Sampling Systems Our Experience
13 Grain Sampling Systems
The company started operations in 1993 and quickly
Fertilizer Sampling Systems developed into one of the largest suppliers of sampling
systems in Australia.
14 Slurry Sampling Systems
QHS sampling systems are used for collecting
15 Other Sampling Systems representative samples from streams of bulk materials and
Laboratory Preparation slurries. Materials sampled include coal, mineral ores,
Equipment processed minerals, aggregates, concentrates, fertiliser,
mineral sands, process by-products, limestone, cement,
grains, woodchips and various slurries.

From our base in Sydney, we have supplied systems and


equipment throughout Australasia, Asia, Europe, Africa and
the Americas.

QHS products range from sampling systems at mines and


processing plants to major multi-stage sampling systems
at import and export terminals, sampling flowrates up to

Our Projects
The sampling projects undertaken by QHS have ranged from
small single stage samplers to very large 4-stage sampling
systems. QHS has designed and supplied the majority of the
sampling systems for the coal and minerals import and export
terminals on the east coast of Australia over the past 20 years.
These contracts have ranged in value up to $6 million AUD.

QHS’ clients include most of the major mining companies in


Australia, as well as import and export terminals, power stations
and processing plants. We have supplied sampling equipment
and services to the UK, New Zealand, PNG, Indonesia, Vietnam,
Laos, Taiwan, Philippines, China, Russia, Korea, Venezuela,
Egypt, France, Netherlands, Belgium and Finland.

Our Equipment
QHS offers a wide range of sampling equipment, designed
to suit different locations and different materials. Our range of
sampling equipment includes:

Sampling Systems
QHS is the major supplier of coal sampling
equipment in Australia. We have supplied almost
all of the new coal terminal sampling systems
and system upgrades in Australia since 1993.
This includes all of the 20 sampling systems at
the two largest coal ports, at Mackay (DBCT and
Hay Point terminals), and at Newcastle (PWCS
Carrington and Kooragang, and NCIG terminals).

Completed

QHS has supplied hundreds of samplers


and sampling systems to coal mines, coal
handling and preparation plants and
power stations.

Concentrates
Sampling Systems
Lead, zinc and copper concentrates can
be very sticky and easily lose moisture during
sampling. Generic sampling equipment is
usually not suitable for these materials.

QHS sampling equipment for concentrates has


been designed to suit the sticky nature of these
materials and to minimise the moisture losses.
It includes special chute designs with UHMWPE
liners and airlocks between sampling stages.

QHS has supplied sampling systems for


concentrates at mines, import and export
terminals and refineries in Australia and
overseas.
