Bulk Solids Sampling: M&W Samplers – RF
Manual division of powdered sample material is easy with a M&W Riffle Divider.
After a representative sample extraction has been made, further reduction is a major prerequisite for exact analysis. The sample material cascades into the two collecting receptacles through a number of slots that are arranged opposite each other. With each dividing process the feed quantity is halved until the required sample quantity has been reached. Riffle dividers are particularly suitable for field-use since they can be operated independent of
electrical or mechanical energy sources.
The Riffle Divider provides an accuracy which is superior to all other manual procedures. Higher accuracy can only be obtained with mechanical dividers such as M&W’s rotary tube divider Type PD.
