Description

The method that is suitable for being installed to the casing device on the pipeline and housing is installed on pipeline
The application is the dividing an application that be on October 20th, 2004, title the applying date for No. 200480031342.4 Chinese patent application of " improvement of particle detector and method thereof ".
Technical field
The present invention relates to be suspended in the material in the fluid or detection, analysis and/or definite field of particle.
In a kind of special shape, the present invention relates to smoke detector, it is used for undesirable pyrolysis of detecting material or burning.In another form, the present invention relates to the smoke detector of early detection type, it can be used for ventilation, air-conditioning or the pipeline monitoring of special area.In another form, the present invention relates to surveillance and monitoring, for example building, fire-fighting or safety monitoring.In another form, the present invention relates to environmental monitoring, for example monitoring, detection and/or the analysis of fluid, area, zone and/or surrounding environment (comprising the commercial and industrial environment).
Obviously, the present invention has widely and to use, thereby only provides above-mentioned special shape in the mode of example, and scope of the present invention is not limited to these forms.
Background technology
The inventor has determined a kind of understanding: the smog type that produces in various pyrolysis and burning situation is different.The flame of conflagration is easy to produce a large amount of minimum solid particles, and these solid particles can be gathered into irregular shape and form cigarette ash.On the contrary, being easy in early days of pyrolysis produces a small amount of bigger liquid particles (having higher boiling), and this liquid particles exists can condense formation suspension grit bigger, translucent spheroid usually.
The inventor has also determined a kind of understanding: detecting particle relatively large in the whole duration quantitatively increases lentamente, the situation of ordinary representation pyrolysis or rough burning (smouldering) detects a large amount of granule of quick appearance and does not have early stage pyrolysis or rough burning then to represent to use and comprises and use setting on fire of combustion adjuvant.
The inventor has also determined a kind of understanding: dust particle is that abrasion or the non-thermal decomposition by natural materials in the environment or biosome produced, and compares with smoke particle, and these particles are generally very big.
The inventor has also determined following understanding:
The ceiling that originally traditional some type smoke detector is designed in the institute protection zone is installed.These detectors have lower sensitivity, be difficult to survey the existence of passing through the undesirable pyrolysis under the situation in the zone of being monitored at a large amount of gas, have therefore weakened the ability that this detector is responded to the existence of undesirable pyrolysis.
In order to overcome these defectives, developed highly sensitive suction-type smoke detector, and often be configured in and be used to monitor a certain zone on the pipeline.These detectors provide the detection than the highly sensitive hundred times of traditional point detector.These suction-type systems utilize negative pressure by air pump, and utilize dust filter to pollute to reduce undesirable dust, and it has polluted detector, maybe can not distinguish and cause the triggering false alarm with the detection of smog.
The smoke detector that preferably uses in the suction-type system is nephelometer.This is the responsive detector of a kind of particle to multiple size (for example in fire, or at overheated, pyrolysis or the unburnt multiple smoke particle that is produced in early days).
Optical type smog (or gas carries particle) detector of prior art uses the single light source irradiation may comprise the detection area of this kind particle usually.Some detectors two light sources have been proposed to use.Particle makes the part of this light scatter to one or more receiver elements (or sensor).Be used to trigger alerting signal from the signal of receiver element output.
Other detector utilizations provide the laser beam near infrared wavelength region usually of the monochromatic source of polarization.But, think that these detectors are not real nephelometers, because they tend to specific granularity (particle size) scope tetchiness, and be cost with the range of size of sacrificing other.
The defective of above-mentioned detector is that its nano sized particles characteristic to the fire of early stage pyrolysis and initial fire disaster and some conflagration is comparatively insensitive.
On the other hand, the radioelement of ionization smog detector utilization such as americium is at detecting chamber internal ionization air.These detectors are responsive to the nano sized particles that the flammability fire produces, but more insensitive to the larger particles of pyrolysis or rough burning generation.Find that also they tend to be used to replace in the detecting chamber ventilation through the air of ionization, and trigger false alarm thus.This has just produced the physical constraints to its useful sensitivity.
Other smoke detector has used xenon lamp as single light source.Xenon lamp produces the continuous spectrum that is similar to sunshine, comprises ultraviolet, visible and infrared wavelength range.Utilize the particle of detectable all sizes of this light source, and this detector produces and the proportional signal of mass density of smog, this is real turbidimetric characteristic.But this detector can not characterize the type of fire, and this is because it can not distinguish the granularity that (differentiation) is specific.And xenon light (source) the short lifetime of only having an appointment 4 years, and known its light intensity changes, and this has influenced sensitivity.
The inventor recognizes that also for wide output area is being provided aspect the sensitivity, the detector of prior art is provided for the smokescope data are applied to the analog-digital converter (ADC) of microprocessor.By careful design, use all capacity of ADC to represent maximum smokescope, for example (usually) 20%/m basically.ADC with the operation of 8 bit resolutions is very effective, 10 bits or the bigger then comparatively expensive and bigger microprocessor of needs of ADC.The ADC that has been found that 10 bits allows the concentration of 20%/m is divided into 1024 grades, and each grade all represented the increment (gain) of 20/1024=0.02%/m.So at different levels is 0,0.02,0.04,0.06 etc., and be not used in the possibility of meticulousr increment.When hanging down smokescope, it is considered to very rough resolution, makes to be difficult to be provided with subtly alarm threshold value.But when high smokescope, the resolution of 0.02%/m is just unnecessary, even for example there is the ability that alarm threshold value is set at 10.00%/m or 10.02%/m also not have benefit.So think that the resolution of detector of prior art is too rough and too meticulous during in high smokescope when low smokescope.
Any discussion that comprises in this manual document, device, effect (act) or knowledge all is used to the context of the present invention of explaining.It should be used as and be to recognize that: any material formed the priority date of the disclosure and claims of this paper or before, Australia or the prior art basis of other local correlation techniques or the part of common practise.
One object of the present invention is to provide a kind of particle detection apparatus and method, these apparatus and method can improve particle, pyrolysis, rough burning (smouldering) and/or catch fire incident and dust detection, distinguish and/or analyze, thereby the corresponding improvement of the detection of the particle that convection cell carries is provided.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a kind of being suitable for to use or as the particle detection apparatus of detector and/or monitor independently in conjunction with pipeline.

