  • Patent number: 6564657
    Abstract: A sampling device provides accurately repeatable samples for determination of consistency. A chamber is placed into the process line, and a piston in the chamber can be moved rearwardly to withdraw a quantity of process into the chamber. A sample container in communication with the chamber is also filled. The piston is moved forwardly to urge the process back into the process line, while the sample container remains full of process. The sample container has a known volume, and the piston in its forward position closes the sample container so the sample therein is limited to the known volume. The sample is transferred to a filter, and clean water assures that all solids are transferred to the filter.
