The cost to the oil industry of inaccurate measurement of water content and density for cargo loaded into, or discharged from, a tanker can be considerable. The best way to ensure accurate measurement is to install a WGPSN N-LINE mixer ahead of your sampling port. |

No Moving Parts. Stream flow provides all the mixing energy. |

The WGPSN N-LINE Mixer is installed upstream of the sampling point in a crude oil transfer line. The static mixer ensures that the bottom sediment and water is thoroughly dispersede throughout the crude oil stream. The intense mixing action generates an even water droplet size and distribution over a wide flow range. This allows the automatic sampler to take a truly representative sample of the pipeline contents.
Note: A very important feature of the Wood Group CT Mixer is the addition of a special fast mixing element that cancels all of the axial rotation of the flow downstream of the mixer. Violent rotation of the stream could cause a centrifuging problem of the water to occur. This last mixing element, with its anti-spin fin, eliminates the centrifugal force that has accumulated and disperses the product uniformly throughout the pipeline.
THE WGPSN N-LINE DESIGN PROVIDES ACCURATE MIXING FOR SAMPLING
The WGPSN N-LINE Mixer was designed to solve conventional custody transfer mixing problems. It may be installed in a vertical or horizontal line. These unique inline mixers have four interacting mixing zones between each element set. The first section of the element redirects the flow from the bottom of the pipe wall, forcing it to the top. The second section reverses the process, forcing the flow back to the bottom of the pipeline. The same mixing action takes place from side-to-side of the pipe wall. This ensures that the BS & W is dispersed throughout the circumference of the pipeline |
