ABSTRACT:
An improved pellet sampler and method of sampling pellets is disclosed. The apparatus is an opening in a conduit, such as the open end of a pipe, exposed to flowing pellets and communicating with an auger which revolves to remove a small portion of the flowing pellets as a sample. The improvement is the fixed opening having a plane at an angle between parallel and normal, preferably 45.degree., to the flow of pellets coinciding with the auger feed end and normal to the auger axis. The method is to revolve the auger at a measured rate to collect a uniform sample.
