SMTS MARINE SOLUTIONS LLC supplies the Honeywell HERMetic Sampler A-2, a portable tank sampling device designed for restricted sampling applications where such sampling is authorized.
The HERMetic Sampler A-2 is designed for sampling liquids such as crude oil and petroleum products from tanks on marine vessels, refineries, terminals, and storage facilities. It connects to 2-inch HERMetic vapor control valves and allows operators to collect representative samples at selected depths within the tank.
The HERMetic Sampler A-2 provides a practical solution for obtaining representative liquid samples during cargo inspection, custody transfer, inventory control, quality control, and pollution-prevention operations.
The sampler uses a graduated tape to control and identify the sampling depth, while interchangeable sampling bottles allow different sampling methods according to operational requirements.
Depending on the selected bottle, the sampler can collect a sample from a specific point, zone, bottom, or during movement through the liquid. After sampling, the liquid is transferred from the sampling bottle to the appropriate sample container under the applicable operating procedure.
Precision Tank Sampling for Marine, Petroleum & Oil Terminal Operations
Restricted Tank Sampling
The HERMetic Sampler A-2 is designed for restricted tank sampling applications, providing a controlled and practical method for collecting representative liquid samples from marine cargo tanks, petroleum storage tanks, oil terminals, and industrial facilities.
Its portable design allows operators to perform sampling at selected tank depths while following established operational and safety procedures. The A-2 is suitable for crude oil and petroleum product sampling, cargo inspection, quality control, inventory management, and custody transfer operations where restricted sampling is permitted.
2-Inch HERMetic Valve Connection
The HERMetic Sampler A-2 is designed for connection to compatible 2-inch HERMetic vapor control valves, providing a secure and convenient interface for tank sampling operations. The appropriate quick-connect arrangement allows the sampler to be efficiently fitted to the valve, supporting smooth and controlled sampling procedures.
This connection design makes the A-2 suitable for marine cargo tanks, petroleum storage tanks, oil terminals, and other tank sampling applications, helping operators carry out sampling efficiently while maintaining a practical and reliable connection to the tank system.
Graduated Sampling Tape
The HERMetic Sampler A-2 features a durable graduated sampling tape that enables operators to accurately identify and control the sampling depth during tank sampling operations. The clearly marked tape helps users position the sampling bottle at the required level, supporting consistent and representative crude oil, petroleum, and marine cargo sampling.
The standard configuration is available with a 30 m / 100 ft graduated tape, while longer tape options may be available depending on the specific equipment configuration. This depth-measurement capability makes the A-2 a practical solution for tank inspection, cargo sampling, quality control, inventory management, and custody transfer applications.
Rugged Marine Construction
The HERMetic Sampler A-2 is built with durable, corrosion-resistant materials to withstand the demanding conditions commonly encountered in marine, petroleum, oil terminal, and chemical tank sampling operations. Its robust construction supports reliable performance during frequent handling and use in challenging industrial environments.
Depending on the component, the sampler incorporates materials such as AISI 316 stainless steel, brass, PTFE, and PVDF, providing a combination of mechanical durability, chemical resistance, and long-term service reliability. Designed for professional marine operations, the A-2 offers a rugged and dependable tank sampling solution for cargo inspection, petroleum sampling, storage tank measurement, and other demanding applications.
Sampling Bottle Options
The HERMetic Sampler A-2 supports multiple sampling methods, making it adaptable to different tank sampling requirements.
Zone Sampling: Collects a representative sample from a selected zone.
Spot Sampling: Collects a sample at a specific tank depth.
Running Sampling: Collects liquid while the sampling bottle moves through the product.
Bottom Sampling: Designed for collecting a sample from the lower section of the tank.
These options allow operators to select the appropriate sampling method according to cargo and inspection
Safety & Hazardous-Area Applications
The HERMetic Sampler A-2 is designed for professional marine, petroleum, oil terminal, and storage tank sampling applications where controlled sampling procedures and hazardous-area safety are essential. Its robust construction and certified design support reliable operation in demanding environments where flammable vapors may be present.
The A-2 is listed with ATEX II 1 G c IIB T6 (Zone 0) hazardous-area approval, making it suitable for applicable hazardous locations when used according to its certified configuration and operating requirements. The HERMetic product range also references relevant IMO, SOLAS, MARPOL, API, ISO, and OCIMF requirements and industry practices.
Built for demanding environments, the HERMetic Sampler A-2 combines controlled sampling, rugged construction, and hazardous-area suitability for professional tank operations.
