Claim 5:
6. The apparatus according to claim 5, wherein the first multiport valve is configured to be adjusted between at least two valve settings (I and II), wherein
in setting I, the two ports that are connected via the two interfaces to the sample circuit vessel are each linked by one of the two ports connected to the sample loop, such that a liquid sample of the solution present in the sample circuit vessel is guided via an inlet interface of the two interfaces through a sample loop and via an outlet interface of the two interfaces back to the sample circuit vessel, as a result of which the sample loop is filled with the liquid sample; and
in setting II, the two port that are connected via the two interfaces to the sample circuit vessel are linked to one another, such that the solution is routed directly back to the sample circuit vessel without passing through the sample loop, and the two ports that are connected to the sample loop are each linked to one of the two ports connected to the plurality of conduits, such that the liquid sample present in the sample loop can be routed via the inert gas portions to the sample distribution unit and then to the at least one sample vessel.