Embodiment
In described embodiment, mention binary channels at least, one is passage A, and it uses the wavelength such as ruddiness or infrared light wavelength, and another is a channel B, and it uses the wavelength such as blue light wavelength.Can use other passage, channel C for example, it uses the wavelength such as green wavelength.Also can use other wavelength according to the present invention, it will become apparent in the following description.Usually, if be equal to by longer wavelength reading of establishing and the reading of being established by shorter wavelength, then it is preferred.More preferably, deduct longer wavelength by shorter wavelength.Can also come the comparison wavelength readings by usage rate.
Light wavelength
In one aspect of the invention, the inventor has determined that the light wavelength that is adopted has a strong impact on the sensitivity of this device to granularity.Bohren CF and Huffman DR be at " Absorptionand Scattering of Light by Small Particles ", described in the various sizes scope scattering of light (dispersing) from particle among the ISBN 0471-05772-X.
Determined that Michaelis-Menten equation (Mie equation) is applicable to the particle of investigating the range of size that conforms with conventional smog and dust.The conflagration fire is easy to produce very a large amount of minimum carbonaceous particles, and it can be gathered into irregular shape and form cigarette ash.Opposite, being easy in early days of pyrolysis produces more a spot of bigger liquid particles (having higher boiling), exists with suspended particulates usually, and can condense and form bigger semi-transparent spheres or droplet (droplet).Dust particle is generally produced by abrasion, and has irregular shape, and it can be similar to by the bigger spheroid that is used for the modelling purpose.The source of smog or dust can not be monodispersity (comprising a kind of granularity), can be polydispersity and more can have, and has the range of size that can follow Gaussian distribution.The inventor have been found that be used for Size Distribution the generally held standard deviation 1.8 near 2.
Find that also it is bimodal distribution that gas in the city carries distribution of particles, locates out the peak at about 0.1 micron and 10 microns.Usually, smoke particle is in 0.01 micron to 1 micron the scope, and the dust-loaded soil particle of gas is in 1 micron to 100 microns the scope.But the place overlaps in 1 micron boundary line because at the dust of occurring in nature minimum less than possible maximum smoke particle.
The inventor has determined that also some granularity is easier to be distinguished by the light of specific (difference) wavelength.Suppose that so we use the incident light of two kinds of wavelength.Light can be at blue light in any scope of ruddiness (and infrared light).Example is the light in the scope from 400nm (blue light) to 1050nm (ruddiness).For example, can use 430nm (blue light) and 660nm (ruddiness).
By the population mean diameter is used Michaelis theory (Mie theory) and is used 1.8 standard deviation 0.01 micron granularity in 10 micrometer ranges, Fig. 1 shows the result of the incident light (430nm (blue light) and 660nm (ruddiness)) of two kinds of wavelength, each light all be unpolarized (unpolarised), vertical polarization or horizontal polarization, and with respect to optical axis with identical angular emission.
Among Fig. 1, blue light system (the unpolarized blue light of B=among the result, the blue light of BV=vertical polarization, the blue light of BH=horizontal polarization) is well suited for the detection of smog and dust, and (the R of the system of the ruddiness among the result, RV and RH) be suitable for the detection of dust equally, but more weak owing to lack when surveying the smoke particle of wide region to short grained response.All curve flocks together being higher than about 0.8 micron place among Fig. 1, and granularity is less than there being significant difference between 0.8 micron the curve.Realized the optimal separation of vertical blue light (BV) with horizontal ruddiness (RH).Can not separate these curves effectively at bigger diameter place.Because the phase place that the interaction between setted wavelength and the given granularity causes is eliminated and reinforcement has caused the periodicity in the curve (edge effect or resonance).
If change the combination of investigating wavelength 430nm (blue light) and 530nm (green glow) into, obtain result shown in Figure 2.Here, each curve map is more similar each other, and is difficult to these curves be separated being higher than about 0.5 micron place.
The selected wavelength that is used for illustrative is limited to the wavelength of commercial obtainable transmitter.Based on the information that is obtained in Fig. 2 (530nm), the result of orange-colored light (620nm) is similar to Fig. 1 (660nm).
The result of blue light (470nm) with infrared light (940nm) has been shown among Fig. 3.In Fig. 3, wavelength separated is an octave (octave) substantially.In the zone that is lower than 1 micron (the standard boundary line between smog and the dust), curve more clearly separates as can be seen.
Though this in addition wideer the wavelength that separates under performance monitor some advantages are arranged, available technology is a limiting factor at present.The receiver element that is used to survey scattered light is the PIN photodiode with blue response of raising.Owing to have peak response at 850nm place, its response is about 30% in 400nm and the reduction of 1050nm place, so for practicality, present transmitter wavelength is limited to this scope.Certainly, if can use another kind of receiver element, then can change the light wavelength of injecting particle to obtain bigger separation.
From above-mentioned conclusion as can be seen, in one embodiment of the invention, be used for wavelength that two transmitters shine particle to be detected should be preferably 400nm in the 500nm scope blue/UV and at the red light of 650nm in the 1050nm scope.
In another aspect of the present invention, have been found that if the result of received signal is contrasted mutually, for example, by compa-ratios or by subduing (promptly from a signal, deducting another signal) mutually, then can produce more reliable " triggering " or detectable signal, it shows the particle that existence has granularity interested in the application that is suitable at monitor of the present invention.Therefore, for example, if monitor of the present invention is set to " smog " monitor, so should be interested in bigger (dust) particle of smaller particles comparison.Therefore, the inventor recognizes, for smog monitor, for example, has been found that blue light has response to less and bigger granularity, and infrared light only has response to bigger particle.By obtaining the signal that is less than " infrared light " response signal based on " blue light " response signal, monitor can be arranged to granule is had higher relatively responsiveness, and bigger particle is had lower or zero responsiveness.
For example, Fig. 4 shows the result of (RH), the ruddiness unpolarized (R) that deduct ruddiness level (polarization) from blue light (B) data or vertical (polarization) data (RV) of ruddiness.The monitor that is provided with in these modes with higher sensitivity (with optimum sensitivity) from the B-RH combination in response to particle less than 1 micron.For fear of confusion, the result of BH and BV is not shown, but they are consistent.
In order to contrast, from B, deduct the result that GH, G and GV have produced Fig. 5 with Fig. 4.Although edge effect is very remarkable, the granularity of less relatively granularity still bigger (dust shape) is easier to distinguish.
Fig. 6 shows the result deduct IRH from B after.For clear, omitted other result.In addition, also show the data of some announcements of the particle mean size that is obtained for perfume, cotton lamp wicks, toasted bread and Portland cement (a kind of dust substitute).As can be seen, the monitor that is used to implement this subtraction has suitable sensitivity to conventional smog type, and can (relatively) repel dust on sizable degree.
