Retractable Tube – Rear Discharge
For Unlimited Volume Of Sample.
FEATURES
The Model RT-RD Retractable Tube and Auger Sampler extracts samples of powdered and granular products from pneumatic or gravity flow conveying lines or from storage hoppers. Its unique design provides unlimited volume of sample because the sample is being discharged while the tube is extended into the conveying line. Completely explosion-proof, the model RT-RD Sampler is all air operated and the sample contact points are 316 Stainless Steel, Delrin® and Teflon®.
