Multiple Bottles per Sampling Event
Multiple Bottles per Sampling Event is not a stand alone function but works in conjunction with TIME,
FLOW and certain * Modes (*02, *04, *05, *06, *09) to expand the capabilities of t he sampler. T his o ption
places 1 sample in from 2-24 bottles in rapid succession during 1 sampling event (such as a contact closure or
a time interval). To use Multiple Bottle per Sampling Event, the user selects the mode of choice - a TIME,
FLOW, or * Mode. After entering the required information, the PUSH START/OPTIONS prompt will
appear on the display. At this cue press <MULTI BOTTLE> and enter the number of bottles into which 1
sample should be placed, in rapid succession. For example, Multiple Bottles per Sampling Event would be
used if a sample is to be taken every 100,000 gallons, and 1 sample is to be placed in 5 different bottles each
time there is a contact closure. The unit would start the sampling sequence after it had received a contact
closure. It would draw and place 1 sample in the first bottle, immediately move t o t he second, draw and place
1 sample in t hat bottle, immediately move t o t he third, draw and place 1 sample in that bottle and so on until it
had deposited 1 sample in the specified number of bottles (in this example 5).

This display indicates the sampler is ready to program. M ultiple
Bottles per Sampling Event is not a stand alone program. It works in
conjunction with FLOW, TIME, and certain * Modes. In this
example <FLOW> was pushed as the mode of choice.
PUSH START/OPTIONS
04:30:02
At t his prompt the user selects Multiple Bottles per Sampling Event,
by pressing <MULTI BOTTLE>.
BOTTLES PER SAMPLE?
__ __ 04:30:02
Input t he number of bottles into which 1 sample will be placed in
rapid succession during a sampling event and press <ENTER>.
PUSH START/OPTIONS
04:30:02
At t his point, simply press <START>. N OTE: Multiple Bottles per
Sampling Event and Multiple Samples per Bottle cannot be selected
simultaneously. They are mutually exclusive options.
FLOW MODE
__ __ __ __ 04:30:02
The unit is now waiting for a contact closure to initiate the sample
sequence.
