The first is for the collection of a grab sample ofwater at a specific site representing conditions only at the timeof sampling. Grab sampling is the only procedure suitable
20、forbacteriological analysis and some radiological test procedures.4.2 The second practice is for collection of a compositesample at a specific site, portions of which are collected atvaried time intervals. Alternatively, the composite may consistof portions collected at various sites or a combinatio
21、n of bothsite and time variables.4.3 The third practice provides a continuously flowingsample from one or more sampling sites, suitable for on-lineanalyzers or for collecting grab samples from a continuouslyflowing sample stream.5. Significance and Use5.1 The goal of sampling is to obtain for analys
22、is a portionof the main body of water that is representative. The mostcritical factors necessary to achieve this are points of sampling,and materials selection, system design, time of sampling,frequency of sampling, and proper procedures to maintain theintegrity of the sample prior to analysis.5.2 H
23、omogeneity of the process to be sampled is frequentlylacking, necessitating multiple-point sampling. If it is imprac-tical to utilize a most-representative sampling point, it may bepractical to determine and understand interrelationships so thatresults obtained at a minimum number of points may be u
24、sedto characterize the system.5.3 Samples collected from a single point in a system arealways recognized as being non-representative to some degree.For this reason, total representativeness of samples cannot be aprerequisite to the selection of a sampling point. The degree ofrepresentativeness of th
25、e sample shall be assessed and theassessment made a part of the permanent record. This willprevent an artificial degree of accuracy from being assigned tothe data derived from tests on the sample.5.4 The samples shall be of sufficient volume and shall betaken frequently enough to permit reproducibil
26、ity of testingrequisite for the desired objective, as required by the method ofanalysis to be used.5.5 Laboratories or facilities conducting water samplingshould be in compliance with Guide D 3856.6. Interferences6.1 If chemicals are injected or other streams are introducedinto the medium to be samp
27、led, the sample collection pointshould be placed far enough downstream to ensure a com-pletely mixed sample.Assuming turbulent flow (for example, aReynolds number of at least 4000), locating the samplecollection point an equivalent length of 25 diameters down-stream of the chemical injection point i
28、s considered acceptable.An equivalent length of 50 diameters is recommended forlaminar flow.6.2 The sampling of high-purity water requires specialconsideration. Contact with any material other than the originalcontainer subjects the sample to possible contamination oralteration. This includes contac
29、t with air. Additional require-ments are given in Practice D 4453.7. Materials and Apparatus7.1 Sample Lines:7.1.1 GeneralSample lines should be designed so that thesample is representative of the source. They shall be as short asfeasible and of the smallest practicable bore to facilitateflushing, m
30、inimize conditioning requirements, reduce lag timeand changes in sample composition, and provide adequatevelocity and turbulence. The lines shall have sufficient strengthto prevent structural failure. The designer is responsible forensuring that applicable structural integrity requirements aremet. S
31、mall tubing is vulnerable to mechanical damage andshould be protected.7.1.1.1 Traps and pockets in which solids might settle shallbe avoided, since they may be partially emptied with changesin flow conditions and may result in sample contamination.Sample tubing shall be shaped so that sharp bends, d
32、ips, andlow points are avoided, thus preventing particulates fromcollecting. Expansion loops or other means shall be provided toprevent undue buckling and bending when large temperaturechanges occur. Such buckling and bending may damage thelines and allied equipment. Routing shall be planned to prot
33、ectsample lines from exposure to extreme temperatures.NOTE 2Studies (15)3on particle transport in sampling lines haveindicated that sample velocity rate and stability are important factors indetermining deposition and erosion rates on sample tube walls and timerequired to reach and maintain equilibr
34、ium. Although limited, other workhas also noted effects of sorption of dissolved species within tube walldeposits. Velocities near 1.8 m/s (6 f/s) seem to optimize these factors, but,other velocities can provide acceptable results. Sample velocity should beconsidered as a key design issue along with
35、 type of sample, lag time,pressure drop, new or existing sample lines, etc. when determining sampleflow rates. Maintaining the selected velocity is necessary to achievesample representivity.7.1.2 MaterialsThe material from which the sample linesare made shall conform to the requirements of the appli

38、mplinglines where levels of contaminants in the sample are high, orsample constituents require it. For sampling high-purity watersor corrosive waters, the sampling lines shall be made ofstainless steel that is at least as corrosion resistant as 18 %chromium, 8 % nickel steel (AISI 304 or 316 austeni
39、ticstainless steels are commonly used (6).NOTE 3Plastic tubing should be avoided where low values of dis-solved oxygen are to be measured since atmospheric gases may diffusethrough the tubing and cause an analytical bias. The selection of thesample line material should be based on the parameters of
40、interest.7.2 Valves and Fittings:7.2.1 MaterialsValve and fitting materials should be com-patible with the sample and the sample line material selected.AISI 316 austenitic stainless steel is commonly used. Pressureand temperature ratings should be selected based on thespecific service of the valve/f
41、itting.7.2.2 Isolation ValvesAt least one shut off valve (com-monly referred to as a root valve) shall be placed immediatelyafter the point from which the sample is withdrawn so that thesample line may be isolated when desired. For safety purposes,an isolation valve should be placed at the sample co
42、oler inlet (ifused) and be rated in accordance with the pressure andtemperature of the sample source.7.2.3 Pressure ReducersThe pressure reducer, in combi-nation with properly sized sample lines, is the primary com-ponent necessary to control the sample flow at the ratesrequired to give the most rep
43、resentative sample (see Note 2).Flow control is accomplished at the same time sample pressureis reduced.7.2.3.1 For samples equal to or greater than 500 psig (3447kPa), the pressure reducer shall be a rod-in-tube type orifice orcapillary (variable or fixed). Variable rod-in-tube devices arerecommend
44、ed since they offer two advantages: (a) they arecapable of varying the pressure drop and, therefore, the flow;and (b) they are cleanable in place (exercising the position ofthe tapered rod in the tube). Forepressure regulators are notrecommended for large pressure reductions because of suscep-tibili
45、ty to erosion, plugging, and wire drawing of the stem orseat.7.2.3.2 For samples less than 500 psig (3447 kPa), thepressure reducer shall be a needle valve.7.2.4 Pressure RegulatorsSince most on-line analyzersare flow sensitive, as well as temperature sensitive, the flowrate in the branch circuits s
46、hall also be controlled to ensurerepeatable analytical results. This is achieved by establishing aconstant pressure zone where the sample line feeds theanalyzer branch lines. See Practice D 5540 for additionalinformation. Because of the relationship of pressure and flow,a zone of constant pressure w
47、ill ensure that each analyzer fedfrom this zone gets a constant flow rate independent of actionstaken in the other branch lines while maintaining constant flowin the main sample line. Maintaining constant flow is alsoessential in regularly monitored grab samples. Two methodsare available to achieve
48、this constant pressure zone in conjunc-tion with the upstream pressure reducer: (1) back pressureregulator (fixed or variable) or (2) head cup. Using a forepres-sure regulator without a back pressure regulator or head cup isnot recommended. A forepressure regulator alone will notprovide a constant s
49、ample line flow. Flow changes in thebranch lines below the regulator result in the forepressureregulator closing or opening to maintain the analyzer inletpressure thereby changing the main sample line flow anddisrupting the representivity of the sample from its source.7.2.4.1 Use of a back pressure regulator is the preferredmethod to achieve the constant pressure zone. Total sampleflow is established using the primary pressure reducer with allflow going through the back pressure regulating valve to drain,recovery, or for grab sample. The regulating valve establis
