Compact bypass sampling for repeatable crude oil and refined hydrocarbon composite samples
The Welker inLoop™ ACE Crude Oil Sampler is designed for bypass composite sampling of light and medium crude oil and refined hydrocarbons. Ideal for bypass sampling systems, sample lines up to 1 inch, and high-speed short-batch sampling, the inLoop™ ACE collects repeatable, representative samples using a 0.5–5 cc collection head and externally adjustable sample volume. With durable 316/316L stainless steel wetted parts, coated shaft and sealing surfaces, check valves designed to capture the complete product makeup, optional purge, optional VCO process connection, and optional mounting bracket, the inLoop™ ACE supports reliable liquid hydrocarbon sampling in compact or retrofit installations.
Bypass Liquid Hydrocarbon Sampling
Composite sampling of light and medium crude oil and refined hydrocarbons in bypass sampling systems.
Short-Batch Sampling
Supports high-speed sample collection where smaller batches require faster, repeatable grabs.
Small Sample Lines
Designed for sample lines up to 1 inch, including compact and retrofit installations.
Complies With:
Resources
0.5–5 cc Sample Collection Head Capacity
Supports high-speed sampling and smaller sample grabs for short-batch applications.
Externally Adjustable Sample Volume
Allows operators to set sample volume without removing the sampler from the bypass loop.
Check Valves Designed to Capture Complete Product Makeup
Helps collect representative samples by capturing the full makeup of the flowing product.
316/316L Stainless Steel Wetted Parts
Provides durable, corrosion-resistant construction for crude oil and refined hydrocarbon sampling.
Coated Shaft and Sealing Surfaces
Helps extend equipment life by protecting critical surfaces from wear.
Optional VCO Process Connection
Supports easier retrofitting into existing sampling systems.
Optional Purge
Helps prevent sample batch cross-contamination by clearing retained product from the sampler.
Optional Mounting Bracket
Provides additional installation support for compact bypass sampling systems.
