Schematic view of the device process. Step 1. A fifteen-second pause to ensure that there is no turbulence in the liquid during which the inside bin and the container are connected while the receptacle and inside bin are not. Step 2. Disconnection of the inside bin and the container resulting in separation of one-twentieth of the sample. Step 3. Connection of the inside bin and the receptacle. The device will stay in this phase for 15 seconds allowing complete discharge of the inside bin content to the receptacle.
