Overview
A Sample Cooler is a shell and tube heat exchanger used to cool the sample from a process stream to the required temperature conditions for safety and analysis. It is one of the most critical components of a sampling system suitable for most applications in liquid, gas, or steam processes. The sample to be cooled flows through the tube side of the cooler, and the cooling fluid, usually water, flows through the shell side. Then cooled sample is taken to a laboratory for analysis or piped to in-line process instrumentation for further monitoring of properties such as conductivity, pH level, or other chemical constituents.
