Clean sample cylinders thoroughly before collection to help protect sample accuracy
The Welker Steam Cleaner is a laboratory sample cylinder cleaning system designed to remove residual impurities from multiple non-passivated, double-ended sample cylinders before sample collection. Built for natural gas and hydrocarbon sampling programs, the Steam Cleaner uses wet steam to dissolve and flush contaminants, dry steam to bake away remaining residue, and a vacuum pump to void cylinders before use. With dual manifolds, multi-cylinder capacity, steam traps, and optional Welker Sight Glasses, the system helps improve sample accuracy, reduce contamination risk, and save time by cleaning multiple sample cylinders at once.
Laboratory Sample Cylinder Cleaning
Cleans and removes residual impurities from multiple non-passivated, double-ended sample cylinders before natural gas or hydrocarbon sample collection
Natural Gas Sampling Programs
Supports accurate sample analysis by helping prevent contaminated cylinders from affecting natural gas sampling results
High-Volume Cylinder Maintenance
Allows labs and service teams to clean multiple sample cylinders at once for faster turnaround and more efficient sampling operations
Complies With:
Resources
Dual Manifolds With Multi-Cylinder Capacity
Cleans multiple double-ended sample cylinders simultaneously to help reduce cleaning time, labor, and operational cost.
Steam Generator for Wet Cycle
Uses wet steam to evenly heat cylinder surfaces, dissolve residual impurities, and flush contaminants from the sample cylinder.
Steam Separator for Dry Cycle
Produces dry steam to bake away remaining residue and dry the cylinder after the wet cleaning cycle.
Vacuum Pump to Void Sample Cylinders
Helps fully remove residual liquids and prepare cylinders for accurate sample collection.
Steam Traps
Collect and safely discharge wet steam during the cleaning process for safer, more controlled operation.
Optional Welker Sight Glasses
Allow operators to visually confirm the discharge of condensed wet steam during cylinder cleaning.
