More Information
Summary:A fluid sampling device is described which provides for sample entry to be handled automatically by the instrument, thus allowing the operator to be involved in other activities while the sampling process is underway. It also ensures reproduceable sample size, automatically cleans the sampling device between samples, and reduces the risk of user injury. Furthermore, the sampling system allows for the use of any foreseeable collection mechanism. The device comprises: (a) a system for detecting the presence and type of a container of the material, (b) a system for withdrawing a sample of the material, wherein the system is determined by the type of the container, and (c) a system for cleaning those parts of the device exposed to the material between the withdrawal of subsequent samples.
