6、 Samples are withdrawn from the system by(1)a closedvessel capture,and(2)an open-end vessel(see Fig.1).Bothprocedures are practical for most liquid aerospace propellantsnot excessively corrosive or toxic.4.Apparatus4.1 Stainless Steel Pressure Sampling Cylinders,1-Lcapacity,equipped with stainless s
7、teel valves on each end.4.1.1 CautionPressure sampling cylinders must bemarked for the liquid being sampled.Cylinders for onematerial must not be interchanged with sampling cylinders ofother materials because of the possibility of incompatibility.4.2 Full Protective Suits.4.2.1 CautionDue to the tox
8、ic and corrosive nature ofmost propellant fluids and their vapors,extreme care must beexercised in handling.Full protective suits must be worn whensampling these fluids.4.3 Polyethylene Wash Bottle,1-L capacity,filled withdemineralized water,filtered in the manner described in Prac-tice F311.4.4 Sta
