The Model 6215 Bio-Probe provides a retractable means of collecting samples of bacteria in processes at pressures up to 1500 PSI/10.3 MPa and temperatures up to 500ºF /260ºC.

Cosasco® Bio-Probes are used to suspend sample elements in the area to be monitored. Insertion of the bio-probe can be adjusted to permit electrodes positioning at precisely the desired point within the process.

Cosasco® Bio-Probes are used to suspend sample elements in the area to be monitored. Insertion of the bio-probe can be adjusted to permit electrodes positioning at precisely the desired point within the process. Standard lengths are available in 18, 24, 30 and 36 inches. A safety clamp assembly is recommended at pressures above 100 PSI and temperatures above +150ºF.‍

Benefits

Early detection is the key to controlling MIC once it has infected the system. Once the microorganisms have formed a bio-film, they become more resistant to biocides and can rapidly grow if not detected and controlled. Cosasco retrievable and retractable bio-probes offer:

• Simple and economical means of collecting bacteria samples
• Indicator for effective use of biocide treatments, reducing costs and minimizing dangerous effects to environment
• Flush Probe design ideal for frequently pigged pipelines
• Use in high or low pressure system, without the need for system shutdown

Applications

• MIC is most commonly found in systems that contain metal alloys that are most susceptible to corrosion, including mild steels, stainless steels, aluminum alloys, copper alloys, and nickel alloys. Bio-probes offer plant operators a simple and effective
