ABSTRACT:
A hermetic sampling device and method for sampling hazardous fluids that greatly reduces the risk of exposure to operators and the environment. The preferably portable device comprises, a housing having a ball valve at its lower end, the housing adaptable to fit standard valves, such as are commonly found on barges, and a sample catcher movable between the housing and a vessel containing a volume of fluid to be sampled. The sample catcher is lowered from the housing into the vessel to obtain a sample of fluid which is then transferred from the vessel to the housing from where it is further transferred, under pressure, to a hermetically sealed container utilizing hollow needles insertable into the container. When the transfer has been completed, any fluid remaining in the device is returned to the vessel.
