Robinson Manufacturing Fuel Sampler/Thief, 'Multi-Function Sampler'
For taking various types of samples on oil and chemical tankers where closed or restricted sampling systems are used. The Robinson Multi-Function Sampler uses a modular design that allows the operator to change the sampler functionality by simply exchanging a few components. Each sampler comes standard with an adjustable opening top cap, a low-pressure bottom cap for taking zone or running samples, and a high-pressure bottom cap and trip funnel for obtaining RVP samples. The supplied 12-inch barrel, 16-inch barrel, and barrel coupler give the operator the ability to adjust the sampler volume capacity to fit their needs. Additional barrels and couplers can be used to increase capacity. All components are available individually upon request.
- Made from brass or stainless steel for durability.
- Modular component design gives the operator the ability to change between sample types and to increase or decrease sampler capacity in minutes.
Made in U.S.A.

Samplers can either be lowered with a specialised hand-winch, for smooth and clean operation, or, more crudely, with a length of cotton rope, cotton is used because it is chemically resistant to all fuels, any also fibre that enters the fuel will not harm it, what with fuel filters being made from cotton fibre also. Rope can be found in the options below, priced per metre.
