1.1''This practice covers the use of a peristaltic pump for sampling liquids from multiple depths. It is applicable for a wide range of fluids including: high-viscosity fluids, aggressive and corrosive fluids, high-purity solutions, and abrasive fluids. It is especially useful for sampling liquids that require complete isolation from the pump.

1.2''This practice includes the determination of sample depth, pump setup, and collecting a sample to be analyzed.

1.3''This practice is not intended to give detailed instructions for running a peristaltic pump or to recommend which peristaltic pump to purchase. It instructs the field personnel how to connect the pump and collect a sample.

1.4''Units'''The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard. All observed and calculated values shall conform to the guidelines for significant digits and rounding established in Practice D6026.