According to the aspect of this subtraction, developed another aspect of the present invention, because can utilize the gain amplifier of reasonable structure that the suitable output signal of being used by alarm or other warning devices or system is provided.Below will disclose this aspect more fully.
Except top two kinds of disclosed wavelength,, just might not only discern granule and bulky grain, and can discern the particle of other (centre) sizes according to employed wavelength if can use the 3rd or other wavelength.
The binary channels design
According to an aspect of the present invention, provide another characteristic by using the binary channels design, promptly described herein by deduct A (object of reference) passage (or vice versa) from B (sample) passage, we can realize zero balance.Have been found that if monitor the background of chamber when changing in time this balance can not change significantly.The inventor have realized that when the monitoring chamber in long-time scope (i.e. the time that greatly prolongs by using dust filter) during aging or pollution, the background lighting level can change.The benefit that passage subtracts each other is, because the response of binary channels (particularly to dust deposit) is basic identical, so it influence self-cancelling, and this is feasible by the resulting output of adding circuit any change minimum in time.It should be noted that the signal that obtains by dust do not rely on its be gas carry one or its can stop from the teeth outwards.This for than the bigger any material one dust shape condensation product of dust or even (wall) wall set up equally.
According to maintenance standard, think this because the skew that goes to zero that pollution is caused is a valuable characteristic.
Signal level is analyzed
With reference to the application of smog monitor, the present invention is done further disclosure.But, it should be noted that the present invention is not limited in this application.
Traditional " optics " smoke detector that is installed on ceiling (ceiling) provides the sensitivity of the shading rate (obscuration) that is equivalent to about 10%/m (3%/ft) usually, is used for producing reporting to the police.The benchmark that the smoke detection of high sensitivity is set up need exceed the sensitivity of two orders of magnitude at least, is equivalent to have the alarm settings point that is lower than this level of 0.1%/m shading rate at whole range.Eccleston, King and Packham (Eccleston AJ, King NK and Packham DR, 1974:The Scattering Coefficient and MassConcentration of Smoke from some Australian Forest fires, APCAJournal, v24 noll) verified for eucalyptus forest fire smog, this 0.1%/m level is corresponding to visual range and the 0.24mg/m of 4km 3Smokescope.So high sensitivity can be carried out the detection of early stage pyrolysis, and provides the earliest warning to the potential fire in the buildings thus, has lower false alarm rate simultaneously.
Nowadays the utilization of most of high sensitivity smoke detector has optics (monitoring) chamber of infrared solid-state laser diode.The long wavelength of infrared light helps surveying dust and carries particle characteristics from the bigger gas of the smog suspended particle of some type fire, but poor during the very little particle that is contained in surveying other fire.Preferably traditional solid-state laser of operating under shorter visible wavelength is very expensive, perhaps can not operate reliably down in the environment temperature (60 ℃) that raises.In order to overcome these difficulties, in being applied to the preferred embodiments of the present invention of smog monitor, light emitting diode (LED) transmitter in visible spectrum blue light end (470nm) operation is used in decision.
To further specify as following, the monitor setting combines this set for become the blue emission device at 60 ° of angles with the indoor receiver element axle of optical monitoring.Monitor also comprises and being set to equal angular but the reference transmitter of the 940nm (infrared light) relative with the blue emitter level.Under 10 ° effective transmitters irradiation cone angle, this configuration provides best relatively setting, and it makes the sensitivity maximization of system, and makes simultaneously and may disturb the bias light of receiver element to minimize.
Smoke density (0.1%/m) for appointment, the particle that comprises the material mean grain size (have 1.8 actual geometric standard deviation) of (for example) 0.3 μ m, Weinert (WeinertD, 2002:Assessment of Light Scattering from Smoke Particles for aPrototype Duct-mounted Smoke Detector, unpublished) determined in employed monitor is provided with that this smog is about the order of magnitude of per unit irradiation 4.5E-8 by the signal intensity that is received with unpolarized blue-light source irradiation.It is also shown in Figure 3 to draw in the Weinert of 470nm and 940nm data.Crucially, this means that because from harmful residual reflection of monitoring locular wall, " background " light intensity that is received by element must be than low at least 8 orders of magnitude of emitter beam intensity, so that do not disturb the light signal that needs (scattering from smog).
In one form, specify the blue emission device under the drive current of 500mA, to have the luminous intensity of 40 candelas (cd).According to definition, the power level of 1cd is every sterad (sr) 1.464mW, so rated power is 1.464*40=58.6mW/sr.5 ° of half-angles are converted to 2 π (1-cos (5))=0.024sr, so output power is 58.6*0.024=1.4mW.By way of parenthesis, under this drive current, it is 4.0V that transmitter voltage is fallen, so if use 0.1% load cycle, then the power input to transmitter is 0.5*4.0*0.001=2.0mW, this is littler by 1% than its maximum power dissipation ratings.
Therefore, when impulse sender power was output as 1.4mW, the scattered light signal that employed setting is directed to element was 1.4*4.5E-8=6.3E-5 μ W.The irradiation of this level is drawn towards and focuses on and falls on the receiver element, and this element is the PIN photodiode in the receiver module.Specifying the sensitivity of this element is 0.2A/W when 400nm, becomes 0.31 μ A/ μ W when 470nm.Therefore, under the lens transmission of 92% (not coating) of appointment, the signal of being changed by elements illuminated is 0.31*6.3E-5*0.92=1.8E-5 μ A.
In one form, this receiver module comprises the pulse prime amplifier of three grades AC-coupling, and this pulse prime amplifier comprises that electric current is to electric pressure converter and two voltage amplifiers thereafter.This converter is to have differentially to be connected the PIN photodiode between the input of anti-phase and positive and to ignore the operational amplifier of resistance in series.Feedback resistor can be 3.9M (shunting with 3.9pF), so in the midband frequency, for the input signal of 1 μ A, will be 3.9E6*1E-6=3.9V/ μ A from the output of this one-level.In response to the element irradiation of appointment, output becomes 3.9*1.8E-5=7.0E-5V or 70 μ V.
In one form, ensuing two-stage is that to have midband gain separately be 10 operational amplifier, so the output of the receiver module under the irradiation of appointment should be 7.0mV.The standard gamut output level that is used for signal Processing can be 3V, so the main amplifier voltage gain will be 3/7.0E-3=429.Adopt two similar levels, it is 21 that this amplifier will need every grade gain.In fact have been found that every gain per stage is enough to be used for producing the sensitivity that meets the needed specified 0.1%/m of gamut at 17 o'clock.
