The Komax Custody Transfer Mixer or CT mixer is installed upstream of the crude oil sampling transfer line. They assure that the bottom sediment and water – B, S & W – is thoroughly dispersed throughout the crude oil stream for optimal crude oil metering performance. An even water droplet size and distribution occurs over a wide flow range and pipe size range. Our automation means a truly representative and repeatable oil sampling process.
Komax CT mixers are installed in petroleum custody transfer sampling lines such as ship and tank truck terminals or refinery transfers in combination with a LACT unit where proper crude oil metering is an absolute must. CT mixers are typically supplied with weld neck flanges or ends prepared for welding. For ease of installation, Komax CT mixers are supplied complete with a two-inch flanged port for the automatic sampler connection. Dimensions and design graphs for all CT mixers are listed below.
