SHARE
Meter Engineers offers an Advanced PC-based Automated Sampling System that integrates remote PLC control for efficient pipeline sampling. The system's Windows-based interface improves operator interaction with intuitive point-and-click functionality and easy-access pull-down menus. This automation facilitates seamless integration of scheduling inputs, net barrel counts, and user-specific parameters into a cohesive sampling solution. The design supports remote access, allowing for unattended operations, and ensures enhanced sample retention using aluminum cans to preserve integrity under pressure. The system efficiently collects multiple small samples from a pipeline batch, enhancing the accuracy of composite samples. Scheduling parameters are easily managed via spreadsheet interface with options for real-time modification. It compensates for system variations and handles multiple batches without operator intervention. Event logging and automatic label printing streamline operational documentation. Meter Engineers supports the system with a strong focus on precision sampling technology for industrial applications.

Meter Engineers’ automated sampling system is a PC based system with a remote PLC control system. A windows-based design simplifies the operator interface and reduces the time for operators to become proficient with the system. Point and click, pull-down menus, and tab driven functions make choices easy and readily available for the operator. The system features integrations for scheduling information, interface considerations, net barrel counts, end of batch indications, and customer-specific parameters into a completely automated user-friendly sampling solution.

 

The Meter Engineers automated sampling system has been designed to accurately and reliably create composite samples from a pipeline batch stream. Remote access and on-site intelligence allow for reliable unattended operation. Retained sample representation is greatly improved, due to multiple small samples taken per batch. Samples are retained on the rack in seamless aluminum cans. Samples are held under pressure to minimize vapor loss. Scheduling information is entered through a Windows-based spreadsheet interface that allows for easy editing of schedule parameters. New schedule data can be entered directly into a spreadsheet. Batches can be inserted, deleted, or modified with a minimum of effort and operator training.

The composite sample is very accurately obtained from the user-specified parameters and schedule. The system automatically compensates for variations in the piping to the field unit and in the system, line fill to a particular can. Several batches can be sampled before operator intervention is required. A virtually unlimited number of batches can be scheduled. Automatic printing of labels for cans and event logging.