Undoubtedly, granularity is all depended in the sensitivity of all smoke detectors, and significant standard will need to specify this size (or range of size).But, the perfect international benchmark of performance is the VESDA MK3 monitor that uses xenon light source to make by Vision Systems Australia company recently.In fact, this light source is comparable to the blue emission device because the spectral characteristic of xenon lamp, combine the spectral response of PIN photodiode and come from childhood suspended particle or molecule (it helps as 1/ λ 4The short wavelength) light scattering, determine that for the characteristic wavelength based on the benchmark of the monitor of xenon be 470nm, identical with the blue emission device.For this reason, can use reliable gas to be used as standard (this is impossible to the detector based on infrared laser) continuously such as nitrogen and FM200.
As mentioned above, monitor adopts two transmitters of operating under different wave length.With reference to Fig. 3, for bigger particle (〉 1 μ), design object is to produce identical signal level at the element place by infrared signal, this is with identical to the situation of blue light signal.Under the infrared light wavelength of 940nm, receiver element has the sensitivity of 0.55 μ A/ μ W (can compare with 0.31 μ A/ μ W under 470nm).Owing to keep 92% at 940nm place lens transmission, again because all dependent equations all are linear, and geometric figure is relatively uniform, so the infrared transmitter output power is reduced by the coefficient of 0.31/0.55=0.56.Because under the electric current of 500mA, infrared transmitter has the power level of 343mW/sr (can compare with the 58.6mW/sr of blue emission device), so the needed drive current of infrared transmitter becomes 500*0.56*58.6/343=48mA.If the use polarizing filter then needs to increase this drive current, so that overcome the loss in this optical filter.
Be provided with down in needed transmitter driving, as seeing, all should be in the level of roughly the same (very low) for any one transmitter for the little background signal that causes by integrated reflection from the monitoring locular wall from receiver element.This just needs the reflection (or absorption) of monitoring locular wall to be independent of employed difference of wavelength to a great extent.Therefore, during without any smog, the differential voltage between the binary channels output should approach zero (perhaps can be adjusted to like this) in the monitoring chamber.
By smog being introduced the monitoring chamber, the voltage on each passage all should increase, but the differential voltage between passage may be often non-vanishing.This differential voltage provides the indication of gas being carried particle characteristics.Fig. 6 shows resulting sensitivity when deducting the infrared light passage from blue channel.This result can be used to highlight the existence less than the particle of 1 μ mass median diameter.Comprise some straight lines among Fig. 6, consistent with the publish data of the mass median diameter of the particle that produces by some current materials (Portland cement " dust ", toasted bread, cotton lamp wicks and perfume).Differential voltage should be zero or negative value slightly in first example (big particle), but in other three examples (little particle) significantly be on the occasion of.This shows the possibility of distinguishing dust in the good smoke detection of maintenance.
Granularity in the smog suspended particle can change according to the flow conditions of employed incendiary agent, temperature and period (cycle) and decision oxygen supply, cooling and smog dilution substantially.In Fig. 7, will be from Cleary, Weinert and Mulholland (Cleary TG, Weinert, DW and Mulholland GW, 2001:Moment Method of obtainingParticle Size Measures of Test Smokes, NIST) data are averaged to make the curve of suspended particle granularity, this suspended particle is by four kinds of incendiary agents, and promptly edible oil (glass dish on the electric furnace), toasted bread (baking box), polyurethane foam plastics (rough burning or smoulder) and beech wooden unit (electric furnace) produce.As can be seen, under every kind of situation, originally average particle very little, and the size increase falls then along with the incendiary agent full consumption.As summary, we can say that short grained detection is very important for the warning as far as possible the earliest of incipient fire.Other data show that the suspended particle mass concentration reaches mxm. at the latter half in each cycle of being drawn, and descend endways.
Fig. 8 provides the contrast widely to twin-channel relative response, and expectation is arranged by the granularity of announcing in proper order for big quantity of material.Here, make the infrared transmitter signal reduce the response criteriaization that makes Portland cement (dust substitute) by 0.64 coefficient.Data (the Bankston etc. of pesudotsuga taxifolia and rigid polyurethane; Bankston CP, Zinn BT, Browner RF and Powell EA, 1981:Aspects of theMechanisms of Smoke Generation by Burning Materials, Combustionand Flame no 41 pp273-292) show the progress of three different phases of radiation heat rate of release, it should produce corresponding differential voltage signal.
Generally and because foregoing reason, can be with Fig. 8 as based on standard xenon and present contrast based on the expected performance between (infrared light) detector of laser.
In addition, with regard to the binary channels monitor, Fig. 8 confirms to compare with these infrared eyes and has improved the sensitivity (improving 4 or 5 times) that comprises pyrolysis and unburnt incipient fire accident and the while is greatly reduced the possibility to the sensitivity of the false alarm that is derived from dust.This means does not need dust filter.In contrast, expectation is filtered with dust and is made minimize contamination, and makes the maintenance period of monitor and total mission life maximization thus.Suppose that the good filtrator of dust also can catch smog, then can utilize the dust resolving ability to avoid the undesirable false alarm that causes by the inevitable a small amount of dust by the actual filtration device.
And, because passage A mainly responds dust, therefore can to (with the moon or year calculate) in the whole time from the output of passage A quadrature (accumulative total), be used for writing down monitoring chamber and filter cell actual exposed when being different from smog to dust, thus can according to (often uncertain) surrounding environment determine and predict maintenance shop every.For example, the maintenance shop that can determine dust filter based on the number of times of accumulative total or the detection dust reading that calculates every.In case counting meets or exceeds a predetermined threshold value, the maintenance indicator will light or otherwise be communicated with.Preferably, the maintenance indicator circuit should be quadratured to actual dust level and lasting cycle thereof.
Logarithm output
As mentioned above, for the wide output area of sensitivity is provided, the detector of prior art is provided for the smokescope data are offered the analog-digital converter (ADC) of microprocessor.Through careful design, utilize all capacity of ADC to represent maximum smokescope, for example (usually) 20%/m basically.The ADC that under 8 bit resolutions, operates of great use, 10 bits or bigger ADC are then comparatively expensive, and need bigger microprocessor.The ADC that has been found that 10 bits allows the concentration of this 20%/m is divided into 2 10=1024 levels, the increment of each grade expression 20/1024=0.02%/m.So at different levels is 0,0.02,0.04,0.06 etc., and be not used in the possibility of meticulousr increment.When hanging down smokescope, it is considered to very coarse resolution, makes to be difficult to be provided with subtly alarm threshold value.But when high smokescope, the resolution of 0.02%/m is with regard to unnecessary one for example, even there is the ability that alarm threshold value is set at 10.00%/m or 10.02%/m also not have benefit.So think that the resolution of detector of prior art is too coarse when low smokescope, and too meticulous when high smokescope.
