4.4 Sample Preparation
4.4.1 Using the Fibrosampler 192 to
Prepare Samples
To use the Fibrosampler 192 to
form the sample beard, follow
theses steps:
• Select from a sample of fibers
a sub-sample of
approximately 25 grams or
more (about two handfuls),
and place it in the
Fibrosampler cylinder.
• Insert the comb into the
Fibrosampler combholder.
• With a circular motion of the
left hand, press the fibers so
they protrude through the
holes of the sample plate.
Then relax the pressure of the
left hand so the fibers can be
easily pulled through the plate
holes by the teeth of the
comb.
