14.09.2015 Easy-clean screw sampler

Van Beek, Drunen, the Netherlands, has developed a screw-type sampler which is particularly suitable for taking representative product samples from containers and hoppers as well as in-line (for example after an outlet or in a discharge pipe). By means of a small screw conveyor, a sample of the material is taken safely from the product stream without disrupting the process. Even materials with poor flow characteristics can be controlled in this way thanks to the use of a screw extractor.

 

Stringent hygiene requirements do not pose a problem. The sampler is easy to dismantle for quick and complete cleaning. It can be used in the dairy, food, pharmaceutical and chemical industries. Samples can be taken from powders, granules, flakes, pellets and slurries. The sample size and frequency can be adjusted. The device is driven by an integral air motor or electric motor (with gear unit) and is easy to insert into the product. Whether bunkers, silos, hoppers or bulk transfer are involved, in most cases little or no adjustments need to be made to the handling infrastructure.  www.van-beek.nl
