Representative Sampling for Falling and Free-Flowing Material Streams
The Go-Belt® Linear Cross-Stream Sampler is engineered for suitable applications where material is presented as a falling or free-flowing stream at a transfer or discharge point. The sampler traverses the material stream to obtain representative sample increments and is configured according to the requirements of the individual sampling application.
Designed and manufactured by T.K.O Engineering, the Go-Belt® Linear Cross-Stream Sampler extends the Go-Belt® product range to applications where the material stream is presented at a suitable transfer or discharge location rather than carried through the sampling point on a conveyor belt.
Each application is assessed individually, taking into account the material stream, transfer arrangement, material characteristics, required sampling duty and downstream sample-handling requirements.
• Linear cross-stream sampling configuration
• Engineered for suitable falling or free-flowing material streams
• Application-specific sampler configuration
• Integration with downstream sample-handling equipment
• T.K.O Engineering OEM support
The Go-Belt® Linear Cross-Stream Sampler is considered for suitable sampling duties where material can be intercepted at an appropriate transfer or discharge location.
• Conveyor transfer points
• Suitable chute discharge locations
• Suitable falling material streams
• Process transfer locations where the sampling duty permits cross-stream sampling
Final sampler selection and configuration are subject to review of the actual process and material-stream conditions.
To assess a Linear Cross-Stream Sampler application, T.K.O Engineering reviews the process and installation conditions before determining the appropriate sampler configuration.
• Material being sampled
• Material-stream arrangement
• Transfer or discharge configuration
• Material flow rate
• Nominal top particle size
• Material characteristics
• Available installation envelope
• Required sampling duty and frequency
• Downstream sample-handling requirements
• Electrical and control requirements
The two Go-Belt® sampler configurations are designed for different material-stream arrangements.
For suitable applications where material is presented on a moving conveyor belt.
For suitable applications where material is presented as a falling or free-flowing stream at a transfer or discharge point.
The Go-Belt® Linear Cross-Stream Sampler can be supplied as an individual sampling machine or engineered as part of an integrated Go-Belt® Sampling System. Depending on the application, the surrounding scope can incorporate sample transfer, collection, preparation equipment and controls.
Provide T.K.O Engineering with your material-stream and installation information for an application review and appropriate sampler configuration.