Yet, according to this aspect of the invention, overcome the defective of above-mentioned these prior aries by the output area that logarithm or decile are provided.According to the present invention, have been found that resolution is suitable for given smokescope, that is, meticulous and coarse during in high smokescope when low smokescope.As exemplified, for the present invention, by using the logarithm output area, when low smokescope can 0.010 or 0.011%/m place set alarm threshold value, and when high smokescope, can be equally easily at 10%/m or 11%/m place setting alarm threshold value.
In other words, owing to recognize that smog is a kind of extremely variable material, do not have any benefit and the measurement of its density (concentration) is reached the precision that is higher than 2 position effective digitals, therefore adopt logarithm output to provide favourable sensitivity resolution the smokescope scope and/or the threshold setting of whole broad.
The smog test result
Utilize smoke monitoring equipment that the present invention is configured to and construct and assemble, thereby carried out a series of tracking according to the disclosure of above-mentioned signal level analysis.Monitor is installed on the ventilating duct of 200mm diameter, and detector (probe) is inserted this pipeline, to gather air sample through this pipeline.Inlet fan keeps continuous relatively flowing in the pipeline, and guarantees that gas carries particle and thoroughly mixes with the fresh air that enters.The outlet of pipeline is discharged by flue.To be placed on fan and entrance place at about 350 ℃ of electric furnaces of operating down, and make and a spot of incendiary agent sample can be placed on the electric furnace.
Because smog is carried secretly and with mix by the main fresh air stream that is drawn into continuously in the testing laboratory in the pipeline, this device can take place to dilute quite significantly.This situation is used for shielded environment that is virtually reality like reality, expects that the initial stage that fire is in early days grown up has the dilution level of height in this environment.Several different incendiary agent samples are heated on electric furnace to produce the smog suspended particle respectively.In addition, also assessed without electric furnace but by being stirred in some dust samples that fan and entrance place discharge.
Measure the output of two monitor passage A and B, carry particle and be introduced into the variation that exceeds stationary state (cleaned air) after the monitor to be provided at gas.
Observe various incendiary agent types and produce the smog suspended particle with different speed and concentration.When heating and consuming various incendiary agent, expection suspended particle granularity time to time change, the relevant output from passage A and B should correspondingly change thus.Fig. 9 show the ratio that is represented as passage A output, in response to some sources of particles ('s to detecting after stable and transient revises) channel B output.These data represent it is in order to illustrate that included different gas carries particle density (suppose us pay close attention to now be granularity) with ratio.The length of each horizontal bar and location tables are shown in the ratio of the scope that takes place during each tracking test.Under a lot of situations, ratio increases to mxm. very soon, slowly descends then.Under some situations, ratio is increasing once more than the low value place after one-period.More viewed such models (signal) are significantly bimodal.
Fig. 9 also shows the relative sensitivity (with the apparent series arrangement of particle mean size) of monitor to these incendiary agent sources and dust source.Correspondingly, originally nylon pipeline produces minimum particle (peak ratio 5.3).After test was carried out half, ratio slowly descended, and incendiary agent melts on electric furnace and the generation suspended particle in the long time veritably.Styrofoam has similar result.Downward again incendiary agent is easy to burn and produce solid carbonaceous residue in the chart.
By the heating wire test that the long PVC insulated wire of 2m constitutes, this insulated wire heats by the high electric current of being carried by 2V AC " scope " transformer, causes the electric heating cable of crossing of early stage pyrolysis with simulation.
The result of solder resin is from the fusing of short resin-core solder of length, and its position in table shows and produced sizable particle (high-melting-point droplet).
The results abnormity of steam is because the output reading that obtains from the source of heating up water of seething with excitement has the very little order of magnitude and can not produce alarm condition, but this ratio is included in the granularity that graph bottom is provided with.On the contrary, under the situation in various dust source (comprising talcum powder), other all sources all produces big output reading, and has only passage output ratio less.
Between smog suspended particle and dust, obviously there is the huge difference that produces based on granularity, so might in producing alarm procedure, utilize present embodiment to distinguish report to the police needed mist source and unwanted dust source.
Ratio near one situation under, can be understood as and from channel B (as blue light), deduct passage A and (will cause reducing largely reading as infrared light, thereby can avoid undesirable warning of causing by these sources.Ratio far above one situation under, from channel B, deduct passage A and still can cause produce reporting to the police.Though subtraction process can reduce the output of monitor to some smog type really, in fact also can avoid undesirable warning of causing by the dust source, allow monitor under than the higher sensitivity of other situations, to operate.
And, think that these results are consistent with the data of the multiple incendiary agent of being announced of expression, quite little by first particle that pyrolysis discharged.Therefore, the type of employed monitor can provide the very early time alarm of pyrolysis here.
Circuit is described
Figure 10 has schematically illustrated the of the present invention a kind of form that is used to survey smog with block scheme.The a pair of optical transmitting set 1 of drives and 2, each transmitter has different wavelength (color) and/or polarization characteristic.Each transmitter of drive to be to provide have the short extended period light pulse of (for example 0.4ms), alternatively with the interval (providing) of (for example) 150ms and 350ms.Can make air quality upgrade twice p.s. like this, become the height sampling turnover rate that matches with low power consumption.
Scattering (dispersing) the photovalve (not shown) that are received in the device module 4 of the part light that carries particle of the gas by monitoring chamber 3 certainly receives.In receiver module 4, amplify this signal, and be sent to main amplifier 5 with gain controller 6.Amplifying signal is then by Discr. (frequency discriminator) (comprising sampling of a pair of synchroprobe 7,8 and a pair of buffering and holding circuit 9,10), this Discr. will be derived from the Signal Separation of two respective transmitter in binary channels, represent passage A with numeral 9, numeral 10 expression channel B.Binary channels provides the information about grain type in the air.Passage A is especially in response to dust particle, and channel B is also a bit responsive to dust mainly to the smog sensitivity.This is that it to a certain extent can be overlapping because dust and smoke particle cover a wide range of size separately.Therefore in circuit subsequently, dependence totalizer 11 deducts the dust reading of passage A from the smog reading of channel B, obtains only providing basically the indicator signal of smoke density (concentration).
