24. Model SAL Sampler Evolved from the ISOLOK® SAB in 2001
Isolating ball valve (ISOVALVE®) allows sampler to be removed from process stream without additional isolation valves or process shut down

25. Base SAL

26. SAL with Park Position

27. SAL with Park Position

28. Why Park Position?
Park position added in 2002 to keep abusive slurries from building up in the ISOVALVE® cavity
Increases plunger and ball seat life

44. Controls

45. Controls EP-3 was the used for many years and was modular in design
EP-3 incorporated time delay relays and solenoids to actuate the sampler
Over the years, more than 32 controller part numbers and configurations were commonly used
In 2004 we decided to obsolete the EP-3 family of controllers and developed the next generation…the EP-4
The EP-4 consolidates the 32 control offerings down to six

46. EP-4 Controller Standard features Continuous composite
Batch (cycle counter)
Batch load
Two batch settings
Flow proportional
Pulse or 4-20 mA
Remote start/stop
Auto and manual operation (HOA switch)
Start delay

47. EP-4 Controller Options
Air Eject/Purge
Park Position
CSA and CE Approval
Proximity sensor integration
Remote pneumatics

48. EP-4 Screen Views

49. Control Options (non-ep4)
Fully pneumatic controls (typically for explosive environments)
Nema 7/9 Enclosure
Proximity sensor integration
CE Approval

50. Summary

51. Benefits of Using ISOLOK® Automatic Samplers
Labor Savings
Safety
Operator exposure
Uniformity and Consistency of sample
Fixed volume at fixed time intervals
Elimination of human error
Elimination of material Loss, spillage, sample contamination, etc.
Simplicity – Quick changeover of wear parts

52. Summary
ISOLOK ® Samplers are well suited for high process pressure and temperature
Isolate operator from process hazards
Take fixed sample volume at consistent time intervals (using automatic control) to ensure sample is representative
