Process isolation device, a method for inserting a process sensor probe into a process location and a method for removing a process sensor probe from a process location

Abstract

A process isolation device for handling a process sensor probe at a process location fitting inserts the process sensor probe into a process at a process location fitting and pulls out the process sensor probe from the process. The process isolation device includes an adapter arranged in the process location fitting and fitted for the process sensor probe to hold and move the sensor in at least three positions of the process sensor probe, the positions including the process sensor probe inserted position into the process location via the fitting into the process fluid, the process sensor probe retracted position from the processor location fitting and the process sensor probe pivoted aside position from the processor location fitting, and push-pull means in co-operation with pivot means to push and pull the process sensor probe as attached to the adapter in co-operation to pivot the process sensor probe in the adapter.
