Abstract: A fluid analysis system and method for in situ optically imaging a fluid, such as lubricating oil, sampled from a flow path. The system has a chamber with an inlet in fluid communication with fluid flowing under pressure in the flow path. The pressure of the received fluid in the chamber is reduced, the reduced pressure fluid is directed from the the chamber into the fluid analysis system, and the fluid analysis system optically images the fluid. The fluid analysis system can produce data representative of particle size, particle shape, or number of particles. In one embodiment, a valve for directing fluid to the chamber and a valve for returning fluid from the chamber to the flow path under pressure allow the fluid to flow through the chamber for a period before shutting the valves, reducing the pressure of the fluid, and optically imaging the fluid.

Abstract: In order to allow verification of the purity of a fluid sample from a pressurized fluid system, a sampling assembly includes a pressure chamber adapted to removably receive a sampling container. An inlet in the pressure chamber of the sampling assembly is connected to a bleed point of the pressurized fluid system of which the fluid is to be sampled, and the fluid in the system is caused to flow for a predetermined time interval through the sampling container in the pressure chamber. An outlet of the sampling assembly is connected to a return point of the fluid system. When the sampling assembly is disconnected from the fluid system, the pressure in the pressure chamber is released and the sampling container now containing a representative sample of the fluid in the system may be removed from the sampling assembly for analysis of its contents.
