Bunker Drip Samplers
More details

The Tank-Eye Bunker Drip Sampler is a premium, portable sampling flange designed to provide accurate and representative fuel oil samples during bunkering operations. Utilizing a proven continuous-drip mechanism, this system ensures full compliance with the strictest international maritime regulations.

Installed directly at the vessel's bunker manifold, this mechanical sampler draws a continuous sample throughout the entire fuel delivery period.
