Abstract
A well fluid sampling apparatus provides a time delay after actuation of the tool and before a sample is taken. The tool is operated by well pressure acting on a piston. The piston is initially hydraulically blocked so that it cannot move. The time delay is provided after the piston begins moving. Additional time delay devices can optionally be included.
