The HERMetic Sampler GTX Chem is a professional portable gas-tight sampling system designed for closed sampling of chemicals and liquid cargoes where controlled and representative tank sampling is required.
The sampler is designed for applications involving hazardous, corrosive, volatile, low-viscosity, and high-viscosity liquids where avoiding unnecessary tank pressure release and exposure to fumes is important.
The HERMetic Sampler GTX Chem allows a representative liquid sample to be collected from a selected sampling height and subsequently transferred from the sampling bottle into a laboratory bottle by pressurizing the upper chamber with an integrated pump.
The sampler can accommodate different sampling methods, including spot, bottom, running, and zone sampling, depending on the selected sampling bottle and application requirements.
SMTS Marine Solutions LLC supplies and supports Honeywell HERMetic sampling equipment, providing equipment supply, technical consultation, inspection, maintenance, repair, spare-parts assistance, and service support for vessel operators, ship managers, terminals, refineries, cargo surveyors, and marine inspection professionals.
Gas-Tight Closed Sampling for Chemical & Liquid Cargo Operations | SMTS MARINE SOLUTIONS LLC
Designed for Representative Tank Sampling
The HERMetic Sampler GTX Chem is designed to obtain representative samples of liquids from tanks while maintaining a gas-tight sampling arrangement.
The system is suitable for applications where a representative sample is required for laboratory analysis, product verification, quality control, contamination checking, or cargo inspection.
The sampler can support:
- Chemical Sampling
- Liquid Cargo Sampling
- Tank Sampling
- Representative Sampling
- Cargo Quality Inspection
- Laboratory Analysis
- Product Verification
- Marine Cargo Surveying
Minimize Pressure Release & Fume Exposure
The gas-tight construction of the HERMetic Sampler GTX Chem is designed to avoid pressure release from the tank and reduce exposure to potentially hazardous fumes during sampling operations.
Closed sampling can help support:
- Reduced vapour exposure
- Controlled tank sampling
- Reduced product release
- Safer sampling operations
- Representative sample collection
- Controlled laboratory sample transfer
- Professional cargo inspection
Actual operation should always follow the vessel SMS, cargo procedures, terminal requirements, site safety procedures, equipment certification, and manufacturer’s instructions.
Spot, Bottom, Running & Zone Sampling
The HERMetic Sampler GTX Chem can be fitted with specific sampling bottles to obtain different types of tank samples.
Spot Sampling
Spot sampling allows a sample to be collected from a specific selected level within the tank.
Bottom Sampling
Bottom sampling supports collection of liquid from the lower section of the tank and can be useful for checking water, sediment, contamination, or product condition.
Running Sampling
Running sampling allows collection of a sample while the sampler is moved through the selected sampling range, supporting representative sampling of the liquid column.
Zone Sampling
Zone sampling allows sampling from a defined section or zone of the tank according to the applicable sampling procedure.
HERMetic GTX Chem | Chemical & Hazardous Liquid Sampling
Suitable for Corrosive & Hazardous Liquids
The HERMetic Sampler GTX Chem is specifically configured for applications involving corrosive liquids and chemicals.
Honeywell specifies materials including stainless steel AISI 316, PTFE, and PVDF, with FFKM gasket material for corrosive-liquid applications.
The sampler can support sampling of:
- Corrosive Chemicals
- Hazardous Liquids
- Petrochemical Products
- Chemical Cargoes
- Hydrocarbon Liquids
- Industrial Liquids
- Volatile Liquid Products
- High-Viscosity Liquids
- Low-Viscosity Liquids
Product compatibility should always be verified before selecting and using the sampler, including compatibility of the bottle, seals, gaskets, and wetted materials.
