SwagelokPre-EngineeredSubsystems

Swagelok now offers a series of

predesigned and preassembled

subsystems for use in all types of

plants and facilities where fluids are

being processed. Use Swagelok pre-

engineered subsystems to create fully

documented fluid sampling and control

systems and bring consistency to your

operations. Easy to install and operate,

these subsystems offer the high quality

and support you expect from Swagelok.

SwagelokofferstheFLMintwotubingsizes.The1/2in.system,whichuses1/2in.tubingand

fittings,offerslessflowresistance(higherCv)and,therefore,ismoresuitableforliquidsamples.

The1/4in.versionisintendedmainlyforgases.

End Connections

Allsystemsincludea1/8in.(3mm)connectiontotheanalyzerlineanda1/4in.(6mm)

connectiontothepurgedrain.Half-inchsystemsinclude1/2in.(12mm)fastloopanddrain

connections.Quarter-inchsystemsinclude1/4in.(6mm)fastloopanddrainconnections.

Pressure Gauge

Thepressuregaugeisavailablewith63or100mm(21/2or4in.)dial,controlrangesfrom0to

150 bar(0to2175psi),andwithorwithoutdamping.
