Minimess Sample Valve The Science Behind Equipment Reliability The minimess valve allows live zone sampling from return lines or from high pressure hydraulic lines. These valves are useful for most circulating oil systems, easy to install and available in several types and sizes. Features • Sample pressurized systems within seconds • Taps hot active fluid • Pressure test to 6000psi • Easy to extract oil and control flow with port adapter • Rugged metal cap with backup seal • Choice of threads and seal types To complement the minimess valves there are a number of attached fittings available including port adapters, 1/4” hose barbs and micro bore test hoses. Minimess Valves are available in 1/4” and 1/8” sizes.
