摘要

A hydraulic fluid sampler (20, 20', 20", 20'", 20'") and a method for obtaining a hydraulic fluid sample includes a sample container holder (26) configured to support a sample container (28) mounted thereto in an inverted position and a non-inverted position. In the inverted position, the sample container holder (26) is configured to flush the sample container (28) with hydraulic fluid so as to flush away any contaminates that may be present. In the non-inverted position, the sample container holder (26) is configured to fill the sample container (28) with hydraulic fluid.
