Samples

Samples are taken by accredited samplers. A sample is a bottle filled with water, which is transported under refrigerated conditions to the laboratory for testing. Sample bottles exist in all shapes and sizes (from 100 ml to 5 liters). In addition, large volume samples are also taken, whereby a quantity of 100 to 3000 liters of water is sampled. Some sample bottles are specially designed for a specific test. For example, the sample bottle for taste and odor testing has a special cap so that there is no air in the water in the sample bottle.

Samples can be taken anywhere; from surface to tap water. In this way, the water quality is monitored from intake to tap.
