2 Recommendation for safe use
I. This Operation and Service Manual is a guide in order to help the user to operate the instrument to
our best knowledge.
II. Nevertheless the maker disclaims all responsibility and liability for damage resulting from the use of
the equipment regardless of the cause of the damage.
III. Attention is drawn to the possible hazard due to electrostatic charges which may be present
in the tank. This may happen in particular with static accumulator liquids, i.e. liquids which have low
conductivity of 50 picoSiemens/metre (pS/m) or less.
IV. It is very important that the instrument is grounded to the tank before the bottle is introduced
into the tank and remains grounded until after complete withdrawal from the tank.
A. If the instrument is installed with the quick connect coupler, grounding is effected through
the quick connect coupler and the mating nipple of the valve provided that these parts are
kept clean and free from corrosion in order to guarantee electrical conductivity. If a grease is
used for this purpose, it must be one which contains graphite.
B. If the instrument is not connected to the mating deck valve, the instrument has to be also
earthed by means of the grounding cable and clamp.
V. It is anticipated that the user will have specific operating methods laid down to ensure safety
when using this type of apparatus. In this case the user's instructions shall be strictly
observed.
VI. In the absence of such instructions the following should be noted:
A. If a metal sounding pipe is fitted beneath the deck valve or tank is inerted, then sampling,
etc. is permissible at any time with no restriction.
B. If there is no sounding tube or tank is not inerted, the following precautions shall be taken:
1. If the cargo is not a static accumulator liquid, i.e. its conductivity is more than
50pS/m, then sampling is permitted provided that the instrument is properly
grounded and earthed before the bottle is inserted into the tank and remains
earthed until the bottle has been removed from the tank.
2. If the cargo is a static accumulator liquid, i.e. its conductivity is less than 50 pS/m,
then sampling is permitted provided that:
a) The instrument is properly grounded and earthed before the bottle is

inserted into the tank and remains earthed until the bottle has been
removed from the tank.
b) The apparatus is not introduced into a tank until at least 30 minutes have
elapsed after completion of any loading operation or stopping the injection
of inert gas.
C. For further guidance refer to International Safety Guide for Oil Tankers and Terminals
(ISGOTT), ISBN 10 85609 291 7, Fith Edition 2006, or consult the appropriate Legislative
Authority for the installation.
VII. This product and his use is / may be related to international, national, local or company
regulations or standards. It is the customer / user responsibility to ensure that the way to use
the device complies with such applicable regulations or standards.
VIII. This device is a protable product. It must not be permanently installed on the tank and must
be disconnected after use and stored in a safe and dry area.

5 Description
5.1 General
The HERMetic Samplers are designed for closed sampling of liquids or chemicals, which present
a Fire-, Health- or Air pollution Hazard. The gas tight construction of these units avoids a pressure
release from the tank and exposure to fumes during operation.
The equipment is designed and certified for use in potentially explosive atmospheres area.
5.2 Sampling types
Several kinds of samples can be realised with this sampler. To get different samples, 4 bottles are
available: Zone bottle, Spot bottle, Running bottle and Bottom bottle.
The Zone bottle allows sampling of the upper level inside the tank.
The Spot bottle allows sampling at a determinate height.
The running bottle allows sampling all along the displacement of the bottle inside the tank.
The Bottom bottle allows sampling of the tank bottom.
As far as the kinds of sampling are concerned, please refer to ISO 3170 “Petroleum liquids –
Manual sampling”.
Different kinds of samplings
All these bottle are interchangeable, please refer to § 6.1.

For specific application, other bottles exist. For further information, please contact.
The sampler is delivered as standard with zone sampling bottle. All other sampling bottles are
available as option.

5.3 Sampling principle
5.3.1 Connection and grounding system

All HERMetic products are easy to connect. Indeed, all HERMetic devices are equipped with a
quick coupler for connection on a HERMetic ball valve.
Place the unit on the appropriate valve and activate the locking system. Depending on the locking
system, either rotate the collar and actuate the lever or pull on the sleeve.
If the instrument is connected to genuine HERMetic valve, grounding is effected through the quick
connect coupler and the mating nipple of the valve. No additional grounding strap is necessary.
For further information, please refer to §2 “Recommendation for safe use”.

5.3.2 Sampling method
The sample is taken by a vertical move of the bottle inside the fluid.
The bottle is linked with a graduated tape. A reading window allows monitoring the bottle location.
For complete explanation of sampling procedures, please refer to §6 “Operation”.
Important note: to avoid contamination of the sample taken by the sampler itself, check and clean
the unit and the bottle prior to use. Clean the unit with an appropriate cleaner without impacting the
unit or contamination risk of the next sample.
5.3.3 Liquid transfer

After sampling, the liquid can be transferred into a laboratory bottle through a transfer valve.
The transfer of the liquid from the sampling bottle to a laboratory bottle occurs by gravity.
The opening of the bottle valve is realized by lowering the sampling bottle until its sitting on the ball
of the valve.
A pump can be used to accelerate and complete the transfer of the fluid.

6 Operation
6.1 Checking before use
Before using the sampler:
 Check the good state of the device.
 Check the cleanliness of the unit (sampler and bottle) to prevent any contamination of the
sample.
 Inspect the bottle tape end for breaks, kinks and wear. If there is some damage, replace
the tape before use.
 Check of the attachment of the hook locking device on the tape.
 Check the closure of the hook locking device according to Fig. 1. The swivel hook has to be
locked in use.
