This practice describes the design and operation ofcommercially available grab and discrete depth samplers forpersons responsib
17、le for designing or implementing samplingprograms, or both.4.2 These sampling devices are used for sampling liquids intanks, ponds, impoundments, and other open bodies of water.Some may be used from the edge or bank of the sampling site,whereas some can only be used from a platform, boat, or bridgeo
18、ver the sampling site. Some of the devices described aresuitable for sampling slurries and sludges as well as aqueousand other liquids with few or no suspended solids.4.3 Practice D 5743 provides guidance for sampling drums,tanks, or similar containers.4.4 This practice does not address general guid
19、elines forplanning waste sampling activities (Guide D 4687), develop-ment of data quality objectives (Practice D 5792), the design ofmonitoring systems and determination of the number ofsamples to collect (Practice D 6311), in situ measurement ofparameters of interest, data assessment and statistica

Pre-Sampling5.1 Samples should be collected in accordance with anappropriate work p
21、lan (Practice D 5283 and Guide D 4687)and in accordance with the Data Quality Objectives (PracticeD 5792). The plan should include a worker health and safetysection because of the potential hazards associated with sam-pling wastes.35.2 All equipment shall be clean, dry, and compatible withthe antici
22、pated composition of the material being sampled(Practice D 5088). When sampling a hazardous material, if theexterior of the sample bottle or sampling apparatus contacts thehazardous material, it needs to be cleaned before subsequentsteps, such as labelling or sample transfer, are taken.5.3 For sampl
23、ers with long handles, if high voltage electri-cal wires could come into contact with the handle, the handleshould be made of nonconductive material, such as wood.5.4 For guidance in obtaining a representative sample, seeGuide D 6044.5.5 For guidance in how to prepare composite samples andsubsamples
24、 in the field, see Guide D 6051.5.6 Some discrete samples can be taken using bailers (seePractice D 6699). Additional information on selecting sam-pling equipment, based on the sample matrix, and the con-straints on the use of equipment, based on the physical andchemical properties of the equipment,

Sampling Equipment and Procedures6.1 Dipper:6.1.1 DescriptionA dipper can consist of a variety ofpieces of equipment assembled in a manner to obtain a sample.6.1.1.1 One type has an adjustable clamp attached to the endof a metal rod or tube, which may be extendable (s
26、ee Fig. 1).The rod or tube forms the handle and the clamp is used tosecure it to a beaker or other sample container.6.1.1.2 Another type of device is made using a stainlesssteel tube clamped to a moveable bracket that is attached to arigid handle. The angle of the cup to the handle is adjustable(Pra
27、ctice D 5358).6.1.2 Procedure:6.1.2.1 With the beaker facing downward, lower the dipperbeaker into the liquid slowly until it is submerged. Try to causea minimum of surface disturbance.6.1.2.2 Rotate the beaker through 180. If there is a current,the mouth of the beaker should face upstream during th
28、erotation.6.1.2.3 Allow the beaker to fill.6.1.2.4 Slowly bring it to the surface.6.1.2.5 Transfer the sample, usually by gently pouring thedippers contents into a clean sample container.6.1.3 Advantages and Limitations:Advantages LimitationsIt is inexpensive.When attached to a rigid pole, itcan rea
29、ch to4m(1013 ft)away from the personcollecting samples.It can be used to obtain onlysurface samples.Because the sample collection chamberis always open, it cannot obtain asample containing the same strataproportions as the strata at the locationbeing sampled.6.2 Liquid Grab Sampler:6.2.1 Description
