Definitions
- the invention relates to a method and a device for dosing a sample amount according to the preamble of claim 1 or 4.
- Samplers based on the vacuum principle with a pump and a metering device are known from the prior art, the metering device comprising a metering container, a metering tube and a drain pipe with a shut-off device.
- the metering device is shut off by the shut-off device.
- the pump is then activated and blows a suction line free via the dosing container, the suction line connecting the dosing container to the sampling point.
- the pump then sucks a fresh sample into the dosing container via the suction line.
- the pump is then deactivated again and the excess sample volume flows through the suction line back to the sampling point.
- the desired sample volume remains in the dosing container, the remaining sample volume depending on the position of the dosing tube.
- the shut-off device is opened and the desired sample volume is drained into a sample container.
- the dispensing tube In order to dispense different sample volumes, the dispensing tube has to be moved manually.
- the object of the invention is to provide a metering device for a sampler with which different sample volumes can be easily set and removed.
- the main idea of the invention is that a desired sample volume is withdrawn in several steps, in particular in two steps, a freely adjustable sample volume being metered in and withdrawn in a first step, and a predetermined sample volume being metered in and withdrawn in a second step so the sum of the free adjustable and the predetermined sample volume results in the desired sample volume.
- the first removal step comprises blowing out a suction line and sucking in a fresh sample quantity with a pump, the fresh sample quantity being sucked in until a dosing container is filled, and wherein after the fresh sample quantity has been sucked in, a valve is closed and then the metering and removal of the variable sample amount is carried out by means of an additional conveyor.
- the second removal step comprises opening the valve and discharging an excess amount of sample via the suction line, the sample amount remaining in the metering container being fixed by the arrangement of a metering tube being removed by the conveying device after the suction line has been removed.
- the metering device according to the invention for a sampler for metering a predetermined amount of sample comprises a metering container with a metering tube and a shut-off device, the shut-off device being designed as a conveying device, with the conveying device additionally being able to meter out a freely adjustable sample amount, so that a desired amount of sample can be obtained from the sum the fixed sample amount and the freely adjustable sample amount.
- the device described has the advantage that no manual intervention on the metering device is necessary anymore if different amounts of sample have to be metered with the metering device.
- the desired additional amount of sample can easily be set via the conveyor, which in an advantageous embodiment of the invention is designed as a flow-proportional conveyor, for example as a metering pump or as a peristaltic pump.
- the device according to the invention has a conventional pump with high pumping capacity for conveying a sample over the long way from the tapping point to the dosing device has the advantage that the service life of the flow-proportional conveying device is significantly increased since it only has to convey the sample over the short distance from the dosing device into the sample container. The wear on the flow-proportional conveyor is thus reduced and the overall time for sampling is reduced.
- a conventional metering device with a metering container can be easily retrofitted by designing the shut-off device as a flow-proportional conveying device and expanded into a metering device according to the invention.
- the metering device comprises a metering container 1, a metering tube 2, a conveying device 3, which acts as a shut-off device when switched off, and a valve 4.
- FIG. 1 shows the metering device during the first removal step when blowing out an intake line 5 by means of a pump 6, which is designed, for example, as a diaphragm pump, the suction line 5 connecting a removal point 7 to the metering container 1.
- the valve 4 is open and the conveyor 3 is switched off.
- the valve 4 is opened and is closed when the maximum filling volume of the metering container 1 has been reached.
- the pump 6 is switched off.
- the maximum filling volume is detected via a level limit switch 9.
- valve 4 is closed and the delivery device 3 activated so that a freely selectable sample quantity is conveyed from the metering container 1 through the conveying device 3 into the sample container 8, the conveying device 3 being designed as a metering pump in the exemplary embodiment shown.
- the conveying device 3 is switched off and the valve 4 is opened, so that the excess amount of sample flows back into the sampling point 7 via the suction line 5. Only a fixed amount of sample, which is predefined by the arrangement of the metering tube 2, remains in the metering container. This point in time is shown in FIG. 4. These measures are part of the second withdrawal step.
- Fig. 4 shows the dosing device during the second removal step.
- the valve 4 is open and the pump 6 is switched off.
- the dosing container 1 contains the predetermined amount of sample.
- the conveying device 3 is activated and the predetermined amount of sample additionally reaches the sample container 8 and the dosing process is completed.
- the sample container 8 there is now the desired amount of sample, which results from the sum of the freely selectable amount of sample and the predetermined amount of sample.
