inFlow™ ACE Crude Oil Sampler

inFlow™ ACE Crude Oil Sampler

Adaptable main line isokinetic sampling for changing crude oil and liquid hydrocarbon conditions

The Welker inFlow™ ACE Crude Oil Sampler is a patented main line isokinetic sample extractor designed to collect accurate, representative composite samples of crude oil, condensate, and other liquid hydrocarbons. Built for custody transfer, transmission pipeline, and high-speed short-batch sampling applications, the inFlow™ ACE helps operators adapt to changing product characteristics, batch sizes, and pipeline conditions. With adjustable insertion length, externally adjustable sample volume, fast sample speeds, sand reliefs, shaft and seal protection, a purge tube, and an optional insertion tool, the inFlow™ ACE supports dependable sample integrity and repeatable crude oil sampling performance.

Where to Use

Main Line Liquid Hydrocarbon Sampling

Isokinetic composite sampling of crude oil, condensate, and other liquid hydrocarbons in flowing pipelines.

Custody Transfer Applications

Designed for accurate, representative sampling in custody transfer and fiscal measurement applications.

Transmission Pipelines and Short Batches

Supports high-speed sampling for short sample batches and variable pipeline conditions.

Complies With:

API 8.2 ASTM D4177 ISO 3171

Double-Acting Piston Motor

Provides the pumping power needed to sample high-viscosity crude oil and liquid hydrocarbons.

Manual or Automatic Insertion With Optional Insertion Tool

Allows the shaft to be inserted or retracted under reduced or full pipeline pressure for easier operation and maintenance.

Adjustable Insertion Length

Helps reach the center third of most transmission pipelines for representative isokinetic sampling.

Coated 316/316L Stainless Steel Solid Bar Insertion Shaft

Protects the shaft and sealing surfaces to improve durability in demanding crude oil applications.

Sand Reliefs

Helps sample products containing BS&W while reducing extra wear on sampler components.

Adjustable Volume Positive Displacement Collection Heads

Captures and fully pushes sample grabs to the container for more complete composite sample collection.

External Sample Volume Adjustment

Allows operators to change sample grab size without removing the extractor from the pipeline.

Welker Purge Tube

Purges trapped liquid from the collection head to the sample container to help prevent batch cross-contamination.

Collection Head With Inline Relief

Helps prevent collected samples from flowing back into the pipeline if pipeline pressure drops.
