9. Rinse a clean tube (0290), or the
same tube, three times with the
water to be tested. Avoid spilling
water on the outside of the tube.
IMPORTANT: While the tube is
inverted, wipe the lip of the tube to
remove droplets of liquid that may
be present. This will prevent liquid
from being trapped under the ring
when the tube is returned to an
upright position.

sample. Pour the sample down the
inside of the tube to avoid creating
