Heat Exchangers for Sampling

Often used to monitor boiler water quality without shutting down the system, these heat exchangers cool hot liquid samples to safe temperatures for testing. Sample liquid flows through the tubes, and cold water from an external water supply flows around the tubes to cool the liquid in the tubes. Cooled sample water then flows out of the heat exchanger for analysis.
304 stainless steel tubes are more corrosion resistant than copper tubes.
316 stainless steel tubes have the best corrosion resistance.
Heat exchangers with 1.3 or 1.64 sq. ft. surface area are often used for sampling liquid from a boiler. Heat exchangers with 3.8 sq. ft. surface area are good for sampling steam from a boiler or for continuously cooling sample water.
