Description

Vorrichtung zum Anzeigen brennbarer Gase, bei der eine katalytische Verbrennung an einem elektrisch beheizten Draht stattfindet. Es ist bekannt, brennbare Bestan,Iteile in Gasen dadurch nachzuweisen, daß inan sie an einem elektrisch erhitzten, katalytisch wirkenlai Draht vorbeiführt, dessen Temperatur durch die eintretende Verbrennung erhö lit wir 1. Infolgedessen wächst sein elektrischer Widerstand, dor in einer Wheatätcnesolieii Brücke Lestimnit «-irl. Eine Vorrichtung dieser _-#rt ist iil der Z:ichnung schematisch dargestellt. Der erhitzte Draht i liegt in einer 1leß'kaininer 2, @hirch die das zu prüfende Gas vermittels der Rohranschlüsse 3 und d hindurcligeführt wir 1.

As a result, increases its electrical resistance, dor in a Wheatätcnesolieii bridge Lestimnit " -irl. A device of this type is shown schematically in the drawing. The heated wire i lies in a 1leß'kaininer 2, @hirch which leads the gas to be tested by means of the pipe connections 3 and d 7 combined to form a Wheatstone bridge. The change in resistance of the wire i is read off on the galvanometer 8. The current is taken from the network g with the interposition of a normal switching resistor les to. The second resistance wire; read gas to be tested can be itself deprived of its combustible components.

Der Einführung derartiger Meßapparate stand bisher der nicht unbeträchtliche Stromverbrauch 'hemmend iin Wege. Denn um die erforderliche ZünAtemperatur zu erreichen, muß eine gewisse elektrische Querschnittsbelastung des -.\Ießdrahtes erreicht sein; dessen Ouerschnitt kann aber nicht beliebig gering gemacht werden, Ja sonst bei der hohen Temperatur die Bruchgefahr zu groß wird. Durch die Erfindung soll nun der Stromverbrauch herabgesetzt werden.The introduction of such measuring devices was not inconsiderable so far Power consumption in ways. Because in order to reach the required ignition temperature, a certain electrical cross-sectional loading of the wire must be achieved; but its cross-section cannot be made as small as desired, otherwise with the high temperature the risk of breakage is too great. The invention is now intended to the power consumption can be reduced.

LTni bei ,gegebenem Meßstrom eine möglichst hoheEmpfindlichkeit bei einer Wheatstones---hen Widerstanrisbestiminung zu erzielen, müssen bekanntlich die beiden Teile, in die der Strom sich verzweigt, gleichen Widerstand haben. Von diesem Grundsatz, welcher sonst immer wenigstens angenähert eingehalten wird, wird gemäß der Erfindung abgewichen, die Verminderung der Empfindlichkeit also absichtlich in Kauf genommen. Die beiden Vergleichswiderstände 6 und 7 werden nämlich um das Vielfache größer gemacht als der Widerstand der beiden Meßdrähte i und 5. Beispielsweise betragen sie Glas io- oder 2ofache. Dadurch ist es möglich, den Stromverbrauch fast bis auf die Hälfte herabzusetzen. Denn während sonst der durch 6 u1111 7 gebildete Zweig der Wheatstoneschen Brücke denselben Stroin verbrauchen würde wie die Heizdrähte i uui(1 5, verbraucht er nunmehr nur einen wesentlich kleineren Teil les Stromes, bei den oben beispielsweise angegebenen Verhältnissen nur den i o. oder 2o. Teil. Die Verringerung der Empfindlichkeit der Messung, die dadurch entsteht, ist bei derartigen Apparaten in der Tat auch unbedenklich. Denn der der Stromquelle 9 entnommene Strom muß mit Rücksicht auf die Heizwirkung erheblich höher bemessen werden, als es mit Rücksicht auf die Messung allein erforderlich wäre. Die zur Verfügung stehende Empfindlichkeit ist daher reichlich groß, und ihre Herabsetzung vermindert den Wert der Messung nicht. Zwecks Durchführung der Erfindung muß die Wheatstonesche Brücke natürlich so angeordnet sein, daß die Widerstände 6 und 7 in dem einen Stromzweige liegen, die Prüfdrähte i und 5 in dem anderen.LTni with a given measuring current as high a sensitivity as possible A Wheatstones --- hen resistance risk determination must be known the two parts into which the current branches have the same resistance. from this principle, which is otherwise always at least approximately adhered to, is adhered to deviated according to the invention, so the reduction in sensitivity was intentional accepted. The two comparison resistors 6 and 7 are namely Made many times greater than the resistance of the two measuring wires i and 5. For example they are io- or 2-fold glass. This makes it possible to reduce the power consumption almost cut down to half. Because while otherwise the one formed by 6 u1111 7 Branch of the Wheatstone Bridge would use the same stroin as the heating wires i uui (1 5, it now only consumes a much smaller part of the current, in the ratios given above, for example, only the i o. or 2o. Part. The resulting reduction in the sensitivity of the measurement is at such devices are in fact harmless. Because the one taken from the power source 9 With regard to the heating effect, electricity must be rated considerably higher than it would be necessary in consideration of the measurement alone. The one available Sensitivity is therefore quite large, and its degradation decreases the value the measurement does not. In order to carry out the invention, the Wheatstone Bridge of course, be arranged so that the resistors 6 and 7 in one of the branches lie, test wires i and 5 in the other.