This smoke density signal is applied to the responsive circuit 12 of threshold value, and this circuit is operated a series of three lamps and relay 13 in response to the grade of the fire hazard that is detected.These lamps and relay for example are expressed as: A1 (warning or 1 grade), A2 (movable or 2 grades) and A3 (fire or 3 grades).Usually these three alarm level represent that smoke density is about as much as 0.03,0.06 and the shading rate of 0.10%/m,, should be appreciated that signal and set and can be configured to be suitable for application-specific of the present invention although monitor can be adjusted into other settings.
In addition, being used for expression from the direct output 14 of passage A is independent of the smokescope grade when the dust grade is higher.This can also help test, test working and demonstration.This output shows also when this monitor is in the process of identification dust.
Additional lamp and relay 13 can be set to be applied to " automatic anti-fault (fail-safe) " circuit of totalizer 11, so that can not provide fault alarm under the situation with enough sensitivity true(-)runnings at monitor.Simulation output from totalizer 11 can also be provided the teleprocessing of fault and alarm annunciation.Alternatively optional, can provide this simulation output by from passage A and B each, to allow to carry out the processing of remote signal analysis and fault and alarm annunciation.
Clock signal generator (clock generator) 15 can provide suitable timing signal when needed, and power unit 16 can be given distributing electric power the various piece of circuit under appropriate voltage.
When running into very high smog or dust concentration, be necessary from the output signal of Discr. passage is unsaturated.This saturated information that can lose about the relative signal level that produces by two transmitters, thus discriminant function suppressed.At first, amplifier is provided with big " head room (headroom) ", makes it can realize the full scale running when the semi-saturation of (for example) signal level.Secondly, provide automatic gain controller.To feed back to gain control from the DC output voltage of discriminator passage, to guarantee can not reach capacity concentration.
Gain controller
With reference to Figure 11, determine the midband gain of operational amplifier by the ratio of feedback resistance and input resistance.With regard to the IC3a among Figure 11, voltage gain is R4/R3, and with regard to IC3b, voltage gain is R6/R5.Determine the high-frequency breakpoint by C4R4 and C6R6, and determine the low frequency breakpoint by C1 (R1/R2), C3R3 and C5R5.Amplifier is the DC coupling, and sets the DC bias voltage by R1 and R2.
Gain control IC4 is usually included in closely-coupled LDR (photoresistance) and LED (light emitting diode) in the light tight box.LDR provides adjustable resistance, and its value determines by the electric current of LED by carrying, this LED by R7 from external control.When not having electric current to pass through R7, the resistance of LDR is in fact infinitely great, and is 10mA during to 20mA at electric current, and resistance is reduced to 10k Ω in the scope of 100k Ω.Common this LDR can stride across R4 or R6 connects.This advantage in operation is to have increased high-frequency breakpoint (C4R4 or C6R6), (upsetting) the desired frequency response and the phase propetry of amplifier thereby strengthen.In addition, have been found that this device produces the gain control of incomplete dynamic range.
Because two-stage circuit is noninverting to amplifying signal, therefore the LDR from the output of the second level (IC3b) might be connected to the input of the first order (IC3a).This has greatly increased available effective dynamic range.And when IC4 came into force, breakpoint C4R4 and C6R6 were unaffected.
Current drives R7 is derived from the sample and the sustaining voltage signal (high step-down) of passage A and channel B, by Zener diode (voltage stabilizing diode) D5 and D6, just comes into effect when signal level is quite big to guarantee the gain control action.
Importantly, the characteristic of LDR, LED and Zener diode combination neither sudden change neither be linear.It is non-linear, has the effect that the log gain function is provided.Sudden change in the gain can cause instability or irregular behavior, because high signal level can cause the unexpected reduction of gain, this can cause the unexpected reduction of output, and this can reduce the driving to IC4, thereby causes that gain increases once more.And this can make the warning output relay vibrate.Nonlinear Design has considered that the less output when input reaches high level increases, and the control of wide dynamic range is provided.
Corresponding to the highest alarm threshold value (" fire "), the standard full scale sensitivity of monitor is equivalent to the shading rate of 0.1%/m, and available middle alarm threshold value is lower than this level.By utilizing this log characteristic, just may change the output threshold value of reporting to the police being set, so that the warning of higher level can be in non-linear domain.In this way, can provide enough resolution, so that provide the first order to report to the police (" warning ") under low-down smoke density (for example 0.01%/m), and the warning of highest level can reach 1%/m, 10%/m or even higher.
Monitoring chamber optics
Figure 12 shows the ray diagram of transmitter, and this transmitter moves under different wavelength and/or polarization.For clarity sake, in center 1201, a left side or right terminal 1202 the position of light beam the sample ray is shown according to ray.Alternatively optional, in fact operate these light beams in the duration at short pulse.As can be seen, light beam forms by the emitter 1203,1204 that has lens, and by diaphragm 1205,1206 restrictions, so that pass center, monitored area or the area 1207 of monitoring chamber.If just by this zone 1207, then these particles make the sub-fraction scattering of beam energy to a plurality of directions for smog or dust.The part scattering of this energy is to the main direction that receives diaphragm 1208, and scatters to lens 1209 thus, and these lens are with on the photoelectric cell of these energy focusings in the receiver module 1210.It should be noted that and in this path, removed middle diaphragm from, can incide lens by diaphragm reflection in the middle of these because reflect the diffused light that also therefore derives from inappropriate direction by monitoring chamber member.
Direct beam 1201,1202 enters absorbing path 1211 afterwards, and the multipath reflection that is derived from high absorption wall 1212 in this absorbing path has consumed luminous energy.This channels designs is used for optical multiple reflector is guided into the far-end of passage 1213, so that repeatedly reflection took place before any residual light occurs.The residual to the interference of scattering from the light of smog or dust particle of initial light beam avoided in this absorption and for the combination of the geometric configuration of the key light door screen of monitoring chamber and light beam diaphragm.
Ray 1214 expression makes zone to the photoelectric cell sensitivity by receiver lens and key light door screen.As can be seen, this sensitizing range concentrates in the monitored area 1207, but photoelectric cell 1210 keeps sensitivity along exceeding this regional optical axis.The sensitivity of this expansion is limited by the uptake zone 1215 at monitoring chamber far-end.This purpose of design is to guarantee that the insignificant luminous energy from transmitter 1203,1204 can drop on this uptake zone, and this insignificant light is easy to disturb the light of particle institute scattering.The light of this harmful (not wishing) is mainly derived from the reflection of transmitter diaphragm 1205,1206.Cover (shielding) to this absorption region makes this stray light minimize with the combination that from this zone diffused light is reflected away.In addition, the wall of absorption region preferably is colored as black, to absorb incident light.
