ABSTRACT:
An improved sampling system is provided for on-line monitoring of a liquid such as a process liquor in a paper mill or the like. The sampling system includes, in general terms, an improved sampling probe for circulating process liquor from a process tank or the like to a sensor device such as a refractometer for monitoring of selected parameters. The sampling probe includes intake and return conduits having ends nested within an open-ended probe housing disposed within the process tank, such that the intake and return conduit ends are shielded from direct contact with large particulate settling within the tank. The intake and return conduit ends are further arranged for intersection of liquor flow streams associated therewith at a position inset within the probe housing to generate turbulence which tends to sweep large particulate away from the probe while maintaining smaller particulate in suspension to avoid probe clogging. In addition, the sensor device includes a brush unit for preventing accumulation of particulate which could otherwise interfere with the monitoring process.
