OPTA™ Cryogenic 8200 manual Spot Sampling System
The OPTA-PERIPH 8200 series is a high-precision spot sampling solution for cryogenic liquid media, covering LNG, LPG, LCO₂, e-methane/biomethane, and liquid hydrogen mixtures, for custody transfer, laboratory testing and third-party verification, with zero leakage and zero emissions throughout.
Overview
The OPTA-PERIPH 8200 series is a high-precision spot sampling solution developed for cryogenic liquid media, focused on sample integrity across storage, transport and loading/unloading, for both conventional and low-carbon fuel applications. It provides traceable, representative samples for custody transfer, laboratory testing and third-party verification, and is widely suited to marine, shore-based tank and process line applications.
Applicable media and applications
The series covers mainstream cryogenic liquid media with stable, non-fractionating, non-vaporizing sampling. Core applicable media include:
- LNG (liquefied natural gas), LPG (liquefied petroleum gas) and other conventional liquefied hydrocarbons
- e-methane / biomethane and other renewable low-carbon fuels
- LCO₂ (liquefied carbon dioxide)
- Liquid hydrogen mixtures / green hydrogen blend fuels
- Other similar cryogenic liquid alternative fuels
Suitable for energy storage and transfer, custody transfer, composition analysis, quality control and related scenarios, with flexible adaptation to different liquid levels and operating conditions for spot sampling.
Core product advantages
Zero sample distortion, no component fractionation
Dedicated cryogenic process bypass with expandable sealed cavity design maintains subcooled liquid state throughout, avoiding light/heavy component vaporization bias at the source and ensuring sample composition matches line fluid for accurate, reliable analysis.
Cryogenic-ready, durable and reliable structure
Vacuum insulation protects across the full cryogenic temperature range. Simple, robust construction with no dynamic seals or wear-prone pistons eliminates conventional seals and lubricants, reducing maintenance and extending service life for long-term reliable operation.
Easy operation, efficient and flexible deployment
Manual spot sampling mode obtains a representative sample in a single operation without continuous running. Dedicated sealed sample containers are standard for sealed storage and multi-party sub-sampling. Direct line mounting requires no extra engineering and fits confined spaces and mobile applications.
Safe and environmentally sound, zero leakage and zero emissions
Fully enclosed sampling design with no medium vaporization or external loss, meeting safe handling requirements for flammable, high-pressure and cryogenic media and environmental emission rules for both safety and environmental protection.
Compliance
Products comply with international sampling and analysis standards; data carries global credibility and is suitable for custody transfer and quality determination. Core compliance includes ISO 8943, ISO 10715, ASTM D1945 and related industrial safety standards for cryogenic fluid sampling.