Figure 13 shows typically, reflects the harmful ray that produces by transmitter diaphragm 1205,1206, and this ray is prevented from arriving absorption region, center 1215.This figure also comprises and passes key light door screen 1217 and absorbed harm ray 1216 in receiving cable 1218.In addition, as shown in the figure, the harm ray 1219 that reflects autonomous diaphragm 1217 focuses on outside the photronic central shaft that departs from the receiver module 1210, and is avoided by the photoelectric cell (shown in 1401 among Figure 14) in the receiver module 1210.
The combination of all these methods is used to avoid scattering is carried from gas the interference of the light of particle.The optical density of scattering is hanged down 100,000,000 times than the light of transmitter usually, can recognize the difficulty of this task thus.
Referring again to Figure 12, be considered to monitor indoor first order brightness from the brightness in the tapered centre district of the light 1202 of transmitter.This light is drawn towards absorbing path 1211, is effectively absorbed after multipath reflection along this light of this passage.In the outside of this center cone angle the second level brightness 1220 that optical device and the reflection of transmitter diaphragm by transmitter cause.Therefore, think that whole transmitter diaphragm zone must be bright on a plurality of directions.Correspondingly, must cover from the visual angle transmitter diaphragm of receiver or lens stop, this can realize by the location of key light door screen 1217.In order to realize this covering, by from the outermost end of transmitter diaphragm 1205,1206, to key light door screen 1217 in terminal, set the geometric configuration of monitoring chamber to the straight line 1221 (shown in broken lines among Figure 13) of the outermost end of lens stop 1222 again.The purpose of supposing embodiments of the invention is the monitor that preparation has minimum useful size and the highest as far as possible sensitivity, thinks that then this geometric configuration is a definite geometric configuration.
Owing to be in the outside of center emission awl 1202, thereby key light door screen 1217 is exposed in the light from the second level brightness 1220 of transmitter diaphragm 1203,1204.Therefore, key light door screen 1217 can be at the light of a plurality of direction reflection third level brightness 1219.It should be noted that in this discussion " the brightness order of magnitude " not necessarily is meant ten times.Suppose that black surface can absorb 99% incident light, only reflect 1%, and this 1% scattering that is caused by non-mirror reflection again further reduces, then the order of magnitude that reduces of brightness may be 1000 times or more.Thus, the third level of brightness is not accurate measured value, and relative expression only is provided.The sub-fraction of this third level brightness light 1219 will be reflected to lens stop 1208 and lens 1209.As shown in figure 14, lens 1209 will focus on this harmful light 1219 that departs from receiver element 1210 central shafts, and be received device diaphragm 1401 and stop.The use of the key light door screen of biconvex lens, long focal length and broad can make the harm ray (the off-center axle) of the autonomous diaphragm 1217 of reflection fall on the side of receiver element 1210, and can be received device diaphragm 1401 and weaken.
Can expect to be necessary that the focusing to lens controls comparatively accurately, so that the separating of the light of the light that control does not need (being harmful to) and needs.A kind of non-spherical lens 1501 (as shown in figure 15) with shorter focal length has been proposed.This lens provide on the whole surface of receiver element the accurate control that focuses on, and have avoided spherical aberration and have formed the image with photograph quality.Figure 15 shows the operation of this lens 1501 in focusing on scattered light, and this scattered light is received from the particle that detects in monitored area 1207 (Figure 12).Figure 15 also shows the position of lens 1501 with respect to key light door screen 1217 and element 1210.Yet Figure 16 shows a part of utilizing this non-spherical lens to reflect the harmful light of autonomous diaphragm and drops on the element.This can disturb the signal that needs.
Return Figure 12, used thicker biconvex lens (having two convex surfaces), and in Figure 14 and Figure 17, illustrated in greater detail this convex lens.As shown in figure 14, because harmful light 1219 is from the direction arrival of off-center axle, so the spherical aberration of such lens 1402 helps to improve the separation of these two groups of light.By using long focal length (and having been found that this separation is proportional with focal length) further to promote this to separate.In Figure 17, as can be seen, might use biconvex lens 1402, because need not form accurate image, and only need collected light, so focus point is important not as good as the light channel that is comprised at receiver element 1210 places as photo.Like this, the geometric configuration of receiver element 1210 and lens 1402 is arranged so that preferably the scattered light from the maximum of the particle that is detected can drop on the receiver element (as shown in the figure, wherein light has illuminated the whole surface of element 1210 basically), simultaneously unwanted light or stopped by above-mentioned receiver diaphragm 1401 perhaps is allowed to the side by this element.
Fluid dynamics
From the fluid dynamics viewpoint, the design of monitoring chamber is very important.One embodiment of the present of invention comprise the micro-tube detector, are used for acquisition stream and cross air continuous a small amount of of ventilating duct but representational sample, and for example, the inventor is at the detector disclosed in the common unsettled U.S. Patent application 2003/0011770.
With reference to Figure 13, from environment, gather to be inhaled into monitoring of the present invention indoor by entering the mouth 1301 such as the fluid sample of air, flow through detecting chamber and monitored area 1207 (Figure 12), and flow out through exporting 1302.This just might use and can effectively remove the bigger filtrator 1303 of dust in the running for a long time, and can not cause significant loss in head (pressure drop).Preferred filter type is open cell foam filtrator macropore, that have the big degree of depth in using.This filter design is littler at least 10 times than the average pore size of filtrator usually with the minimum dust particle that removes.The removal that realizes dust is the result of Brownian movement (Rapid Thermal vibration), and by Brownian movement, dust particle shows as the big manyfold of physical size that seems than them.When filtrator that fluid is flowed through dark, get rid of to statistical dust, make that all dust that are considered to be harmful to just were removed before filter outlet 1314 flows out at fluid basically.It is minimum to have been found that this can make at the dust of the indoor accumulation of monitoring (pollution), thereby has greatly prolonged maintenance period.Yet the hatch frame of filtrator has avoided occurring in the serious problems in the suction-type smoke detector of prior art, promptly increases the sensitivity that smoke particle removes in time and has reduced.And this filtrator is following type: the loss in head in the filtrator does not have dust with filter load and increases significantly.
