The microbial electrochemical sensor testing system of the embodiment of the invention has at least the following advantages: 1. the method can be combined with a protection device to effectively remove bubbles at the front end of the microbial electrochemical sensor before and during the test, has no capacity expansion and bubble discharge capacity, solves the problem that the electric signal is influenced by bubbles, further improves the stability of the microbial electrochemical sensor, prolongs the service life of the microbial electrochemical sensor and realizes the online long-term stable monitoring of the water biotoxicity; 2. the bubble sensor is suitable for identifying whether the bubble amount in the pipeline between the microbial electrochemical sensor and the second stop valve exceeds a preset critical value, when the bubble sensor identifies that the bubble amount in the pipeline between the microbial electrochemical sensor and the second stop valve is not lower than a signal of the preset critical value, the bubble sensor indicates that the rear end of the microbial electrochemical sensor possibly has air leakage and is possibly broken, thereby the bubble sensor can be used for identifying whether the bubble amount in the pipeline between the microbial electrochemical sensor and the second stop valve exceeds the preset critical value, and judging whether the microbial electrochemical sensor is possibly broken or not based on the identified signal, and whether the power pump and the second stop valve are required to be closed or not, so that the microbial electrochemical sensor is prevented from leaking liquid and is protected; 3. the liquid level sensor can be used for judging the liquid level position in the liquid storage cavity and judging whether liquid is required to be replenished into the liquid storage cavity or whether the exhaust operation is required to be carried out by combining the protection device or not based on the identification result; 4. the protection device is convenient to clean and change liquid; 5. the pipeline 35 stretches into the liquid storage cavity, and the outlet of the pipeline 35 is lower than the first liquid level sensor, so that liquid can be prevented from being splashed or blown for stirring.
As understood with reference to fig. 1 or 2, specific operations for effectively removing bubbles from the front end of the microbial electrochemical sensor before and during testing in conjunction with the protection device 30 according to an embodiment of the present invention may include:
(i) Closing the second stop valve 40b, opening the first stop valve 40a, switching the first three-way valve 50 to the first discharge end 52, switching the input end of the power pump 20 to the reagent inlet 14 or the water sample inlet 13 to be tested through a plurality of valves 16 (according to actual test requirements), and starting the power pump 20 to pump the reagent into the liquid storage cavity 31 or respectively pump the reagent and the water sample to be tested into the liquid storage cavity 31; when the second liquid level sensor 34 recognizes that the liquid level of the liquid storage cavity 31 reaches the signal of the preset maximum liquid injection line, the first stop valve 40a is closed; (ii) Switching the first three-way valve 50 to the first waste end 53 to discharge the gas in the line between the protection device 30 and the first three-way valve 50; (iii) Closing the power pump 20, switching the first three-way valve 50 to the first discharge end 52, opening the second stop valve 40b, and switching the second three-way valve 70 to the second waste end 73; activating the power pump 20 to displace the liquid in the microbial electrochemical sensor 60; (iv) Closing the power pump 20, switching the input end of the power pump 20 to the circulating liquid inlet 15 through the plurality of valves 16, and switching the second three-way valve 70 to the second discharge end 72; the power pump 20 is started, and the culture is circulated.
The operation can effectively remove bubbles at the front end of the microbial electrochemical sensor before testing. For the bubbles generated during the test, the bubbles can be discharged based on the signal identified by the first liquid level sensor 33, specifically, in step (iv), when the first liquid level sensor 33 identifies that the liquid level of the liquid storage cavity 31 reaches the signal of the preset exhaust liquid level line, the power pump 20 is turned off, and the operations of steps (i) - (iv) are repeated. In the testing process, when the front end of the pipeline has bubbles or the reagent is not sucked, the bubbles stay at the upper end position of the liquid level, the liquid level in the liquid storage cavity 31 in the protection device 30 can be reduced, but the testing is not influenced at this time, when the liquid level is reduced to the first liquid level sensor 33, the first liquid level sensor 33 recognizes the signal, and the operation of filling the reagent or the operation of filling the reagent and the water sample to be tested is repeated again, so that the bubbles and the accumulated air can be removed from the air outlet 32, the bubbles are prevented from entering the microbial electrochemical sensor 60, the stability of the microbial electrochemical sensor 60 is maintained, and the stability and the accuracy of the testing result are further ensured. In addition, when the bubble sensor 80 recognizes a signal that the amount of bubbles in the pipe line between the microbial electrochemical sensor 60 and the second shut-off valve 40b is not lower than a preset critical value (recognition of the signal indicates that there is a possibility of gas leakage and disconnection at the rear end of the microbial electrochemical sensor), it is judged that the microbial electrochemical sensor 60 is in a state where protection is required, at this time, the power pump 20 and the second shut-off valve 40b may be closed, the operation may be stopped (to take corresponding measures against the problem), the sensor may be protected and alarm may be given, the microbial electrochemical sensor may be prevented from leaking, and the microbial electrochemical sensor may be protected. Alternatively, the bubble sensor 80 may be connected with an alarm device configured to emit an alarm signal when the bubble sensor 80 recognizes that the amount of bubbles in the pipe between the microbial electrochemical sensor 60 and the second shut-off valve 40b is not lower than a preset critical value, which may be an indicator lamp and/or an alarm sound.
