Detailed information

The SiloPicker is a target point sampler for sampling free-flowing bulk solids directly from silos and other storage containers. The SiloPicker simplifies sampling and enables target point samples to be taken efficiently from specific depths or layers. A special mechanism only opens the closure of the collection chamber when the desired depth is reached and the collector is retracted again. In this way, targeted samples can be taken for analysis or several samples can be collected to produce a representative composite sample.

The design of the collector makes it easy to penetrate the bulk material and take the desired sample without disturbing the surrounding material. However, the possible sampling depth is influenced by the density of the bulk material.
The SiloPicker can be disassembled into its individual parts for easy cleaning.

Typical application area of the product

The SiloPicker is used to check the consistency and quality of bulk goods, ensuring they meet specified standards. Applications include storage monitoring for the early detection of spoilage, contamination or other quality losses; taking samples for analysis to examine the properties of bulk goods; taking samples of grain, animal feed and other agricultural products directly from silos in agriculture; and taking chemical powders and granulates for quality and safety tests in the food or chemical industry.

How to use the product
  1. Immerse the sampler to the desired depth in the medium to be sampled. The sealing sleeve closes the filling opening.
  2. At the desired depth, pull the sampler back approx. 10 cm. This causes the sealing sleeve to open the filling opening.
  3. Move the sampler slightly up and down. This fills the sample container with the medium to be sampled.
  4. Pull the sampler out of the medium.
  5. Unscrew the lower part of the sample container and empty the sample into a suitable collecting vessel.

Transport case, large

The large transport case is a plastic case with a foam insert. It features a sturdy carrying handle, snap locks, and pick-and-pluck foam on the inside. Thanks to its hard outer shell, sensitive devices are protected from shocks during shipping or when carried in the field.
The case is light enough to be carried with ease, yet still offers ample space for equipment and essential accessories (tubing, adapters, tools). This transport case keeps your equipment organised, protected, and portable – no loose accessories flying around, no accidental knocks to the devices.