Usually, smoke particle exists in 0.01 micron to 1 micron scope, and the dust-loaded soil particle of gas exists in 1 micron to 100 microns scope.But, overlap at 1 micron boundary, because the dust particle of occurring in nature minimum is littler than the smoke particle of possibility maximum.Therefore, think that filtrator should be that good suction cleaner is inappropriate.For fear of the sensitivity of smog is reduced, the dust particle of fraction must be therefore and by filtrator, and this needs otherwise (as hereinafter disclosed) to regulate.
All there is mirror image fan diffuser 1312,1313 on every limit of filtrator 1303.The exit face of filtrator is guided fan diffuser 1313 into, and this fan diffuser fluid of recombinating effectively makes fluid carry out 90 ° and turns to, and fluid is caused passage 1304.In a preferred embodiment of the invention, this channel narrows is that cross-sectional area is still big 5 times than induction pipe, thereby keeps low-down loss, but the local air speed ratio is fast about 8 times of the speed at exit face 1314 places of filtrator.
In a preferred embodiment, 1305,1306, one sensing equipments 1306 of two sensing equipments can be installed at filter outlet, and a sensing equipment 1305 is in this stenosis area 1304.In this set, sensor 1306 is subjected to from the influence of the airflow of the suitable low speed of filtrator outflow, so that sensor seldom cools off.Can further prevent sensing 1306 coolings by means of shroud 1307.On the contrary, sensor 1305 is exposed in the airflow of obvious higher rate comparatively fully, and therefore ratio sensor 1306 is easier to cooling.Two sensors 1305,1306 preferably are exposed to identical ambient air temperature.Can preferably use and have the dependent matching unit of known temperature, the different cooldown rate that causes by the different air velocity that they were exposed to thus, can be used for producing the different voltage of striding each sensor, thereby the mensuration of air speed is provided in the mode that is independent of ambient air temperature to a great extent.
Sensor can be a U.S. Pat 4,781, the type disclosed in 065, and still, the location of sensor is exclusive different in device of the present invention.
Equally, in this device, sensor is exposed in the air-flow after air communication is crossed dust filter 1303, therefore makes to pollute minimum.Pollution can influence the cooling characteristics of sensor 1305,1306, reduces the accuracy of airflow detection line thus.
Fluid then enters another fan diffuser 1308, and it also is the light absorption passage 1308 that is used for transmitter 1203 (Figure 12).When airflow arrives the inlet of absorbing path 1308, make its speed slack-off to littler about 25 times than the speed at inlet tube place to the change of its travel direction.Therefore, air-flow through passage 1308, pass monitored area 1207 (Fig. 1 2) and enter in the process of second channel 1309 and only cause very little loss.Because the speed here is slower, any residue dust soil particle all less on quantity and size that can exist in air-flow (because filtrator 1303) has low-down momentum, therefore can not make in its suspension from fluid by centrifugal force to throw away, make that thus the potentially contaminated in 1207 environs of monitored area minimizes.Under situation about existing the centrifuging trend of dust particle, the direction of its momentum is to make these particles deflection harmlessly and away from the direction of key light door screen 1217.
Airflow is inhaled into second absorbing path 1309, and is accelerated gradually and effectively by diffusion, thereby becomes coupling waste gas outlet 1302.As the above US4 that quotes, described in 781,065, then with waste gas, for example dust turns back to the environment of sampling effectively.
Explained understand air-flow as a kind of mode that makes minimization of loss and promote laminar flow how by a series of stage.Therefore, very effectively also purified the monitoring chamber apace with the ozone sample, and only kept the smog of minute quantity.Although big cross-sectional area causes low local speed, proved that the monitoring chamber component is very rapidly to the response that smokescope changes, and be suitable for the purpose that smoke monitoring is reported to the police.
Owing in monitor of the present invention, have only very little pressure drop, so absolute pressure close with pipe interior all of any position in the monitor.Owing between the surrounding environment of pipe interior and placement monitor big pressure reduction can be arranged, so monitor must keep good pressure seal to avoid the leakage of any position.Design by the monitoring chamber makes the minimizing possibility of leakage, and it comprises similar half that two planes connect plain flange 1310 one by one.Therefore, only need a flat shim to be used for sealing the monitoring chamber.In one embodiment, be preferably thick sealing polyfoam pad,, thereby overcome issuable a small amount of bending and buckling deformation in the injection mo(u)lding because it is easy to adapt to the variation of monitoring indoor Flange Plane.By prolonging, pad is stashed and will monitor the zone of chamber, particularly zone near monitored area 1207 to the light absorpting ability sensitivity of monitoring locular wall on the little limits 1311 of the center of two monitoring chamber half ones joint overlap joint.Only on these limits, this has greatly simplified for the needs of making the interfacing part plane actual contact between two and half ones of preferred monitoring chamber.
The use of pipeline detector has been discussed in the description of front principle, and still, in other embodiment of the present invention, detector can be replaced to obtain fluid sample to be monitored, for example air with other devices.This other device (at US4, disclosed in 781,065) can be the Venturi tube device in the small-bore pipeline of for example 20mm diameter.This pipeline can be connected in the suction pump or fan (aspirator) that places Venturi tube upstream or downstream.If place the downstream, then a plurality of monitors can be connected in single aspirator.In the upstream of each monitor, small-bore pipeline may extend into whole fire zone (fire-fighting district).Sampling pipe can be set to extend to interior mesh duct or the branch-like pipeline in fluid mass or area to be monitored or that survey.Each described pipeline can comprise lateral.Each described pipeline and lateral can comprise a plurality of apertures, so that near the air each hole is drawn in the pipeline.From the component of the air sample in all these holes then by intermittently or be drawn into Venturi tube relatively continuously.Venturi tube is set makes the part air in the pipeline be drawn through monitor, so that before the monitor air-flow turns back to pipeline, can sense the existence of smog or dust.All then air are inhaled into aspirator and discharge.
It should be noted that preferably under the situation of pipeline detector or Venturi tube, only some available air passes through monitor.This part air or air sample contain smog and/or the dust with the main fluid equal densities.But, minimize by making the fluid that flows through monitor modestly, can make the dust deposit speed in the dust filter reduce to minimum, thereby make maintenance shop, and not influence the sensitivity of monitor every maximization.
In another optional embodiment of the present invention, replace Venturi tube, monitor can be directly connected in small-bore pipe such as the 5mm internal diameter.This is suitable for moving the short distance such as several meters.In this case, whole airflow can pass through monitor, but flow velocity can be low, therefore should not necessarily can influence reserve maintenance period.In order to realize the fast response time of small-bore pipe on long distance, pressure drop will be very high, is forced to use the aspirator with high pressure and high energy consumption
