuum) in chamber by opening the purge valve. Remove the sampling bottle on its quick coupling connection.
Expanding Piston Technology (EPT) Sampling valves Expanding Piston Technology (EPT) Almost all FAMAT Sampling valves are based on our patented EPT system. The EPT allows the PTFE external coat to expand guaranteeing a perfect tightness, from vacuum up to full rating pressure 10 bar (145 psi). The expandable piston inside the valve eliminates also the need of O-rings, avoiding the contamination of the production which can occur when O-rings are damaged. Another big advantage of our design is that in closed position the piston is even with the connection point, leaving no dead space.
