Trico Sampling Ports, Tubes, Fittings and Accessories
Sampling ports (valves) are designed to draw samples from the most representative areas of industrial equipment, and to collect samples under the equipment’s typical operating condition. The ports are a simple, quick and accurate way to take samples from hydraulic, lubricating, and circulating systems. Access to systems is obtained through the use of a mating sample port adapter that screws onto the sample port. To guard against contaminating the sample and for superior leak protection, Trico sampling ports all feature a check valve and Viton® o-ring seal cap.
Protective cap seals against dirt and moisture
Cap connected to sample port with a heavy brass chain to prevent loss
Sample directly from lubricating oil while equipment is running
Minimizes introduction of contamination to systemUsed in conjunction with proper accessories sample ports are adaptable to pressure, static, and vacuum locations
Sampling ports and port adapters are available in several types and sizes to match the varying requirements of lubrication systems.

Pitot Tubes are equipped with sampling ports and are designed to provide a safe, simple and effective method of sampling fluids from sumps and non-flooded horizontal drain lines. They install easily into drain, fill, or sampling pipe ports, and ensure oil samples are drawn from the most appropriate location of the sump reservoir. They also ensure that the sample is taken from the exact location inside the system each time, which is important for maintaining consistency in routine sampling. The thick wall tubing can be bended and directed to the ideal sampling location with the use of a swivel adapter.
Sampling tubes are available in various types and lengths, and with swivel options to match the varying requirements of lubrication systems:

Liquid Level Gauge Sample Ports provide easy viewing of fluid levels and oil condition in many industrial applications. They are ideal for bearing housings and other non-pressurized applications. Liquid Level Gauge Sample Ports include a Pitot Tube for static sampling, which provides repetitive, representative oil sampling.
Guards are standard on all sights and may be rotated 360º for easy viewing of fluid level and condition
Liquid Level Gauge Sample Ports are equipped with Pitot Tubes in lengths of 12″, 18″, and 24″
Level gauge sights are available in various lengths
For use with non-pressurized systems

Model 36813 Sample Bottle with Vacuum Pump
Vacuum Pumps are necessary tools for extracting an oil sample from the sample port. This is a compact pump, easy to transport and use (model 36800). Coupled with a sample port adapter, flexible tubing, and an oil sample bottle, it can be used to draw contamination-free samples in the most representative locations. A heavy-duty model that includes a release valve is also available (model 36801).
Draws a vacuum of 27 inches of Hg (Mercury)
38-400 bottle thread
Uses 3/16″ to 5/16″ tubing
Sample Bottles (4oz and 8oz), Purge Bottles (16 oz, used to flush out the dead zone of hoses, tubing, and equipment when drawing oil samples for oil analysis), a black plastic Mailer Tube (used to mail a single 4 oz sample bottle of fluid for lab analysis, it protects the sample and helps eliminate leakage during shipment to the oil analysis lab), and Flexible Tubing (1/4”, 5/8”, and 1/2” OD) are also available accessories needed to put a complete sampling process in place.
