Slurry Samplers

The MIP sampler is a strong robust machine that is based on tried and tested design principles that are proven to give years of reliable service.

A cross cut sampler runs horizontally and typically takes a cut through a slurry stream travelling in an open launder. A rotary sampler takes a sample, typically in the vertical position, and is usually fitted to a vertical, non-pressurised, pipe.

  • As a minimum, the cutter gap in a sampler cutter must be three times as big as the largest particle being sampled.
  • The sample cutter must move through the stream at a constant rate.
  • The maximum velocity of a sample cutter through a stream is 600mm/second.
  • More small cuts are preferable to one larger cut.
  • Sample must not be contaminated by splashing when the sampler is in the stationary position.

.

  • Primary Samplers – Cross-Cut: The MIP Automatic Cross-Cut Sampler is designed to operate as a primary sampler.
  • Rotary Samplers: The MIP Process systems’ Rotary Samplers can be designed as Primary sampler or a continuous (secondary) vezin units.
  • Control Panel: The control panel is a minimum of an IP55 enclosure, and houses all of the necessary timers, switches and overloads.
  • Pressure Pipe Samplers: This in-line sampler can be installed in pipes from 50NB to 1000NB.
  • Fixed Cutter Samplers: These units are installed in launders to provide a continuous sample.

All samplers have been designed to require minimal maintenance and consists of a cylindrical enclosed steel housing with feed, discharge and sample ports. The housing is rubber lined for abrasion resistance, with the outer surfaces painted.
