Heated composite gas sampling for natural gas near the hydrocarbon dew point
The Welker HGS Heated Gas Sampler is designed for representative composite sampling of natural gas at or near the hydrocarbon dew point. Mounted directly to the pipeline inside an insulated, corrosion-resistant enclosure, the HGS maintains the sampler temperature above the hydrocarbon dew point to help prevent condensation, phase change, and sample distortion. With Welker’s Fresh Sample System™, a positive displacement piston sample pump, purge manifold, heater with thermostat, and optional timer/controller, the HGS supports accurate natural gas sampling proportional to flow or time in harsh environments and remote field locations.
Where to Use
Composite SamplingNatural gas at or near the hydrocarbon dew point where heat is needed to help prevent condensation, phase change, and sample distortion
Custody TransferBilling-quality measurement at sales points
Cold Climate LocationsNorth of the 32nd parallel north or south of the 32nd parallel south, where ambient conditions may require heat
SC Cylinder
A DOT 3E cylinder, the Welker SC Single Cavity Cylinder is designed for the safe collection and transportation of natural gas and light liquid hydrocarbon samples.
