By Hand Using a Sample Trap in a Sample Wand
The sample wand is used to sample in hard-to-reach areas and to protect the safety of the operator. The sample
trap is inserted into the clip portion of the sample wand. Proper installation ensures that the sample trap stays in
place.
1. Wearing clean cotton gloves, remove a sample trap from the package, or use an existing clean sample
trap that has not exceeded its sampling events.
2. If you obtained a sample trap from the package, close the cover immediately to avoid contamination.
3. Press the button on the sample wand, and insert the narrow end of the trap into the slot.
Avoid touching the sampling area of the sample trap when inserting it into or removing it from the sample
wand.
