For more than 65 years, Swagelok® products have provided the highest quality fluid system connections for high performance – helping process analyzers deliver reliable results to users around the world. Sampling systems expert Tony Waters and Swagelok have created a comprehensive reference covering the engineering involved with designing and operating a sampling system for a process analyzer.

Exclusively available for purchase at Swagelok sales and service centers, Industrial Sampling Systems offers in-depth analytical instrumentation material suited for anyone from a novice to a degreed engineer (Figure 1). Along with recent innovations such as the Swagelok® Process Analyzer Sample System live training course, and the Swagelok® Pre-Engineered Subsystems product line, this reference fills a critical need for those who design, engineer, and maintain sample systems for on-line process analyzers.

Industrial Sampling Systems is a one-of-a-kind book for the industry that captures the experience and knowledge that Tony Waters has acquired over a career of more than 50 years. At a sneak preview of the reference book at the 58th annual ISA Analysis Division Symposium, Waters received rave reviews from among the 350 attendees, including leaders from across the industry:

[Industrial Sampling Systems] is a testament to Tony Water’s years of dedication to the Process Control Industry, said Phil Harris, Senior Scientific Consultant at HariTec. [This book is] a Herculean endeavor in capturing the knowledge acquired over decades of experience and clearly explaining the subject to both novice and experienced practitioners. There is no doubt that this book will be the industry reference for years to come.

Waters, who collaborated with Swagelok engineers and associates, created a compelling work that balances theory and practical examples, making it an ideal read for students as well as experienced engineers, designers, and technicians. The book also provides readers with a sampling of information featured in Swagelok’s intensive 40-hour complementary Process Analyzer Sampling System (PASS) training classes offered in several locations across the globe.
