Abstract: A sample port includes a body equipped with an internal cavity and two plungers arranged moveably in the internal cavity, whereby the plungers can be pressed against each other in the internal cavity, in order to compress a sample. At least one of the plungers can be moved into a reactor in order to collect a sample. The sample port also includes a sample chamber, which is formed by a space remaining between the internal cavity and the plungers. At least one sample-container connection is connected in connection with the internal cavity in order to collect the sample from sample chamber. In addition, the sample port has a filter which is provided to at least either plunger for separating a liquid component of the sample from a solid component and means for leading the liquid component of the sample out of the sample chamber.

Abstract: The invention relates to a sample port, filter, and sampling method. The sample port according to the invention comprises a body equipped with an internal cavity and two plungers arranged moveably in this, which can be pressed against each other in the internal cavity, in order to compress a sample, and at least one of which plungers can be moved into a reactor, in order to collect a sample. The sample port also comprises a sample chamber, which is formed by the space remaining between the internal cavity and the plungers, and at least one sample-container connection connected in connection with the internal cavity, in order to collect the sample from sample chamber. In addition, the sample port has filter means adapted to at least either plunger for separating the liquid component of the sample from the solid component and means for leading the liquid component of the sample out of the sample chamber.
