High pressure sample containment system for electromagnetic measurements

摘要

The present invention is related to systems and methods for chemical and biological analysis and, in particular, to systems, apparatus, and methods of sample conditioning and analysis.

主权项

1. A sample containing system, comprising:
a non-metallic sample container for measurement of magnetically induced RF signals, the sample container defining an inner sample receptacle configured to hold a sample fluid; an outer cover configured to mate with the sample container such that the cover imposes a compressive stress over the sample container thus, in operation, allowing the sample container to reach operating pressures of greater than 30,000 psi that would normally burst the sample container; and a mounting system configured to securingly receive the sample container and the outer cover, the mounting system including:
a body having a channel formed therein, the channel in fluid communication with a source of pressurization fluid; anda piston, movable within the channel, configured to pressurize the sample within the inner sample receptacle while fluidly isolating the sample fluid in the inner sample receptacle from the pressurization fluid.
