Sample bottle SAMbottle
When taking samples of bulk material using sample bottles, there are several key aspects to consider. Firstly, the material of the bottle should be compatible with the bulk material to avoid reactions. Before sampling, the bottles must be thoroughly cleaned and, if necessary, sterilized. The size of the bottle should be sufficient to take a representative sample, and the closure must be secure and tight. After sampling, clear labeling with the date, time, and location of the sample is essential. During the sampling itself, it's important to use a technique that ensures a representative sample. Safety precautions should always be observed, especially with hazardous bulk materials. Finally, the sample should be stored, transported, and disposed of in accordance with applicable regulations.
