Abstract
The sampler comprises a vessel assembly for taking, conducting, and storing a fluid sample to be stored at a predeterminable storage temperature as well as a cooling assembly, thermally coupled to the vessel assembly, for cooling the fluid sample. The cooling assembly has a first cooling volume, which encompasses the vessel assembly, and a second cooling volume, which jackets the vessel assembly. To cool the fluid sample, the internal temperature of the vessel assembly is lowered by means of the cooling assembly prior to and/or during the dispensing of the fluid sample, and the fluid is subsequently conducted or held in the vessel assembly.
