Abstract
Various implementations include a reversible flow sampler including a housing, a housing cover, and a shuttle. The housing defines a sampler chamber having an inlet and an outlet, a first opening, and a second opening. The shuttle is movably disposed within the housing and coupled to the housing cover. The shuttle has a first shuttle position and a second shuttle position. In the first shuttle position, the shuttle fluidly connects the first opening to the sample chamber inlet and the second opening to the sample chamber outlet. In the second shuttle position, the shuttle fluidly connects the second opening to the sample chamber inlet and the first opening to the sample chamber outlet.
