The Honeywell HERMetic Sampler GT is a portable, gas-tight liquid sampling system engineered for the safe and reliable collection of representative hydrocarbon and hazardous liquid samples from marine cargo tanks, petroleum storage tanks, offshore installations, refineries, and terminals. Its closed sampling design helps minimize vapor emissions, reduce operator exposure to hazardous fumes, and maintain sample integrity during cargo sampling operations.
SMTS Marine Solutions LLC provides product supply, spare parts assistance, compatible accessories, inspection, troubleshooting, and technical support enquiries for Honeywell HERMetic tank gauging and sampling equipment. The HERMetic Sampler GT supports closed sampling applications involving cargo quality verification, laboratory analysis, inventory control, and pollution prevention across marine and industrial environments.
Advanced Closed Sampling Solutions for Marine, Offshore & Petroleum Industries
Features of Honeywell HERMetic Sampler GT
- Gas-Tight Sampling Technology: Designed to collect liquid samples under closed conditions, helping minimize vapor release and fume exposure.
- Sampling Capacity: Collects liquid samples using a sampling bottle of approximately 0.5 litres, with laboratory sample transfer up to 0.47 litres in the specified configuration.
- Graduated Sampling Tape: Provides sampling-height measurement with a standard tape length of 30 m (100 ft); other tape lengths may be available depending on configuration.
- Multiple Sampling Methods: Supports zone sampling, with optional spot, bottom, and running sampling bottles.
- Gravity-Based Sample Transfer: Transfers collected liquid to a laboratory bottle through a dedicated distribution block.
- Deck Valve Compatibility: Designed for compatible 2-inch HERMetic deck or compact valves using the appropriate connection and adaptor.
- Corrosion-Resistant Construction: Uses materials including AISI 316 stainless steel, PTFE, and PVDF, as specified for the equipment.
- Hydrocarbon-Compatible Sealing: The standard Sampler GT uses FKM gaskets; chemical compatibility must be verified for the actual cargo.
