Installation and Use of Automatic Sampling Systems

Producing an effective automatic-sampling system can be very time-consuming and very costly. The Valid Analytical Measurement (VAM) programme initiated by the DTI and co-ordinated by the Laboratory of the Government Chemist, ICI Engineering, DIAS, UMIST and Cranfield Institute of Technology, aims to bring together all that is considered best practice in implementing automatic sampling. This book outlines the actions and decisions that are entailed in designing and implementing an automatic-sampling system. It highlights the features that a well-designed system must possess, and gives warnings as to what constitutes bad practice. The material is designed to remind and advise and is short and to-the-point. Together with the others written under the VAM programme, this book gives a comprehensive reference to automatic-sampling systems. Other books in the VAM programme are "Sampling Systems for Process Analysers" (2nd Edition) by K. Carr-Brion, J.R.P. Clarke and E. Harding and "Sampling Source Book by C.R.P. Thomas and H.
Schofield This book is aimed at chemists, chemical engineers, process engineers, chemical process-design engineers and instrumentation engineers in the process industries.
